    Flower Mill Plates: Differences & What’s Best For You – Tested!

    The Flower Mill is my favorite “grinder” by far, and the interchangeable plates are a big reason for that. The Flower Mill comes with mill plate #3 by default, with each additional plate costing extra.

    So, here is a comparison of the end result with each different sized mill plate.

    Plate #1 – Extra Fine:

    I like to use the finer plates for dry herb vapes, particularly ball vapes like my Ruby Twist. Some styles of vapes might perform better with a coarse grind, though. I don’t usually use plate #1, but for vaping, I’d prefer it to the standard #3 plate.

    Plate #2 – Fine:

    This one is my favorite for my ball vape, personally. As a result, this one is almost always my daily driver when vaping is my main method of consumption.

    Plate #3 – Medium (Default):

    This one comes with the Flower Mill by default. It’s a nice, standard size that I’d say does best in a regular bowl. While the other plates may not be necessary, I will say that this one is almost never in my Flower Mill.

    Plate #4 – Coarse:

    Any time I’m not vaping, this is the one that’s in my Mill. I really enjoy this size for most forms of regular combustion; Bowls, pipes & joints.

    Plate #5 – Extra Coarse:

    The most coarse option available. I don’t usually use this one, but if I happen to be rolling a big blunt, this is the one I’m choosing. The extra coarseness really adds to the blunt experience in particular, in my opinion. Otherwise, this one is just a bit too coarse for my usual habits.

    Overall, I love having the ability to customize my experience every time. I enjoy having all 5 for any circumstance, but I’d say as long as you have #2-#4, you’ll be pretty set.

  • The Flower Mill – A Great Grinder Alternative!

    The Flower Mill – A Great Grinder Alternative!

    I’ve had the same grinder for about 10 years now. After updating all of my other smoking accessories, I decided it was time to upgrade my grinder game. After seeing a couple recommendations for the Flower Mill, I decided to pull the trigger. I’m so glad I did!

    This video of mine sums it up here, and shows how quickly it grinds.

    But essentially, this is the best “grinder” I’ve ever bought. I put that in quotes because it’s not truly a grinder, it has no teeth! Instead, it uses a rotating plate and stationary screen to mill your herb, keeping it fluffy and perfectly uniform.

    A regular grinder’s teeth just tear up the flower and damage it’s trichomes, while getting clogged up with sticky kief. With the Flower Mill, there are no clogs, and your flower stays potent and flavorful.

    One of the best parts is that you can swap out the milling screen for a total of 5 different grind sizes. The default is 3, here are a few examples of the others;

    Overall, I’ve been very happy with how the herb comes out in this. It stays so fluffy and airy that you can actually feel the difference in the smoke. With the different size screens, I can have the perfect grind for different vape setups, or just a typical blunt, whatever the occasion calls for.

    I couldn’t see myself going back to a regular grinder!
