Anyone have any quick contraptions for grinding up to a lb of biomass quickly?
Right now I’m manually grinding up my material prior to packing into spools for extraction, and it’s a kind of a pain. I’m using a mesh strainer and forcing it through. It’s a good consistency, but I’m wondering of there is something out there that can handle this volume of materials a little faster.
Looking online, I can either find tiny hand grinders, or there’s machines to handle larger volumes, but nothing that handles about 1/2-1# of material.
I might be missing the mark here with what you are looking for, however I know Custom Cones makes a nice grinder that’ll do 1 lb/minute. Not sure how fine you are trying to grind it or how much money you want to spend, if any. There’s is $2500. Works great for pre-roll making not sure about your application.
Haha, yeah, that’s a little too big for me. I’m only doing personal batches, and it’s only about a lb max I’m grinding. Money isn’t too much of a deal, however this is all for personal use so I try to minimize purchases.
It would be nice to do my whole batch in a minute though!
Thanks for the input, but that machine is much too big for me.
I used to do that, but where I’m at now, dry ice is freaking hard to come by so I don’t get any until the day of extracting, and I pack my tubes in advance.
It’s so weird to me, I can only get dry ice from a single florist here, and they must wonder wtf I’m doing with 15lbs of dry ice every 6 weeks or so lol.
Don’t forget to check the links below the first post. They point at all the other threads the above link has been posted in (so chances are they are relevant )
Thanks! For some reason I’m dumb today and didn’t see that thread when I searched.
I do remember that thread now, and went with a strainer, it’s a great consistency for packing, but I’m mushing it through there with my hand, which is painfully slow. I thought about a ricer as well, but still would take a little too long (I’m lazy, and impatient, I know).
I’ll probably rig up something like this if I don’t like the mulcher or blender:
@clouds was kind enough to point this out to me awhile ago, it’s something @Graywolf posted back in the day, preferably I’d build with a smaller hole size though.
Just was hoping to save a little time and not have to diy this.
I think I have an answer to my question now, as always, thanks every one!
Mulcher/blender with glass jar.
If not to my liking
Build manual nug musher.
In both scenarios, I’ll be drying my materials, and if I do the screen, I’ll freeze the material in my deep freezer prior to processing. But would you freeze things for the blender or mulcher? I’m thinking no?
