Getting "gunk" out of my grinder to use

So here it is...

I was wondering what the best way to get this sticky, sweet smelling trichome leftover out of it? Isopropanol? Boil in water and reduce to hash?
I used up the last of my Iso today making chemicals that go boom, but if it is a good technique I'll do it and document it here for the archives.

Kinda wished I uploaded the image to here now. Ah well.

    I use something sharp to scrape at it. This doesn't usually happen to me unless I grind a very large amount of weed in one sitting.

    Fill both sides of the grinder to surface tension with high proof alcohol, let sit, reduce alcohol, sprinkle on new bowl.

    :rolleyes:

    I'll be getting some Isopropanol asap then.
    Also just made some fucking lovely cannabutter. I would write a guide but it's everywhere on the net. Gonna put it in a sandwich before i fly to mainland Europe next week. Could be either great soaring at 30,000ft or fucked up when i get to customs and start shitting it like a little dog.

    We shall see!

    I'm not terribly experienced with things staying in my grinder (there is nothing but skank weed around here, and my seeds haven't gotten here yet), but chemical 420 should work. It's made for getting resin and such out, and most reputable head shops carry it.

    I advice you get a metal grinder, after you try cleaning this one. Get the kind that unscrews and has a screen in it.

    If that grinder of yours is acrylic, using Iso alcohol to clean it will shatter your grinder.

    Ah it is acrylic. Gash.

    I do have a metal one with a screen but it's so small. Time to invest in a bigger one methinks.
