如何清洁金属研磨机：完整的深层清洁指南

干净的研磨机磨得更好，使用时间更长，并防止浪费的基夫卡在树脂堆积中。 本指南使用冷冻和异丙醇技术教授金属大麻研磨机的快速清洁和深度清洁方法。

快速回答

深层清洁金属研磨机：拆开所有碎片并保存，冷冻20-30分钟，使树脂变脆，刷并挖出冷冻块，在90%以上的异丙醇中浸泡20-30分钟，用刷子在热水中擦洗，完全干燥，重新组装。 每2-4周清洁一次，供日常用户使用。

为什么要清洁您的研磨机？

定期清洁的好处：

• 更平滑的磨削（阻力较小）
• 更好的研磨一致性
• 防止大麻废物（卡在树脂中）
• 延长磨床寿命
• 保持 Kief 屏幕畅通无阻
• 线程转动更轻松
• 看起来和执行像新的一样

不清洗：

• 磨削变得困难
• 牙齿被粘住
• 屏幕堵塞（无基夫收藏）
• 线条粘贴和条带
• 最终完全抓住

---

多久清洁一次

快速刷子清洁：

• 每使用 5-10 次后
• 需要2分钟
• 防止沉重的堆积

深层清洁（冷冻+酒精）：

• 日常用户: 每2-4周
• 每周用户: 每2-3个月
• 偶尔的用户: 每4-6个月

标志它需要清洁：当转弯变得困难或屏幕看起来堵塞时

一步一步：深层清洁方法

步骤一：完全拆卸

拆开每件：

• 顶部磨床
• 底部腔室（如果是 3 或 4 件）
• 屏幕（如果存在）
• Kief Catcher（如果是4件）

布置所有的碎片 - easier to track and clean individually

---

第二步：先保存你的基夫

关键步骤：

• 小心地从捕手室刮掉基夫
• 保存在单独的容器中
• 不要失去强力的三甲！

使用基夫刮刀 that came with grinder or small spoon

---

第三步：冷冻20-30分钟

为什么冷冻有效：

• 冷使树脂变脆（不粘）
• 块很容易折断
• 减少需要的擦洗

How:

• 将所有研磨机碎片放入冷冻袋中
• 冻结20-30分钟（不需更长时间）
• 大麻花可以保持在室温

---

第四步：刷和轻敲冷冻树脂

立即从冰箱中取出：

Brushing:

• 在牙齿上使用硬牙刷
• 磨砂室
• 轻轻刷屏（不损坏）

Tapping:

• 将碎片放在垃圾/纸上
• 冷冻树脂块掉落
• 比刮粘树脂容易得多

这消除了 60-70% 的积累 without solvents

---

第五步：异丙醇浸泡

酒精选择：

• 90-99%异丙基: 最好的，最快的
• 70%: 工作但速度较慢
• Below 70%: 不要用（水太多）

Soaking:

1。 将所有部件放入罐/容器中

2. 用异丙醇完全覆盖

3. 至少浸泡 20-30 分钟

4. 顽固积聚：浸泡 1-2 小时

发生了什么：酒精溶解树脂/THC残留物

---

第六步：在热水下擦洗

浸泡后：

1。 从酒精中取出碎片

2. 用热水在热水下用刷子擦洗每块

3. 注意：

- Between teeth

- Threads

- Screen holes

- Corners and crevices

树脂应轻松冲洗掉 after alcohol soak

---

Step 7: Dry Completely

CRITICAL - must be 100% dry:

Drying options:

• Towel dry thoroughly
• Air dry for 30 minutes
• Use hair dryer on low (careful - hot metal)

Why complete drying matters:

• Moisture + cheap metal = rust
• Alcohol residue tastes bad
• Wet grinder gums up immediately

---

Step 8: Reassemble

Once fully dry:

• Put grinder back together
• Should turn smoothly
• Looks brand new
• Grinds like new

Test: Load small amount and grind - should be effortless

---

Quick Cleaning Method (5 Minutes)

When you don't have time for deep clean:

1. Disassemble grinder

2. Brush out loose material with toothbrush

3. Use toothpick for stuck bits

4. Wipe down with damp cloth

5. Dry and reassemble

This maintains grinder between deep cleans

---

Alternative Method: Boiling Water

For food-safe grinders only (quality metal):

1. Boil water in pot

2. Drop grinder pieces in (5-10 minutes)

3. Remove and brush under cold water

4. Dry thoroughly

Pros: No chemicals, effective

Cons: Can damage cheap grinders, hot to handle, can strip anodization

---

Screen Cleaning (4-Piece Grinders)

The screen clogs first:

Prevention:

• Brush screen after every few grinds
• Tap grinder to knock kief through
• Don't press cannabis into screen

Deep clean clogged screen:

1. Freeze grinder

2. Brush frozen screen vigorously

3. Use toothpick for stubborn holes

4. Alcohol soak if still clogged

Nuclear option: Replace screen (some grinders have replaceable screens)

---

Common Cleaning Mistakes

Mistake: Using Water Only

Problem: Water doesn't dissolve resin (oil-based)

Solution: Must use alcohol or boiling water. Cold/warm water just makes mess.

---

Mistake: Not Drying Completely

Problem: Rust, immediate re-gunking

Solution: Dry thoroughly, let air dry extra 15 minutes to be safe

---

Mistake: Losing Kief Down Drain

Problem: Rinsing kief away while cleaning

Solution: Save kief FIRST before any cleaning

---

Mistake: Using Soap

Problem: Soap residue tastes terrible, hard to rinse completely

Solution: Alcohol only (or boiling water). Never use soap.

---

Maintenance Tips

Tip 1: Don't Over-Pack

Grinding too much at once = faster buildup

Tip 2: Brush After Every 5-10 Grinds

2-minute maintenance prevents heavy buildup

Tip 3: Store Empty

Don't leave ground flower in grinder overnight - creates sticky mess

Tip 4: Quality Matters

Good grinders (Santa Cruz, Space Case) have anodized finishes that resist sticking

Tip 5: Coin Trick

Add small coin to collection chamber - knocks kief through screen during use

---

What About the Resin?

Grinder resin contains:

• THC (yes)
• Plant material
• Metal particles
• Dust and debris

Should you save it?

Arguments for:

• Contains THC
• Can be smoked in desperate times
• Some people collect it

Arguments against:

• Contains metal particles (unhealthy)
• Harsh, tastes bad
• Kief from kief catcher is way better
• Not worth health risk

Recommendation: Discard resin, save kief

Cleaning Different Grinder Materials

Aluminum Grinders (Most Common):

Safe methods:

• Freezing ✅
• Isopropyl alcohol ✅
• Boiling water ✅ (quality ones)
• Brushing ✅

Avoid: Steel wool (scratches), harsh chemicals

---

Titanium Grinders:

Very durable - all methods safe

---

Anodized Grinders:

Be gentle:

• Avoid abrasives (scratches protective coating)
• Boiling can strip anodization
• Stick to freezing + alcohol

---

Troubleshooting

Problem: Threads Stripped/Cross-Threaded

Cause: Forcing grinder when dirty/misaligned

Fix: Clean threads thoroughly with brush, align carefully when reassembling

---

Problem: Screen Permanently Clogged

Cause: Years of buildup, poor quality screen

Solution:

• Extended alcohol soak (overnight)
• Ultrasonic cleaner (if available)
• Replace screen
• Buy new grinder

---

Problem: Grinder Still Sticky After Cleaning

Causes:

• Didn't dry completely (alcohol residue)
• Low-quality alcohol (too much water)
• Cheap grinder (poor coating)

Solution: Re-clean with 90%+ alcohol, dry longer, consider upgrade

---

How to Clean Specific Grinder Parts

Teeth:

Most important - where grinding happens

• Brush between every tooth
• Use toothpick for crevices
• Alcohol soak crucial

Threads:

Easy to neglect, critical for function

• Brush threads carefully
• Use Q-tip for deep threads
• Clean buildup causes seizing

Screen:

Most delicate part

• Brush gently (don't damage holes)
• Alcohol soak helps most
• Careful with toothpick (don't tear screen)

Kief Catcher:

Easiest to clean (smooth chamber)

• Save kief first!
• Simple wipe usually enough
• Alcohol for stuck-on kief
