The difference is that <i>this model contains a chamber at the bottom where it accumulates the kief released by the buds during crushing.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The grinder is uncovered and a bud is introduced, closed and turned a few turns, so far it works as usual. Then the lower half is unscrewed, which contains both the compartment where the ground weed is, and the chamber that holds the kief, which is also unscrewed and separated.

Then we take the grinder card with one hand, and with the other the bud we want to consume. We rub the bud on the surface of the card where it has the holes, from one side to the other and doing some pressure, as when we grate cheese, but controlling that the <b>chopped weed<\/b> falls on the tray or what we have prepared.

I see a lot of people who take a whole bud, put it inside, make 3 or 4 turns, open it and make a joint with all crushed vegetable material, even stems! Don\u2019t do it please, <i>before grinding the cannabis make sure you have removed all the stems that the bud contains<\/i>, you must try to reduce the risks associated with combustion.<\/p>\n<p>The central part of the grinder chops less than by its perimeter, this is because<i> in the center no matter how much you turn there will be hardly any friction<\/i>, that\u2019s why it is more interesting to put the dry flowers in any part of the perimeter that in the center.Another important point in the <b>maintenance of a grinder<\/b> is the cleanliness. As we know, cannabis resin is very sticky, it adheres to any surface, especially when we squeeze and break. With each joint we make, we accumulate resin in the spikes and chambers of the grinder, and gradually begins to have an impact on how it works, which is increasingly difficult to turn or close it properly.
