Got a regular, no pouches
thank you, it’s a pleasure to be here.
technically I’m in the more exclusive 6 plate club…but you know, I’ll still associate with the 3 plates, and even the single platers…
Same here! I already have pouches from my own order (with three plates), but the last one I got as a gift only came in bubble wrap. Not a big deal for only a single plate, but it’s nice if you have all 3 for when the other plates aren’t in use.Got a regular, no pouches
I see things like this all the time, new companies going over an above to make an impression, then the reality of economics and capitalism hit home as the accountants take stock and any cost savings to be made... are made!
Perhaps it is supply shortage in this case, it does happen too. But I don't think this negates the general observation that fancy additions like this cost money and if your product is good enough to get away with toxic landfill bubble bags instead of something your customers actually want to keep and use... well...
I don't mean to be harsh, just observant, pensive, thoughtful

Already have my color scheme decided on and an account.
Anyone else experience this?
Please don’t forget to post a picture of your grinder when it arrives what colour?Wow! I am stoked to say that just now, today, I have received confirmation that my large BCG is completed and being shipped now. Ordered on 20 May, completed 14 July. It is in the cold dark of Winter where I am so this is a beacon of light knowing that it is on it's way to me! Great stuff. I am so pleased to be getting one of Grinders for Life beautiful units!
Well, I haven't been as colourful and bold as most. Initially I liked the plain silver appearance for reminding me of something amazingly machined from 100 years ago, and I thought if it got any chipping that being silver it wouldn't show.Please don’t forget to post a picture of your grinder when it arrives what colour?
A very elegant and refined choice Classy and timeless! May it bring you a lifetime of enjoymentLarge BCG with medium plate,in Silver/Sliver with Sapphire base, so I still get some colour on the base!
Anyone ordered a BCG lately? I know during peak covid there were long delays (mine was roughly 9 weeks) but I wonder now if things are a bit chiller delivered to the US and they just haven't updated their site.
Got it, thx.No thats been their standard time, I believe since they started... covid or no covid.
umchiming in!
customer number one. literally. i got the first order in when they first dropped. its an onyx and i slowly got all three plates and still prefer the medium plate. it has NEVER been cleaned just a dry brush if i have really kiefy (spelling) flower and its caked on the catch but that isn't an inconvenience compared to how much time and frustration into opening the grinder. did grinders for life BCG become @stonaGrinders ? anywho need to get the large version eventually but haven't ever regretted this purchase one bit i still have a scs 2 piece i keep in the attic in case my bcg get lost or stolen ? haha
That should totally be your custom title.customer number one.
I’m finally ready for a new grinder. The roughly 10 year old sharpstone isn’t really sharp at all anymore.
Now I’m asking myself constantly if I should go for the larger version. I like the idea of more storage room since the magnet in the middle is obviously reducing the chamber size but I fear the bigger version is somehow clumsy.
Is there anybody owning both versions and is still preferring the small BCG and why? Anybody bought the larger BCG and wished they went for the smaller one instead?
