Ive never bathed by grinder in isopropyl in 6+ years and it still grinds like new every time I clean it with my pocket knife. But I did get a steel grinder to make sure I can scrape all I want without getting aluminum in my weed
Cooking doesn’t usually go much higher than 200 - 250C (400 - 500F). Cigarettes (and I assume joints similarly) reach 900C (1650F) when puffing. I’m not sure at which point aluminum produces fumes, but I dont think the cooking argument holds up.

You’re probably still getting some steel in the weed. It is very unlikely the knife and the grinder share the exact hardness.
But I’d rather have steel than aluminum in my weed. Aluminum oxide fumes are carcinogenic when inhaled, so I’d rather avoid it.
I realize worrying about cancer when talking about smoking is ironic, but still.
Doesn’t aluminum need to be heated to several thousand degrees to put off carcinogenic fumes? Otherwise cooking on aluminum foil would be deadly…
