About

Grinders A good grinder does one job well: it breaks dry material down to an even, consistent texture without tearing, clumping or leaving half of it stuck in the teeth. The TAG 3" Four Chamber Grinder is built for exactly that, in heavy-duty machined metal that feels solid in the hand and keeps turning smoothly after years of daily use. How a Four-Chamber Grinder Works A four-chamber (four-piece) grinder stacks three jobs into one tool: Lid and grinding chamber: interlocking teeth cut the material as you twist the lid. Collection chamber: ground material falls through holes in the grinding plate and collects here, ready to use. Screen and bottom chamber: a fine mesh screen lets the finest particles sift through into a separate chamber at the bottom. Our screen is 120 micron , fine enough to sift cleanly without clogging after a few uses. The 3" diameter gives more grinding surface than a standard 2" or 2.5" grinder, so larger amounts take fewer turns. What Makes a Grinder Last Machined metal, not cast or plastic: sharp teeth that stay sharp and threads that don't strip. Magnetic lid: keeps the top seated while you grind, so nothing spills. Replaceable O-ring: a plastic O-ring between the lid and body cuts metal-on-metal friction and keeps the twist smooth. When it wears, swap in a replacement TAG grinder O-ring (75MM x 1.50MM) instead of replacing the grinder. Keeping It Clean Tap the grinder on a hard surface to loosen material from the teeth, and use a stainless steel scraper tool to clear the screen and the bottom chamber. For a deep clean, take the grinder apart, remove the O-ring, soak the metal pieces in isopropyl alcohol, scrub with a soft brush, rinse and let every piece dry completely before reassembling. Never soak the O-ring in alcohol. Grinder FAQ What does 120 micron mean? It's the size of the openings in the screen: 120 microns is about 0.12mm. Smaller numbers sift finer and slower; 120 is a common middle ground. Is a bigger grinder better? A 3" grind
