2″ Biodegradable Grinder

The 2" Biodegradable Grinder is a compact two-piece herb grinder designed for people who want portability without the environmental baggage. At 2 inches across, it disappears into pockets and bags while still delivering a consistent grind. The biodegradable construction means when this one finally gives out, it breaks down instead of sitting in a landfill for the next few centuries. Available in multiple colors, it's the kind of piece you grab a few of and scatter wherever you might need one.

Key benefits

• Genuinely pocketable — 2-inch diameter fits in coin pockets, small bags, and travel kits without creating bulk or uncomfortable edges
• Breaks down when you're done with it — Biodegradable materials decompose under the right conditions instead of becoming permanent plastic waste
• Two-piece means no fuss — Grinding teeth up top, collection chamber below, nothing else to lose or clog up
• Grab multiples without thinking twice — Keep one in your bag, one at home, one at a friend's place
• Color options — Multiple colors available so you can match your setup or just pick what looks good to you
• All your trichomes stay with your flower — No kief screen means nothing gets separated out before it reaches your bowl or paper

Who this is for

Travelers who don't want to risk their good grinder on the road. People who tend to lose things and need affordable replacements they won't stress about. Anyone trying to cut down on plastic waste without giving up convenience. It's also solid as a dedicated grinder for specific spots — one for the backpack, one for the nightstand, one stashed at a friend's place for sessions there.

How it works

Two-piece grinders keep things simple. Drop your flower into the top chamber, making sure not to overload it — cramming too much in just makes grinding harder. Give the top a few twists in both directions until resistance drops and everything feels loose. Pop it open and your ground material is waiting in the bottom half, ready for whatever comes next.

The lack of a kief screen is actually a feature here, not a limitation. Everything stays together — all those trichomes that would normally fall through a mesh screen stay mixed with your flower. Every bowl and every roll gets the full experience instead of slowly building a kief collection you might never actually use.

Storage matters more with biodegradable materials than with metal or plastic. Keep it somewhere cool and dry when you're not using it. Moisture accelerates breakdown, which is great for composting but less great if you're still actively using the thing. A drawer or stash box works perfectly.

Care and cleaning

Let any residue dry out, then brush or scrape off the buildup. A stiff brush or wooden pick handles most situations. If things get really gunky, a light wipe with isopropyl alcohol works, but don't soak it — that defeats the purpose of choosing biodegradable materials in the first place. The goal is dry cleaning whenever possible.

Frequently asked questions

Will this start breaking down while I'm using it?

No. Biodegradable materials need specific conditions to decompose — sustained moisture, microbial activity, oxygen exposure over time. Normal use in your pocket or bag won't trigger breakdown. It's designed to function like any other grinder during its useful life. The biodegradable part kicks in after disposal, when it's exposed to composting or landfill conditions.

How long can I expect this to last?

With regular use, anywhere from several months to about a year depending on how often you grind and what kind of flower you're working with. Dense, sticky material wears on teeth faster than fluffy, dry flower. It's not meant to be a lifetime piece — it's meant to be a reliable, guilt-free option you can replace without hesitation.

Does the two-piece design grind as well as a four-piece?

The grinding itself is comparable — teeth are teeth. The difference is what happens afterward. Four-piece grinders have screens that separate kief into a bottom chamber. Two-piece grinders keep everything together. If you want to collect kief over time, get a four-piece. If you want all your potency in every session without losing anything to a screen, two-piece actually delivers more consistent results.

Is 2 inches big enough for regular sessions?

For solo use or sessions with one or two people, absolutely. You'll get enough ground flower for a bowl or a paper per load. If you're prepping for a group or doing back-to-back sessions, you'll need to reload more often. That's the tradeoff with any pocket-sized grinder — portability comes at the cost of capacity.

Can this handle really sticky flower?

It can, but resinous material will slow things down and gum up the teeth faster. Break dense or sticky buds into smaller pieces before loading to make grinding easier. If you're consistently working with top-shelf sticky stuff, a metal grinder with sharper, more durable teeth might serve you better for daily use. This one shines for average flower and situations where portability matters most.

What's the best way to clean sticky buildup?

Freeze it for 20-30 minutes first. Cold makes resin brittle and easier to knock loose. Then use a stiff brush or wooden pick to scrape out the chambers and teeth. For stubborn spots, a quick wipe with isopropyl on a cotton swab works. Just don't soak it or leave it wet — dry it thoroughly before storing.

What colors are available right now?

Color availability rotates with inventory. Check current stock on the product page or reach out to see what's in at the moment. If you're ordering multiples, you can usually grab a mix.
