Step-by-Step Guide to Rolling the Perfect Preroll Cone
Prepare Your Herbs First things first, you’ll want to grind your herbs to ensure an even burn. A grinder will give you a consistent texture, but if you don’t have one, a little handiwork will do just fine.
Making the Filter Cut a strip from your filter paper. Fold one end of the strip into a “W” shape, then roll the rest around it tightly to create a cylinder. This will be the filter for your cone.
Shaping the Cone Take a single sheet of rolling paper with the adhesive strip facing up and toward you. Hold it in a concave shape between your fingers.
Filling It Up Distribute your ground herbs evenly along the crease, leaving room at the wider end for the filter.
Rolling the Cone Start at the filter end, rolling the paper around the filter and herbs. Once you’ve got the shape, lick the adhesive strip and seal the cone.
Packing the Cone Use your pen or another narrow object to pack the herbs down gently. This ensures an even burn.
Finishing Touches Twist the open end of the cone to close it up, and voilà! You’ve got yourself a perfect preroll cone.
Wrapping It Up
Making your own preroll cones and filters is not just about the destination; it’s about the journey. Each roll is an opportunity to refine your skills, and before you know it, you’ll be rolling with ease and confidence. Remember, the key to perfection is practice, patience, and a bit of personal flair. Happy rolling!

The best type of paper depends on personal preference. Some prefer thinner papers for a smoother smoke, while others might opt for thicker ones for durability. Experiment with different types to find your perfect match.
It’s not recommended to reuse filters as they can accumulate tar and other residues. For the best experience, use a new filter for each roll.
Aim for a balance. Too tight, and it’ll be hard to draw smoke through; too loose, and it might burn too quickly. Practice will help you find the right tightness.
You can use scissors to chop your herbs finely or even your fingers to break them down. However, a grinder provides the best consistency for an even burn.
Yes, it’s legal to make your own preroll cones and filters. However, the legality of what you choose to fill them with varies by location. Always check local laws regarding the possession and use of herbs.
