    Grinders for Life, the Brilliant Cut grinder.

    It’s a 3 piece grinder (kief catches are pointless unless you want the sleepy aspect, light and air degrades the THC compounds over time) that uses magnets instead of threads.

    I have arthritis so unscrewing sticky metal all the time was a no-go. Also a lot of metals make hands smell.

    The brilliant cut looks gorgeous, is anodized, and is designed so that even if you stuff the fuck out of it it will still grind and no pieces get left unground and stuck in the center. They are a little pricey considering, but I have cleaned my grinders twice since 2019. They just don’t gunk up, they stay smooth and clean.

    I probably was going through a grinder or two every year, I’ve had so many from Amazon ones to sharpstone to space cases. They’re all the same, realistically. The difference lies in how often you need to clean it and how easy it is to use. Of my 2 decades using grinders this is the first time I’ve not been worried about hands smelling, weird textures or metal flaking, or inconsistent grinds and sticky edges.

    One thing to note: the color anodized at one point people had been reporting flaking. It also may have just been a temporary issue as I haven’t seen any reports since that ~6 months. I have 2 and use them daily, I wouldn’t say I’m exactly gentle with them and I’ve not had any flaking. If it is a concern though, they have a regular style as well

        Nice, you won’t be disappointed honestly. I mean, I can’t do anything about it if you are but I highly doubt you will be!!

        Did you go for a specific color or size?

          I got a factory second one because I didn’t want to wait 6-8 weeks for delivery, it’s the coarse plate, black/purple/black. All their colors are gorgeous though wow

            I love that they do factory seconds, got mine there as well. Orange/Red/Black, looks awesome and was good as new. I think I would have chosen Orange/Green/Black or Orange/Black/Green otherwise but this comes pretty close.

      I have had many grinders but the BCG is the best I have used. I have been using it every day for nearly 2 years and it’s still working flawlessly.

      Cant second this strongly enough. Have had mine for something over a year now and it hasnt needed cleaning yet. It feels awesome to use every time and all the details are so well thought out, like the magnet part in the crushing chamber has a ridge so no weed gets stuck in between. I think it is the best investment in weed accessories Ive made yet.
