2.5″ CLASSIC ZINC GRINDER

The 2.5" Classic Zinc Grinder is a five-piece herb grinder built for people who actually care how their flower breaks down. If you like a fluffy, even grind and a kief stash that builds up fast, this sturdy zinc unit is designed to be your daily driver. At 2.5 inches (63.5mm) across, it hits that sweet spot: big enough to prep for the crew, compact enough to toss in a bag.

Why It Works

• Fluffy, consistent grind — Sharp, diamond-shaped teeth chew through dense nugs instead of just mashing them.
• More kief over time — Multi-piece design with a dedicated kief chamber lets the good stuff fall and stay separate.
• Less mess, more control — Included kief scoop makes it easy to move pollen where you want it instead of using your fingers.
• Built to take a beating — Solid zinc construction gives weight and durability so it feels planted in your hand, not flimsy.
• Smooth twist every sesh — Tight machining and a clean thread pattern help prevent grinding or squeaking as it wears in.
• Dialed-in capacity — 2.5 inches (63.5mm) is plenty of room for prepping multiple bowls or a few cones without hogging table space.

Best For

This grinder is made for people who go through enough flower that a cheap plastic piece just doesn't cut it anymore. If you keep a regular rotation of strains and like having a dedicated stash of kief for “bonus hits,” this five-piece is a big upgrade. It also pairs nicely with more durable storage and packaging setups when you're trying to keep your whole kit organized.

How to Use It

Pop the magnetic lid, drop in a few medium-sized pieces of flower (don't overpack it), and twist the top back and forth until everything moves freely. The teeth break your herb down, it falls through the holes onto the middle plate, and finer particles work their way through the screen into the kief chamber below.

When you're ready to reload, unscrew the grinding chamber to access your fluffy herb for bowls, vapes, or whatever gear lives on your dab mat. Over time, you'll notice a nice layer of kief building up in the bottom — that's where the included scoop comes in clutch, so you're not scraping with a card or messing up your nails.

For cleaning, gently tap out loose material, then brush the teeth and screen. For deeper cleans, a quick soak in isopropyl alcohol, thorough rinse, and full dry before reassembly will keep things spinning smoothly.

Fit & Everyday Use

At 2.5 inches (63.5mm), this grinder strikes a nice balance between pocketable and "leave it on the coffee table" size. It's big enough to grind for a few people without constant refilling but still easy to palm and twist, even if you don't have huge hands. If you're building out a complete kit with pipes, papers, and a few backup tools, it fits right in with other daily-driver smoke shop products.

FAQ

• Is this grinder good for daily use?

  Yes. The zinc body and solid tooth pattern are made to handle regular grinding without feeling loose or cheap. If you're breaking down flower most days of the week, this is built with that level of use in mind.

• What's the advantage of a five-piece grinder?

  A five-piece setup gives you separate layers: one for grinding, one for holding ground herb, and another for collecting kief under a screen. That extra separation means less plant material in your kief and an easier time scooping it out when you want to top a bowl or pack something special into your joint tubes.

• Does it really come with a kief scoop?

  Yes, it includes a small scoop that actually fits into the corners of the kief chamber. It beats using a folded piece of paper or your fingernail when you're trying to grab every last bit.

• How should I clean and maintain it?

  For regular upkeep, tap out loose herb and use a soft brush or cotton swab on the teeth and screen. When things start to feel sticky, you can soak the metal parts in isopropyl alcohol, rinse thoroughly with water, and let them dry completely before putting it back together. Keeping the threads and screen clean will help it spin smoothly for longer.

• Will it work with small amounts of herb?

  It handles both small and medium loads well. For tiny amounts, just center the herb over the teeth so everything makes contact. If you often grind very small nugs for micro-dosing or for loading tiny bowls or silicone pipes, this size still works comfortably.

• How fine does it grind?

  The diamond teeth give you a medium-fine grind that works for most bowls and rollers. If you want it a bit finer, just give it a few extra turns; if you like it chunkier, stop once things start moving freely and don't over-twist.

• How does this compare to aluminum grinders?

  Zinc grinders tend to feel heavier and more planted in the hand, which some people prefer. If you're the type to toss your gear in bags or backpacks, that extra heft can feel a little more rugged. Whichever style you lean towards, it still plays nicely alongside your other glass and glass jar storage in a home setup.

If you're ready to retire the old acrylic grinder and step into something sturdier, the 2.5" Classic Zinc Grinder is a simple, effective upgrade that keeps your prep clean, your kief separated, and your flower ready for whatever you're loading next.
