On the grind: Best weed grinders for bowls and blunts

Whether you’re rolling joints or packing bowls, a quality grinder can elevate your session from good to great, and help you make the most of your stash. A decent grinder has sharp teeth that slice and dice dry herb into a beautiful, fluffy mound.

Some even have mesh screens to sift out chunks and preserve the extra-potent pollen, AKA kief. And those with an integrated storage compartment will ensure that not a single gram is wasted. The dankness is in the details!

Here are our picks for the best weed grinders in 2022.
