By Robert Adams


It is not often that you will find articles advising you to clean grinders, and that could be because it is not something that should be done regularly unless it is necessary. Grinders are essential to those who prefer home-made spices to ready-made available in the supermarkets and grocery stores. Below are ways on how to ensure cleanliness on tobacco and herb grinder.

Herbs are great and are loved by everyone except those who suffer heart problems and ulcers when they eat spicy foods. They make food smell and taste so good. Additionally, they are life savers when it comes to curbing some serious diseases like sugar levels, heart diseases, and even cancer. They include cinnamon, pepper, cumin, cardamom just to name a few.

A grinder must be cleaned the first time it is bought to get rid of any residuals from the manufacturer. This is because you want uncontaminated ground herbs on its first use. After the first clean, you should only clean it again when you notice its efficiency has dropped. If your grinders screen is blocked, read on for tips on how to clean it.

Before moving on to the methods of cleaning, you should first familiarize yourself with the taboos of cleaning the chopper. The first one is you should avoid using soap to clean them. Soap will not wash off completely, and that may cause contamination on your spices as you grind them. You must also never use any sharp objects to scrap off the dirt as it leaves dents that can collect dirt and hide them making it difficult for through cleaning.

Cleaning brush is the best item to use while cleaning your chopper. Dismantle your grinder and remove the residuals on the screen. This is done through shaking it off. If this does not seem to work, then submerge it into alcohol after which warm water should be used to rinse off the alcohol. It is important to note that fluffy items like serviettes and tissue papers should not be used to dry the grinder since they tend to stick once wet and this may not be effective. Instead, dry cloth or air drying acts best.

The use of boiling water is also an effective method. It involves pouring hot water into a container large enough to fit the herb grinder. After fully immersing them, use a spoon to stir them occasionally in hot water since you cannot use bare hands. Repeat process until the water cools down or after most of the dirt has come off. Next, immerse them in warm water and use a cleaning brush to wash off the remaining dirt gently.

Also, you can opt to use the household cleaner. In a big container, pour in half of the cleaning solution followed by half water. Immerse the grinder after dismantling and let them stay overnight. On the next day, they should be sparkling clean. Rinse them off in some warm water and set aside to dry.

With the above tips at hand, cleaning your chopper will no longer be a nightmare. They are also very easy to follow and the equipment involved can be found in most homes. The methods will ensure your chopper remains clean and in condition.
