To clean a cannabis grinder, disassemble it and soak the metal parts in 90% isopropyl alcohol for 30 minutes. Then scrub with a small brush, rinse with warm water, and let everything dry completely before reassembling. For stubborn resin, use a toothpick or a dedicated grinder tool to gently scrape the teeth and screen.
Regular cleaning keeps your grinder working smoothly and preserves the flavor of your herbs. Here are the key features of a properly cleaned grinder:

Most cannabis grinders are made from aluminum, stainless steel, or titanium. Aluminum is lightweight but can be damaged by harsh solvents, while anodized coatings offer protection. Stainless steel is durable and corrosion-resistant, making it ideal for alcohol cleaning. Avoid cleaning acrylic or plastic grinders with alcohol, as it can cause clouding or cracking. Always check your grinder's manufacturer guidelines before using any solvent.

How often should you clean a cannabis grinder?
Clean your grinder every 2-4 weeks with regular use, or whenever grinding becomes difficult or resin buildup is visible.
Can you clean a grinder with isopropyl alcohol?
Yes, 90% or higher isopropyl alcohol is safe for metal grinders. Soak parts for 30 minutes, then scrub and rinse. Do not use on plastic or acrylic.
What if you don't have isopropyl alcohol?
You can use warm soapy water and a stiff brush for light cleaning, but alcohol is best for dissolving resin. Vinegar can also work as a milder alternative.
