BUBONIC CHRONIC WACKY GRINDER

Understanding the components shows why this grinder is such a dependable tool. Each part is designed to work together to process your herbs efficiently, from grinding to collection.

Choosing the right size depends on your lifestyle. Both the 2-inch and 2.5-inch models offer the same great features and build quality, but their capacity and portability differ slightly.

What Is The Difference Between The 2 And 2.5 Inch Grinders?

The 2-inch (50mm) model is the more compact choice. It's ideal for travel, fitting easily into a pocket or small bag.

While it processes less material at once, it's perfect for personal use and for those who prioritize discretion and portability.

The 2.5-inch (63mm) model is the standard and most popular size. It offers a larger grinding chamber, allowing you to prepare more herb in a single go. This size provides a more substantial grip and is great for regular home use or sharing with friends.

Beyond its funky design, the Bubonic Chronic grinder is packed with features that create a seamless user experience. From the first twist to the final collection, every element is designed for efficiency.

How Does The 4 Piece Design Work?

A 4-piece grinder has three separate chambers that perform distinct tasks.

1. Top Chamber: The lid and grinding section where you place your herb. The sharp teeth do the work here.
2. Middle Chamber: Ground herbs fall through precisely sized holes and land in this chamber, ready for use.
3. Bottom Chamber: A fine stainless steel screen at the base of the middle chamber allows the most potent pollen (kief) to filter through and collect here over time.

What Are The Benefits Of A Kief Catcher?

The bottom chamber, or kief catcher, is a major advantage of a 4-piece grinder. It passively collects the fine, potent trichomes that fall off your herb during grinding. This allows you to save this powerful concentrate for later, either to sprinkle over your material for an extra kick or use on its own. The included scraper tool makes it easy to gather every last bit.

How to Use This 4-Piece Grinder (6 Steps)

1. Place small-to-medium pieces of herb in the top chamber, between the teeth.
2. Place the magnetic lid on top to secure the chamber.
3. Rotate the lid back and forth about 10-15 times until resistance eases.
4. Unscrew the middle chamber to access your freshly ground herb.
5. Use your ground herb as desired.
6. After several uses, unscrew the bottom chamber to collect the accumulated kief with the scraper tool.

The Bubonic Chronic grinder offers a great balance of personality and performance in the mid-range market. Here’s how it stacks up against other common types of grinders under $60.

Keeping your grinder clean ensures it performs smoothly and lasts for years. Regular maintenance prevents buildup, sticky threads, and ensures your herbs taste fresh.

What Is The Best Way To Clean An Aluminum Grinder?

For a deep clean, you can use isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt, or a dedicated grinder cleaner.

1. Disassemble: Take apart all four pieces of your grinder.
2. Soak: Place the pieces in a zip-top bag or container with isopropyl alcohol. If you want to preserve kief on the screen, set that piece aside.
3. Shake: Add a teaspoon of coarse salt and shake the container gently for a few minutes. The salt acts as a mild abrasive to remove residue.
4. Rinse: Remove the pieces and rinse them thoroughly with hot water.
5. Dry: Let all pieces dry completely before reassembling. This is crucial to prevent any sticking or corrosion.

For a quick clean, use a small brush (like a stiff paintbrush or toothbrush) to clear out residue from the teeth, threads, and screen.
