Forums Steel Investment Casting

Hey everybody, I've been considering getting a new weed grinder, and I've been seeing a lot of alternatives for stainless steel ones. But I'm a bit torn – they seem durable, but are they worth the supplementary cost?

I've experienced a stainless steel grinder for a while now, and I must admit, durability-wise, it's been amazing. I've dropped it, banged it around, and it's still well-off. Plus, the stainless steel construction means it's easy to wash and doesn't corrode.

That's excellent to know,. However how about the cost? Are stainless steel grinders significantly more expensive than other materials?

I've accomplished some research on this too, and yeah, stainless steel grinders do tend to be pricier upfront compared to, say, aluminum or plastic ones. but if you think about it long-term, the durability may possibly actually save you money in the end since you won't have to substitute it as oftentimes.

I see your point,. but what on the grinding performance? Does stainless steel do a difference in how nicely it grinds when compared to more materials?

That's a really good question,. I've heard some people speak that stainless steel grinders provide a smoother, more consistent grind compared to more materials. Can any person confirm this from personal experience?

From my experience, I'd speak yes. The stainless steel teeth seem to stay sharper for longer, resulting in a finer grind overall. Plus, I haven't noticed any metal shavings or residue in my herb, which is continually a plus.

That's excellent to know. I've been on the fence on upgrading to a stainless steel grinder, however hearing on the durability, efficiency, and ease of cleaning is absolutely swaying me towards creating the investment.

Yeah, I was skeptical at first too, but I haven't looked back since switching to stainless steel. It's 1 of those cases where you get what you pay for, and in this case, the supplementary cost seems justified for the quality you're receiving.

Many thanks for sharing your experiences, every person. I assume I'm convinced now to provide stainless steel a have a go. It seems like the benefits definitely outweigh the initial price.
