The CAPU grinder is a threadless weed grinder with interchangeable teeth and brilliant color combinations.

It’s designed and produced in Germany, where engineering is taken very seriously.

The CAPU grinder is 2.7″ wide and 2.5″ tall. (70mm x 64mm). It’s a 4-piece grinder with a kief screen. The screen is nonremovable, and the grinder does not reassemble securely as a 3-piece unit.

It’s 155 € (about $180) but seems to go on sale frequently.

Design & Colors

The first thing that stands out about the CAPU grinder is its color options. This grinder is available in several bold and beautiful color combinations. I chose the Watermelon option, with pine green on the outside and pink on the inside.

The turquoise and titanium versions will be on my wish list if this grinder passes any of my reach tests.

Its larger size feels great with the 12-sided dodecagon design. It’s easy to hold and easy to turn. It’s nearly as tall as it is wide.

Build Quality

The CAPU grinder has many parts, but its simple design keeps everything in a tight, clean unit. It’s a large grinder that uses 42 neodymium magnets to hold it together.

Its surface anodization looks and feels great. I’ll be watching closely as I put the CAPU grinder through rigorous testing.

The removable, interchangeable teeth design makes the grinder easier to clean, but I worry that some of these magnets may fail if not properly maintained.

This thing has a LOT of magnets, and that worries me. Magnets are usually held in with glue, and lost magnets are the #1 failure point in weed grinders. I’ve watched grinder companies struggle with magnet adhesive for their first 18 months of existence – it’s a very real problem. The CAPU has over 40 different magnets, while most weed grinders have 2.

Grind Consistency & Options

This is where push comes to shove. The CAPU looks amazing, but can it grind weed?

CAPU Fine Grind plate has an abundance of teeth, which makes loading nugs more work than most grinders. It’s helpful to break the nug up into several smaller pieces and push them down into the teeth.

Turning and grinding isn’t overly difficult with my current selection of buds, but they’re old and dry. The Fine teeth may struggle with moist sticky nugs.

The Fine Grind isn’t very fine, but it’s extremely consistent.

I don’t know that I’ve seen another weed grinder put out this type of grind consistency. Is this the result of all the extra teeth?
