Amsterdam Grinder (2-piece)

Amsterdam grinder 2-piece - 40 mm

This Amsterdam grinder is a metal 2-piece grinder with a 40 mm diameter, a common size that fits most stash tins and storage boxes. The two halves are held together with a magnetic closure, so you can twist the grinder shut firmly without relying on a loose screw thread that could work its way open. Magnetic closures like this have become the standard on compact metal grinders, since they hold up to wear better than a threaded screw system.

Sharp metal teeth on the inside give a fine, even grind. Because this is a 2-piece model, the ground herbs drop straight into the bottom section, without a separate collection chamber or sieve like on a 4-piece grinder. That keeps the Amsterdam grinder simple to use and easy to keep clean.

How to use

Spread the herbs over the teeth in the top section, twist the two halves firmly against each other a few times, and let the magnetic closure click the grinder shut again. Grind a bit longer for a finer result, or stop sooner for coarser pieces. Thanks to its compact 40 mm diameter, the grinder fits easily into a pocket or bag.

Care

Clean the teeth regularly after use with a small brush, so no sticky residue builds up that could hinder the closure over time. Store the grinder dry to prevent the metal from rusting. With normal use and proper care, a metal grinder like this one lasts for years.

Dutch-Smart also stocks grinders with more compartments and other sizes in the same category, for anyone who prefers a built-in sieve or collection chamber.
