Like mentioned before I think, turn the grinder upside down and grind to your hearts desire. You can turn bud to dust. Flip over and turn once more to pass grind to bottom. That's how I grind for the volcano.

I never used a coffee grinder but imagine it will be more work in the long run with all the recovery of ground flower it will create.

so i tried it out. it doesn't work.
the bud just gets thrown around inside the chamber (probably because it's too light compared to coffee beans) and barely ground up. tiny pieces stick to the plastic, making it hard to empty out completely.

the search for the perfect/most effortless grinding method continues.

My grinder turns weed into dust if you run it long enough. Keep trying.

There is a lot of variation in result.

I think it was a Salton we had.

Nah the the coffee grinder (mull-o-matic) is bullshit for lazy people to use.
Get a pollen/trich catching grinder and thank me later (or the dude that invented em).
Coffee grinders catch the trichs but also the bits of shit in a bad way and they're farked to clean/harvest the kief. Save ya electricity, a decent 4-part manual grinder is really just as easy but better in the long run.
Unless you're grinding like a 1/4 at a time for 4+ impatient smokers multiple times a day, then it's not really worth it.

To each their own, eh? Opinions abound.

Never had a problem cleaning. I tend to hippy pick these days. Inefficient and time consuming.

When I used a grinder to pulverize weed to make cannabutter, the resin all stuck to the bottom. The next time I make coffee with that grinder it should be an interesting taste.

I use a food processor, it works far more effectively when the material is -25ºF
