how to scrape a grinder?

well my grinder is getting really full of kief on the side walls and crevices my question is how do i get it off and into a bowl?

if i use my finger i'll get it all out but i cant get it off my finger. i've tried mini spoons and everything i just cant figure this out

anyone got any good ideas

I would use a toothpick too get it too all fall too the bottom than turn it upside down on a peice of paper and bang on the top a few times.

On my old metal grinder, i used the metal pick from my swiss army knife.

ALL STONERS:

Go to an auto parts store, and ask for a cheap "pick set" you will be thanking me later.

I found this on grass city - "you might want to try popping that thing in to the freezer for 10-15 minutes, then, if it's got a kief catcher, just bang the whole kit on a table or something solid a few times. If It doesn't have a kief catcher than you should bang each half on a piece of paper. When I do this with my spacecase (with kief catcher) and my grinder is dirty enough, I can usually get a pretty nice amount of kief."

Also this - "pour some hot water from the kettel into a large mug drop your grinder in there and stir it, trust me i do it every month or so. "

And this - "Clean it using a swiss army knife, a business card and a peice of paper and get all the little bits and keif and crystals and pollen out then smoke it... You'll get fucked what i do"

gonna sound weird but what i use for my wicca box and grinder is u use like a shave brush one of those brushes that comes with a beard trimming kit and just do it over a mirror then scrape it all up with a credit crad and enjoy

i use 99 percent alcohol and let it evaporate and smoke the hash

there isn't that much of it. i do have a kief catcher but some of the kief gets stuck in the middle and top chamber.yeah i guess ill have to get in there with a toothpick or something

Have you tried just getting a small sized piece of weed and just rubbing it against the walls of the grinder? I had a really dense nug (like a rock) so it didn't get smushed and it got a great majority of the kief off the grinder. When I was done I still hand to grind it up because it was so dense but no kief was lost this way. You could also just drop the nug in a bowl after you get the kief on it.
Also the screen can become congested with kief so I like to rub one of those beard brushes someone mentioned earlier as the tiny bristles help clear out the holes in the screen so your kief drops down at a better rate.

I also use the brush that was included with my beard trimmer it has a short stiff side for caked on stuff and long soft bristles for those cracks and crevices. i swear by it and it really works great without making a big mess. i suggest doing this sober so you dont drop your grinder and lose all that good shiz

or use a piece of card board, like rip a piece off of a pack of gum or cigarettes
