Sand in my hob
Anyone have any idea how to get it out? It is making an obnoxious grinding noise now, I've tried washing it and taking it apart, maybe I didn't clean it enough?

Yes try a more thorough clean. If its grinding you will have particles in the impeller, this is potentially very harmful to your hob.
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Hold the filter upside down disassembled and spray it out with a garden hose or shower sprayer. The higher the water pressure the better as it will help blast out any risidual particles.
