breaking down the branch?

Migrated topic.
why not?

cut it into cubes by hand ... (1 cm by 1 cm)

than pulverize in the grinder..

if your worried about yeild (which i suppose we all should be) why not do more acid boils (4 or 5 boils in the case of a/b) or a longer soak for a stb... (or even a vinegar pre soak for stb)
 
try breaking it down by hand first, twist, break, rip etc

then cut into small squares, try for less than 1 x 1 cm, though some peices are just unruly

then grind in small batches, cant really give a number hear as per gram but keep it small. my grinder has a fill to here for spice line (though i think they mean a different spice haha... ) and i never fill it that much

grind for brief periods at a time as not to burn out the grinder.

if it isnt all powder it should be ok, decent yeilds have been reported using shredded bark.. search shredded bark

try an acid soak before a stb or more and longer boils if your doing an a/b

hope this helps, good luck!

The dude
