Mighty & Crafty - Coarse Screen Set

Coarse Replacement Screens for Mighty and Crafty Vaporizers

The Mighty Crafty coarse screen set is a pack of 6 original Storz & Bickel replacement screens designed to sit at the bottom of the filling chamber on your Mighty or Crafty vaporizer. These coarse mesh screens keep ground herb from falling into the heating element while allowing hot air to pass through evenly — which is how you get smooth, flavourful draws instead of scorched, uneven hits. A small part with a big job, and one that wears out faster than most people realise. If you're looking to buy replacement screens for your Storz & Bickel device, this set covers the Mighty, Mighty+, Crafty, and Crafty+.

Why Replacing Your Vaporizer Screens Matters

A clogged or warped coarse screen is the single most common cause of poor vapour quality in Mighty and Crafty vaporizers. Here's what we see constantly behind the counter: someone comes in saying their Mighty "doesn't hit like it used to." Nine times out of ten, it's not the battery, not the heating element, not the firmware. It's a clogged screen. Resin, plant matter, and fine particulate build up in the mesh over weeks of use. Once airflow drops, your herb heats unevenly — some spots combust while others barely warm through. You end up with harsh vapour, wasted material, and that burnt popcorn taste nobody asked for.

Cleaning helps, and you should be doing it regularly with isopropyl alcohol. But coarse screens have a finite lifespan. The mesh warps slightly with repeated heating and cooling cycles, and once it does, it no longer sits flush in the chamber. That tiny gap means herb gets past the screen and into places it shouldn't be. At that point, cleaning won't fix the geometry — you need a fresh screen.

With 6 screens in this Mighty Crafty coarse screen set, you're looking at roughly 6 to 12 months of replacements depending on how heavily you use your vaporizer. That's a lot of sessions protected by a single purchase. We'd call that the cheapest performance upgrade you can make to a Storz & Bickel device.

Mighty and Crafty Screen Specifications

This Mighty Crafty coarse screen set includes 6 original Storz & Bickel screens stamped to the exact filling chamber diameter. According to data published by the European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA), convection vaporizers like the Mighty and Crafty produce significantly fewer harmful byproducts than combustion methods — but only when airflow components like screens are properly maintained. Here are the full specs:

Coarse vs Fine Screens — Which One Goes Where

Coarse screens line the bottom of the filling chamber and hold herb in place while allowing maximum airflow upward through the material. Storz & Bickel uses two screen types in the Mighty and Crafty: coarse and fine. This set contains the coarse screens. The wider mesh openings on a coarse screen mean less airflow resistance, which is why the draw on these vaporizers feels so easy compared to conduction units.

The fine screens sit in the cooling unit (the top part that clips onto the filling chamber). Those catch smaller particles before they reach your mouth. Both screen types need replacing, but the coarse ones tend to degrade faster because they're in direct contact with your herb and the heat source. If you're only going to order one replacement part today, make it the coarse screen.

How to Replace the Coarse Screen on Your Mighty or Crafty

Replacing a coarse screen takes under two minutes and requires no tools beyond what Storz & Bickel includes with your vaporizer. Follow these steps:

1. Turn off your vaporizer and let it cool completely. The filling chamber retains heat for a few minutes after shutdown — patience here saves burnt fingers.
2. Remove the cooling unit by pressing the latch and lifting it off the filling chamber.
3. Empty any remaining herb from the chamber. A small brush (included with your Mighty or Crafty) works well for this. Tap the unit upside down to dislodge stubborn bits.
4. Use the orange pick tool (also included with your vaporizer) to gently pry out the old coarse screen from the bottom of the filling chamber. It should pop out without much force — if it's stuck, a quick soak in isopropyl alcohol loosens the resin.
5. Drop a fresh coarse screen into the bottom of the chamber. Press it down gently with your finger or the flat end of the pick tool until it sits flush. You'll feel it click into the recessed lip.
6. Reassemble the cooling unit, load your herb (Storz & Bickel recommends 0.15g–0.2g per dosing capsule, or a loose fill for the full chamber), and you're good to go.

Getting the Most From Your Storz and Bickel Vaporizer Screens

Regular cleaning between replacements extends each screen's usable life by several weeks. Brush out the chamber after every session while it's still slightly warm — resin is softer at temperature and comes off easier. Once a week (or every 8–10 sessions), remove the screen and soak it in isopropyl alcohol for 10 minutes. Let it dry fully before reinserting.

From Our Counter: A regular customer of ours was convinced his Mighty+ was broken — weak vapour, poor flavour, visible residue in the cooling unit. We handed him a fresh coarse screen from this exact set, he swapped it in the shop, and his first draw was night and day. He'd been using the same screen for five months. Now he keeps a Mighty Crafty coarse screen set in his drawer at all times and swaps every four weeks like clockwork. Cheapest fix we've ever recommended.

One honest limitation: coarse screens are not a fix for poor grind consistency. If your herb is ground too fine, particles will pass through the coarse mesh regardless of how new the screen is. A medium grind — think coarse sea salt, not powder — works best with these screens. Too fine and you'll clog the cooling unit faster. Too chunky and you won't get even extraction. The grind matters as much as the screen.

Compared to third-party replacement screens you'll find elsewhere, these are the original Storz & Bickel parts. They're stamped to the exact diameter of the filling chamber, so they sit flush without bowing or rattling. We've seen aftermarket screens that are a fraction of a millimetre off — enough to let herb slip past the edges. For a part this cheap, there's no reason to gamble on a knockoff. Get the originals and know they'll fit first time.
