ABSTRACT:
A gin for use with leafy herbs separates the leaves from the stems, seeds, and other debris. A rotary bristle brush is rotatably mounted in the lower end of a hopper to transfer the leaves from the hopper into a collection compartment. The collection compartment is attached to the lower end of the hopper and supports a concave grate meshing with the brush. On rotation of the brush, the leaves are forced through the grate and the stems, seeds, and debris are retainingly enmeshed within the brush bristles.
