It would be better not to grind the weed as such, but it would help the kief extraction process be more comfortable with this homemade kief box. So, after your weed is ground, spread it on the silkscreen surface. You can use a credit card to handle the ground weed. Now that your cannabis is ground and placed, you can start to move it and work it to get the kief out of it. You can use a credit card or something similar to move the weed around the silkscreen. Then, hit the screen on the sides with one of your hands.
Doing this will make the kief pass through the screen and fall on the glass surface of your shadow box. Repeat the process for about 10 minutes, and once you finish, you should have the kief spread on the glass surface of your kief box.
After you finish working your weed on the silkscreen, take off the remains of ground weed of it. You can save that weed for later as it still has THC in it. Then, remove the silkscreen of the frame, and you should be able to see the kief that felt out your cannabis flowers placed on the glass surface. You should have a fair amount of kief in your hands. In case you are not sure of what to do with this copious amount of kief, we have some suggestions for you to make the most out of it.
You can make a delicious kief coffee recipe, roll a kief joint , or even press it. Whatever it is you use kief for, we are sure a kief box will make things easier for you.

Use a spatula provided to take out the Kief, or simply a paintbrush or razor will also do the job.
The second thing that you need to keep in mind is the heat. The oil from the Kief oozes out at high temperatures, so if you're working in a packed, heated room, try to first freeze or refrigerate the grinder for a few minutes before trying to remove the substance.
Pollen Boxes are another simple and efficient way to move forward with Kief Collection. They are not as easy as just twisting a herb grinder and finding the goodness in a chamber, but it is still a simple method if you're looking for an alternative. Pollen Boxes also work in a similar manner to the grinder method. You put all your fresh buds on top and then shake the box. This allows the trichomes and the beautiful Kief to sift through the filter, and into the bottom tray.
This is perfect for someone who doesn't want to shred their buds but still wants to catch the Kief. Once you're done shaking the Kief Catcher Boxes, simply open and enjoy the goodness, filtered and ready to be smoked. The best part about pollen boxes is that they keep your Kief nicely contained, and any clumsiness won't lead to the loss of product. It's not a very ideal method for large batches, but if you're just doing it for yourself, it might work well.
Silk Screen is another way to collect Kief and is ideal for a medium-sized batch. You can easily procure it from the local art shop or head-shop and is pretty similar to the ones the t-shirt printing press uses.
For an ideal screening process, go for the screens between 80 and LPI lines per inch. Remember to keep a container below the screen to catch your potent substance. Simply run your cannabis on the top of your screen gently or use an old gift card, credit card, etc. This will separate the Kief without much effort, but just remember to be very light-handed as the screen can break the stem.
A very ancient way to collect Kief, Hashish Drum is perfect for stoners who like to get creative and have a little spare time in hand. To create a Hashish Drum, you would need a silkscreen and a drum basin or plastic bucket - a cheaper alternative. Simply stretch the screen over the entire drum basin and cover it with your favourite herbs. Next, a tarp is placed over it with a rubber band or rope, keeping the plant material between the screen and trap. This is then beaten with sticks, making the kief fall through the silkscreen.
Perfect for the large batches! We know what is Kief and how to collect it, but what to do once you have collected it? You can easily educate your homies on what is Kief and the collection methods are, but what if someone asks you how to smoke these beautiful, potent substances? Don't literally get your crowns out, ladies and gentlemen but crowning a bowl could highly enhance and intensify your high.
Simply get your potent Kief and sprinkle on top of your bowl. A generous dusting on your bowl and you could be opening up new realms of dimensions and potency not known before. But remember to corner your hits to get the most out of a crowned bowl that is done by burning a quadrant of the bowl at a time.
When it comes to stoners, there is absolutely no lack of creativity. Kief might just feel like a powdery substance but can greatly enhance your rolling and toking experience with nothing but a generous sprinkle.
Once you pepper your shredded herbs with Kief, the potency of both the flowers and trichomes blend well together to give you an out-of-the-world experience quite literally, no shit!
If you're not very keen on messing with the insides of your joint, you can always make a Twax Joint. Don't worry, I am going to explain. For those who want the ultimate level of experience, you can coat a generous amount of Kief on the outside. To do so, you can either lick the outside or simply coat it with wax, and then sprinkle or roll it in a generous amount of Kief.
And there you have it, a "twaxed joint". Let's face it, if there is anything better than a twaxed joint and a crowned bowl, it is the world of Moonrocks. The potency here blows through the roof, and you wake up the next day wondering why you can't feel your fingers. Moon Rocks are basically high-quality nugs coated in oil and then rolled in Kief. If you're keen on knowing more about MoonRocks, I have written a guide on it. Check it out below!
But traditionally, those looking to collect kief on a larger scale have had only a couple of options to turn to: kief boxes and kief tumblers. A kief box is typically comprised of a wood frame with some type of mesh stretched across it. Flower is placed on top and the box is shaken side to side to rub the trichomes off of the flower. First, they are labor intensive requiring you to provide the force necessary to get the job done.
Second, kief boxes often allow more than just the trichomes to pass through the screen. If the mesh is too large, other parts of the flower will make it through the screen. Conversely, using a kief box with mesh that is smaller openings will require more work to sift the kief.
Kief tumblers come in many different shapes and sizes, but all use the same basic principle: flower is placed in a drum with a fine mesh lining the outside, and the drum is repeatedly spun around to separate the kief from the flower.
Unfortunately, many kief tumblers are made of cheap materials which greatly reduce their effectiveness and durability. For example, nylon is a common choice for the material to be used for the mesh screen. Nylon stretches and tears relatively easily meaning that little pieces of it will end up in your kief, so it will need to be fixed or replaced all too quickly.
Another problem with cheap tumblers is that they often use prefabricated plastic bins to house the tumbler. This makes kief collection a real pain as they have nooks and crannies where it is hard to reach the kief.
