As one of the most significant accessories a stoner needs, weed grinders are used to break up cannabis flowers. The action of twisting and pressing symbolizes the start of a beautiful experience. However, it can be tricky for us to choose which kind of herb grinders to use; there are just so many options. Here we provide you with the ultimate guide to picking a grinder just for your needs. When comparing grinders, several parameters need to be considered: layers, material, and additional functions.
Layers
1-Layer
Traditionally there’s no one-layer grinder due to the mechanism. But we have grinder cards, which are cheese grater-like metal sheets. You can grind a flower by moving it up and down against the grinding sheet.
2-Layer
The most basic weed grinders design is with two pieces of grinding teeth to construct a chamber. A 2 pieces grinder is always more compact and affordable than its counterparts; you can always stash one of them in your purse or coat pocket.
3-Layer
Adding one more layer below the grinding chamber provides a storage volume for ground weed. Most of the time, in a three-piece design, the material would grind right into the base, allowing you to prevent the process of pouring out the herbs after grinding.
4-Layer
This time we are adding a layer of filtration to the grinder. While grinding, tiny bits and dust particles of the material are also created. Kief or the cannabis crystal is separated from the ground flower chunks via a filter and collected by the bottom layer for later use; you can either smoke kief on its own or sprinkle it on weed flower to boost the hit. A scraper is always included to assist you in managing the kief, filtering the ground weed, and cleaning the grinder teeth.
5-Layer
With another storage chamber on top of the grinder, a five-piece design provides you a place to either dry flowers or ground weed.
Material
Today’s most popular grinders are mostly made of metal or plastics in the market.
Metal grinders can offer you a sturdy feel on the hands, and some of them are very classy to look at and play with, so some people even treat it as décor. Generally, three metals are used on grinders: zinc alloy, aluminum alloy, and stainless steel.

On the other hand, plastic grinders have a different set of unique characteristics that users love. Besides the obvious advantages of being very affordable and lightweight, plastics are easy to maneuver during manufacturing. Their shapes can be very different from the traditional grinder; for example, designing a grinder into a skull is doable in this way, making it more stylish. Furthermore, special plastics can be used to make appearances that other materials cannot achieve: we use acrylic or polycarbonate to make weed grinders and use biodegradable plastic to make eco-friendly grinders. However, some weed smokers may have some concerns about possible plastic shavings from the grinder left in the ground herb. Here at Horns Bee, we understand the health issue other cheaply made plastic grinds can introduce to our customers. Hence we design every grinder precisely to prevent any material wearing from friction.
However, plastic material cannot offer metallic grinders’ shiny looks and smooth finishes or the solid feel in hand. To preserve both advantages of a plastic grinder, we introduce a brand new concept: tinplate wrapped grinders. A tinplate grinder has the quality of being super light and portable while still containing a metal coating. Using tinplate also lets you print customized patterns or images on the grinder surface. What’s more, 3D texturing is also available to make the character on the surface pops out more aggressively.
Additional Functions
You need to consider this when what you want is more than just a generic marijuana grinder. Grinding can sometimes get tiring, and you can consider an electric grinder. Instead of pressing and twitting with your own hands, a hit on a button can deliver you plenty of ground weed. Also, when you use a pre rolled cone while smoking blunt, a grinder pre roll machine would suit your need very well. With a grinder mounted on the top of a cone loader, you can grind the herb right into the joint paper cone. Or maybe you want to use rolling paper to make the joint; accessories like a cone maker or a paper roller can be used and even adapted to the grinder blunt roller machine. Even better, why not combine the electric grinder and the cone filler? With this automatic all-in-one herb grinder , what you need to do is load the materials and hit the button, and a fresh packed joint is presented to you. With the included height adjustment piece, you can roll with either a king size pre roll cone or 1 1/4 cone. Additionally, as mentioned earlier about the grinding plate, we have a device that helps with the experience. This is a vibrating cone filler that allows you to grind the weeds into a funnel directly, and the shaking process can help fill a paper cone.
Adding to that, we also have grinders that are combined with stash jars. For example, we have a grinder that itself contains a huge storage chamber that acts as a smell proof container; also, we can have a grinder mounted on either the bottom or top of an air tight jar, making both your necessities into one. In this way the leak proof container can provide you with a large volume to preserve fresh unground flowers.
