Conventionally, a grinder is just a common herb mill made for crushing rough plant parts or dried harvest fruit to a fine and suitable substance. This procedure allows to leave the necessity of a scissors or a mezzaluna and making a grinder a very helpful tool.

different types of grinder

Grinder / Herb Mills are available in great varity which differ in material, equipment and finishing. First we want to have a look on the material. Grinders are usually made of

Metal grinder

…viewed as the most robust and durable grinder, but it always worth a 2nd eye on the finishing and the principle operation.For example, you surely do not want to have a rest of paint in your crushed herbs. Also pieces of rust can ruin the results. For best results take care to choose a modern grinder made by a CNC milling cutter: Better avoid to select one with nails instead of integrated peaks.

If you want to get very fine results, there a a lot of grinders with a sieve, which will help to avoid rough parts in your grinding.



Wooden Grinder

Usually, wooden grinders are not completly made of wood, but will have at least metal peaks. These parts are normally nailed and not cutted, so it can happened that peaks are breaking during intensive action. Sure: wooden grinders are looking more rustical than metal mills, but wood is not as durable as metal, of course.



Acrylic Grinder

Acrylic Grinder are the cheapest available herb mills and do a good job on tour or if used only frequently. Same as wooden grinders you cant expect a long lifetime, because the material is rather thin in most cases and peaks are the most stable. As a pro i got to mention acryl grinder as not vulnerable to rust. There are no metal parts with the most acrylic grinder.
