Operation Tips

How To Operate

  • Remove the top and insert the whole herb into the housing. There is no need to break apart your herb as long as it fits into the milling chamber.
  • The housing can be full but not so much it protrudes from the top or over the center rod.
  • Replace top but do not compress the flower like in a traditional grinder (it will compact it and be more difficult to process).
  • Apply even and gentle pressure to the top while twisting in a back and forth motion. Listen for a change in sound to signal the top has bottomed out and milling is complete.
  • Remove the 1/4 turn lower catch to access harvest

 

Premium Edition Rotor Key 

  • Clean rotor face and flutes so key can fully engage
  • Place knob face up on a stable, flat, grippy surface (i.e. silicone mat on a countertop is great)
  • Engage key into rotor. Press down hard while turning counter-clockwise to loosen.

Premium Stainless Steel Maintenance

  • We chose stainless because of its hygienic and durability properties, similar to kitchenware and medical devices.
  • Minimize dry operation. The mill was designed to operate for long periods between cleanings and during normal operation a thin layer of natural flower oils reduces friction and wear.
  • We recommend applying a thin layer of food safe lubricant (Mill Wax, or similar) after cleaning to reduce friction and improve wear resistance.
