High all, hope everyone is doing well on this fine day!
I just have a question for all you expert smokers out there.
I have a space case grinder. I love it! One of the best things I've ever bought in my entire life. It has the screen and kief catcher on it, so I get lots of yummy kief, like so:
Anyhow, that's not the point (although it's pretty cool)
The grinder itself has gotten pretty dirty with plant material/kief and stuff like that. I do scrape it occasionally, but its virtually IMPOSSIBLE to get all of the stuff out of it as some is caked on the grinder itself, and other kief is in crevices that is hard to get out.
Previously when I clean the grinder I use ISOPROPYL rubbing alcohol...Usually just soaking it overnight and then pouring the ISO out in the morning, leaving me with a beautifully, squeaky clean grinder.
However, I just had the idea of salvaging that ISO. If I put the grinder in a metal or ceramic bowl/container, and then soak the grinder in that with the ISO....Can I harvest the kief by letting the ISO evaporate and then scraping the remains?
Is this possible? Worth it?? What is the best way to keep it clean? How do I ensure no dirt/dust floats into the ISO mix while still allowing it enough airflow to evaporate? Whats the best way to have the stuff evaporate?
Thanks in advance...Just want to get the most out of my grinder!
