Basically, since the screen is so close to the grinding spikes the holes for the kief to fall through get retardedly clogged up with kief. I'm looking for a way to push it through the screen easier... I've just been hitting it with a thumbtack, loosening the kief and banging it on my tray. So am I shit out of luck? Do I have to buy the 4-piece grinder, or is there an easy way of dealing with a grinder that has the kief screen sealed against the grinder compartment?
Two things:
Dull knife for the edges (a lot builds up on the inside of grinder walls, any lining, etc, sometimes even on the splines or grooves)
A coin. I put a cleaned nickle coin ontop of the compartment where the kief falls in my ginder. Mine is 5 compartments so I don't really have to worry about 'unpure' kief being pushed through, but if this isn't a huge concern, i'd do that. The kief will generally be a shade darker, toward green. Every now and then, I rattled the grinder around and the coin does all the work.
