whenever i grind my bud for a joint, it tastes weird and it doesn't feel the same. I know that when i grind it it knocks off some of the crystals but this just makes me want to not smoke joints anymore (keep smoking with my trusty bubbler)
Well i just picked up a $30 4 piece grinder online, i washed it a couple of time before i used it, and i didn't wash with soap because i thought it might do exactly what happened
ive never noticed my grinder effect the taste. and ive had grinders ranging from 10-75 dollars. there might be something on the teeth that is getting on the bud? other than this i really cant imagine why you would be experiencing this problem
Maybe its because you don't have a decent grinder. Maybe the weed you are getting isn't any good. It can be a variety of things
Is it aluminum? Read the forum and do the experiment: http://forum.grasscity.com/other-toking-tools/891555-aluminum-grinders-can-dangerous.html If you find your grinder is dropping tons of shavings into your weed, it could potentially affect the taste. Don't be too scared by the forum either. If you find your grinder is dropping shavings then I would cut back on it's use, but I wouldn't throw it away or anything. Where'd u buy it?
well just dont grind it lol, i break it up by hand and never have a problem, never have a problem when my friend grinds it either though.
That's because when you grind it up it has more surface area so it ignites your bud more evenly and quickly, giving you thicker (harsher) smoke.
I know what you mean. The reason it taste different is because when you grind your bud there is stems inside the bud which when burnt it taste bad. Best thing to do is break the bud up with your finger in to the grinder, trying to not include the stems.
12 years old why bring this thread back ?? Yeah those pesky stems never want to be ignored , hard to get them all out . what grinder is the OP using?? Any pics or brand
i would every now n then use a grinder but i i found i just love the tradition break it apart or crunch it in. i love that
I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED WHY MY GROUND UP WEED TASTES WORSE THAN ROASTING A NUG THANKS FOR THE INSIGHTS GUYS DUDE YOU REALIZE THIS IS THE WHOLE INTERNET RIGHT? PEOPLE HAVE VIEWED THIS PAGE MULTIPLE THOUSANDS OF TIMES LOL.....

WHAT DID YOU CALL IT...."BRINGING BACK" NEWS FLASH IT NEVER WENT ANYWHERE WELCOME TO THE INTERNET ULTRAMAX
As I did 6 minutes ago!!! I got a 45 dollar (Gears) Grinder a year ago in which I have determined that it grinds the weed down so much that it's too harsh! No now I pull the buds part, get rid of the stems, pack my flavored cone and its off to Wonderland!
