Volcano Grinder for Herbs and Spices Storz Bickel 2 pcs.

Volcano Grinder Storz & Bickel - acrylic, 59 mm

This is the original grinder from Storz & Bickel, the same company that produces the Volcano, Mighty, and Plenty vaporizers - the manufacturer includes it with these devices in the set, and here you can buy it separately. The design is two-part and made of acrylic, with a diameter of 59 mm. The manufacturer emphasizes the sharpness of the teeth: they are supposed to provide finely ground material. Acrylic is a lightweight and transparent material, so you can see through the casing what stage the grinding is at, even with the lid closed. The production is handled by Storz & Bickel GmbH from Tuttlingen, Germany, the same company whose name appears on the vaporizers.

Ingredients and materials

• Material: acrylic - lightweight and transparent
• Construction: two-part, lid and working chamber
• Diameter: 59 mm
• Teeth: described by the manufacturer as very sharp, for fine grinding
• Original part from Storz & Bickel, included with vaporizers of this brand
• Manufacturer: Storz & Bickel GmbH, Tuttlingen, Germany

With this grinder, three things matter. The first is the diameter: 59 mm is a tabletop size, one that you hold in your whole hand and rotate with your entire hand, not just two fingers. The second is the transparent acrylic, which practically changes the way you use the grinder - you can see what is happening inside, so you only open it when the material is already ground. The third is the origin: this is an original part from Storz & Bickel, the same one that the manufacturer puts in the boxes with the Volcano, Mighty, and Plenty vaporizers, so you are buying a factory piece, not a substitute. The manufacturer provides full registration details (Storz & Bickel GmbH, Grubenäcker 5-9, Tuttlingen), so it is clear whose part it is.

How to use

The operation is standard for a two-part grinder:

• Remove the lid and place the material between the teeth, avoiding the center axis
• Put the lid back on and turn a few times in both directions
• Open the grinder and pour the contents into the vaporizer chamber or into a container
• Clean dry, with a brush or toothpick - acrylic does not withstand strong solvents well
• Do not put the grinder in the dishwasher and do not wash it with hot water

For whom

This is a choice for people using a vaporizer, especially one of the Storz & Bickel devices. The manufacturer includes exactly the same grinder with its vaporizers, so you are buying a factory part of this brand. The 59 mm diameter provides a working chamber the size of a saucer, where the material spreads in a single layer instead of piling up. The transparent acrylic is a detail that you will appreciate only in practice, as you can see what is happening inside without opening the lid. However, it should be noted that acrylic is a lightweight material but prone to scratches and cracks when dropped on a hard surface. This is also a single-chamber design, where all the material stays together - to separate the finer fraction, a four-part grinder with a separate container is needed.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the same grinder that comes with the vaporizer?

Yes. This is the original part from Storz & Bickel, included by the manufacturer with the Volcano, Mighty, and Plenty vaporizers. You are buying it here separately, for example as a replacement for a lost one or as a second piece to keep in another location. The brand and workmanship are exactly the same as in the factory set.

What do I get in the package?

Just the grinder, consisting of two parts: the lid and the working chamber. If the number of parts is crucial for you, please write before ordering - we will confirm the contents of the set we are sending.

Why does fine grinding matter for vaporization?

Because the vaporizer chamber heats the material through contact with its surface. The finer the material is ground, the larger its surface area in contact with the chamber wall - this is simple geometry. The manufacturer of the grinder emphasizes the sharpness of the teeth and the fine grinding effect.

How to clean an acrylic grinder?

Dry and gently. Remove residues with a brush or toothpick, and do not wash the casing with hot water or strong solvents, as acrylic becomes cloudy and cracks. The dishwasher is out of the question for the same reason. The easiest way to clean the grinder is right after use, before residues dry between the teeth.

Safety and storage

The teeth of this grinder are very sharp - open and clean it carefully, and remove residues with a brush or toothpick, never with your finger. Acrylic is a lightweight but brittle material: protect the grinder from falling on hard surfaces and from high temperatures. Do not wash it in the dishwasher or with hot water and do not use solvents. Store the grinder in a dry place, out of reach of children and pets.

The grinder is an accessory intended for adults - keep it out of reach of children.
