Grinders are a crucial part of your dry herb experience, and believe it or not, some people still don’t have one in their stash box. A finely ground dry herb goes a long way in terms of session length, flavor, and stash conservation. Sometimes a grinder can create too fine of a grind, leaving pockets un-vaped and needing to be stirred every couple of draws; a “fluffy yet fine” grind is exactly what you need delivered from an herb grinder. Let’s take a look at what grinders can boost your next session and help your vape reach its full potential.

Santa Cruz Shredder 4-Piece Grinder/Sifter
The Santa Cruz Shredder 4-Piece Grinder is worth highlighting because of its innovative features that bring out the best in your dry herb. This revolutionary grinder is crafted with a screen that sifts the smallest pollen particles into the bottom chamber so you can save it for later sessions. The anodized finish makes the Santa Cruz Shredder 4-Piece Grinder tough against scratches, thread damage, and tooth damage.
One of the standout features of the Santa Cruz Shredder 4-Piece Grinder is its innovative tooth design. The teeth aren't designed to be sharp-edged; sharp-edged teeth can easily dull, chip off, and even end up in your dry herb after heavy use. Instead, the Santa Cruz Shredder 4-Piece Grinder is equipped with squared-off teeth—leaving your ground dry herb fluffier than traditional grinders.
The ultra-powerful magnetic connection ensures your grinder top remains secure, while still allowing it to turn easily in either direction. Santa Cruz designed the Shredder with a unique threading pattern that protects the threads from grinding against each other while trying to connect lowering the chances of it getting stuck.
