Collection: Herb Grinders

One of the most worthwhile investments you can make as a flower lover is a grinder.

Essentially hand grinding is reducing the potency of your weed. The solution to this is too browse our grinders for sale at Dankcave!

An up and coming innovation in the grinder world is the electric grinder. The consistency of your ground flower is an important factor, for vaporizing and burning. These electric weed grinders take the hassle out of manually grinding your weed and ensure a consistent grind every time. 

The main distinction between grinder styles besides manual vs electric is how many pieces they are built with.

A 2 piece grinder is the most basic. This grinder is made of two symmetrical pieces with teeth that can close to grind together. Once ground, you open the pieces and the herb is between the teeth. 

A 3 piece grinder also has two symmetrical pieces with teeth that grind your herb, except there is a whole for the ground herb to fall through. This is caught in the third piece which is a chamber that collects all the ground herb.

A 4 piece grinder has everything a three piece grinder has except at the bottom of the collection chamber, there is a kief catcher. This kief is a potent powdery substance that gets caught in a mesh screen that your ground herb can't pass through. You can use this kief to make edible extracts or sprinkle inside your blunt, joint or bowl.

As with many smoking accessories, you can find grinders made in a variety of materials. Most common materials used to make grinders are metal, acrylic and wood. These materials will vary in effectiveness, price point and of course, personal style preference.
