Herb grinders are typically manual or electric and each type has its strengths and weaknesses.
Manual grinders, as the name suggests, need some elbow grease because you have to do the grinding yourself. Even though they require more effort, it is easier to adjust how thick or how fine you want the ground herb to be with manual grinders. Plus the herb is collected in a handy compartment, so there is less mess and the herb is easier to load.
Electric grinders are easier to use but it can be difficult to control how fine you want the herb to be ground. Also, most electric grinders don’t have a built-in compartment to deposit the herb once the grinding is complete. They also typically hold less herb than manual grinders do, plus you have to worry about battery life or mechanical failure. For those reasons, a manual grinder is a preferred method of preparing the herb for most seasoned vapers. Here are the reasons for using a good one.
A good grinder breaks down the herb, which increases its surface area. Why is this important? A large surface area means that all of the herb in the oven gets vaped more evenly. You won’t have one area getting more heat than the other, and a more even vape results in the hot air passing through more of the herbs, thus releasing the THC, CBD, and all the other cannabinoids in the herb. This results in a stronger flavor and a richer aroma, plus more vapor will be released because more of the herb gets heated.
A good grinder is easily the best way to get the most out of your herb because the increased surface area means that you can get a lot of vapor using a relatively small amount. Since you can vape a lot with a little, your herb will last longer. And since a grinder breaks down every last bit of herb, you can use every last bit of herb, so none of it will go to waste.
The trichomes found on the cannabis plants’ resin glands are collectively called kief, and they have a much higher concentration of THC than the other parts of the cannabis plant. A good manual grinder will separate the kief from the rest of the herb via a fine mesh screen. The kief is then deposited in a chamber where it can be used for later. You can collect as much kief as you want and sprinkle it on your ground herb for a future—and much more potent—vape session.
If you want to get the most out of your herb and your vaporizer, then you need a good grinder. It increases the efficiency of each component, which allows you to get the most amount of vapor and the best possible vapor. Not to mention that a good grinder saves you money, and who doesn’t like to save money? Not you, so get a good grinder before you use that brand new vaporizer if you want to maximize your herb supply.
