I recently bought the Next Gen Standard 2.5" mill. I followed the instruction to let the weight of the top piece do most of the work.
However, because the milling chamber contained flower pieces of varying size, the milling top didn't rest evenly on the material, and wobbled uncontrollably as I turned it. I learned to hold the top piece level and in contact with only the biggest piece of flower, then twist back and forth in short, quick strokes. As the remaining volume of material goes down, the top piece contacts more and more of the flower, and suddenly it goes (gently) aground on the mill plate.
The result is a very fluffy "grind," with 2 problems:
1) Some stems get through the milling holes, which are larger than I expected (it's not replaceable on this model).
2) The "grind" is a bit irregular, and not quite fine enough.
I found that I could run the milled flower back through the mill again, once or even twice, and pick out the stems I see along the way, the result is finer, more consistent, and still very fluffy. This works great for me.
PLEASE make this in pink I will do anything I NEED a pink pollen catcher! Pls pls plssss make pink
Well this was my first flower mill I got it fits perfectly in hand and the weight of it is on the heavy side coming from the og grinders this has been one of my best experiences so fluffy and uniform every time easy to clean and if you get the 2.5 you can get a beautiful grip to give it some style I love it so much I bought the 2.5 s.s. premium with all the plates so I can have the best experiences ever I'm very glad I took the dive and now flower mill is my daily grinder
These plates are a games changer for whatever you want if you vape there's a plate for that if you smoke bowls there's a plate for that if you smoke "J's" there's a plate for that and blunts too I got all 4 to have the full experience with my s.s. 2.5 premium you can easily swap out the milling plates in seconds a must have in your flower mill
