    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    It's certainly overly warm direct from the device. It affects the flavour profile and is thought of in two ways: awful or tolerable. It's by no means good. Smokers do really appreciate it however, one I know prefers it direct to through water. But for typical vaporists the heat is probably too...

    Increasing temps VS high initial temp?

    Key variables: material, vaporizer, tolerance The material is always different with varying concentrations of a range of chemicals causing the desired effect by entering the bloodstream. It also varies in particle size/surface area and moisture content. The vaporizer is also always different...

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    There's no pass-thru charging, the heater draws more than USB can offer. I would say expect 1 chamber per battery, but I've got 6 chambers before so it varies. Depends on the technique and the level of ABV'd and the age of the battery. Having multiple batteries, an Xtar MC2 and a battery bank...

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    My Hoppers have arrived at HL! I really miss them as my EQ is nothing in comparison and I'm over it now. $15 postage and 10 business days from Australia is not so bad for the hopper rigmarole. They're being tested and repaired, so it'll be interesting to see what I get back and how it...

    Not sure about the wait. This guy has some good reviews of the SLX and the Lift SLX - Lift -

    No harm in addressing a materials concern when it is being directly requested, to be fair. I do see a few flaws in the logic though. Ceramic frying pans are also made of metal, and you similarly can't use metal utensils on them, as on SLX grinders, if you want to preserve their delicate coating...

    Yeah I normally do break up nugs and place them a bit more carefully. And I nearly did here too, because I knew that it would produce better pics if I did it. But I was trying to show the same bud and a true grind comparison to what I used before, which was sticky-icky for the MFFG demo. I...

    The SLX is about as coarse as I go for my combustion needs actually. It works perfectly, but it's ideal for vaping too. The grind is fluffy, little bits stick to little bits, but overall it's very consistent. The photo's I took don't do it justice, plus the herb samples are par-cured and...

    True, I'll amend it to 0.5. The only benefit to it is it's recycled cardboard. It's not sufficient though, SLX's can be scratched fresh out of the box which I think is unacceptable, one I got recently was and it was a bit disheartening for the owner. I just showed him mine which has a few battle...

    It seemed brilliant to me because it's oriented from my position and was quite indepth with vids, pics and macro shots comparing grinds. Hearing your insight is good and as valid to me, but to be fair it's not built from top shelf materials (can't even be cleaned with alcohol and has some...

    Thanks guys, I will give the SLX an upside downer tonight with the same material, but I'm going to be toking on some cheese so I'll look at some less chunky material through it too, which should end up finer. It is very much a shredded grind, and it's a medium chunky blend, but quite consistent...

    Turns out that was nonsense. The difference in effort is extreme, the MFFG is for sure annoying and somewhat painful to use, where as the SLX ate the nug like it was nothing! It took 3 goes to process the herb in the first shot through the MFFG, the SLX had twice the product and took all of...

    I have done a number of times, but not often as it just isn't convenient to generate the grind. The GH's screens are quite coarse too, so it's best through water as a few particles can be pulled through. But, it works awesomely despite that. I once filled my 3D printed GH feeder with MFFG pixie...

    I've used a 'sharp stone' handle crank grinder a couple of years ago, the first grinder I was introduced to actually, and it was really good quality and fairly old, probably from early 200X's. Had curved edge diamond teeth and 10 rows of them too. I would imagine the Black Leaf could be an OEM...

    Okay then, what's better? ;) Definitely a fair call, but IMO, despite it's obvious short falls of size (which really just limit the throughput capacity and the ergonomics of use, both substantially negatively to render my statement entirely whimsical) It's still great, and fuck mill grinders...

    The MFFG might be a fancy grater but it is also undoubtedly the best herb processing equipment available for vaping. Nothing else can achieve what that thing does, and people want that on a large scale. I think you could do it with high-tolerance machining and a dampened pin acting as a central...

    this as grip for the top piece (grinder section) If you really don't want to go with circle holes, I think a honeycomb pattern might be a good choice. I don't know about the teeth, though I think the trapezoid with opposing concave edges is a winner for the standard format. I would work from...

    My old grinder actually had a female lid In use the female lid is nicer, but it was more prone to wobbling (probably build quality/tolerance and magnet strength playing a big role there). But interesting observation, I prefer the larger area to place the nuggies, but prefer placing the wider...

    I fully recommend it, but it's of course not flawless. I'll attempt a review below, after my time with it there's a few things notable to point out with it. I have ground around an ounce a month, sometimes more sometimes less, all up I guess my SLX must have seen around a pound of plant so far...

    Yeah I'm annoyed the two I scooped recently for friends were requested to be charcoal, I like the green one and wanted to see it in person. But yeah, grinding with the SLX has been fantastic. Always consistent, always enjoyable and so much quality kief! Very happy with my purchase
