Vaporizing recommendations?

The arizer's temperature display is not really accurate so that probably isn't the temperature you're really vaping at, considering that is 500f, and you would be smoking if it were the true temperature.

What you should do is lower the temperature to around 210c, inhale VERY SLOW for 10 seconds or longer until your lungs are full, and that should give you better results.

Thanks for the heads up I will try that, and also check it with a pyrometer

Peace

truthmans being very polite that subliminator is shit. It would be crap for anyone that enjoys connoisseur vaping. Vaporising is not about producing big thick clouds and blowing smoke out like some idiot gangster rapper. Its about absorbing what you take in theirs no bad shit in it like smoke. The body doesnt really want to reject anything thats why its so effective much much better than smoking.

For a connoisseur vape experience you need to use tiny amounts and only fill the the bag a tiny amount. Thats if you use a bag type system. and you also want an accurate temperature display so you can dial in your needs. those bong type vapes like the cloud are great for weekend binge smokers who want to look cool on crappy you tube vids trying to get girls by blowing vapour in their faces lol. However for a true vape experience you need to get your wallets out and spend big. The volcano is my main vape i like the DBV but its nowhere near as effective as the volcano.
HAHAHAHAHA. Never even tried it and talking out his ass. Too funny. Go back to FC dude. At least have the pride to try something before you form your opinion. Least we can say its unbiased then.

Have yet to hear anyone ,that has tried it, complain and we have hit a lotta peeps. Peace GS

I ate some of my ABV last night, it's good I love bitter tastes, I have to say it was nasty nbut I have tasted some foods that would make me gag.

anyhow after an hour I realized I was coming on to the ABV, and it was mellow the whole night, it was actually kinda nice. I will be making some oil from it in the near future.

Hey Sativa Dragon, I've tried making oil with mine (BHO and QWISO) and I won't repeat it. The yields were really low and the quality was terrible. The QWISO was black and smelled strongly of vape and the BHO was brown and smelled strongly of vape. I remember almost puking in the driveway when the butane hit the ABV and released that stench into the air lol.

Anyways, I gotta pat you on the back, you've got a waaaay stronger stomach than I do I can't imagine eating raw ABV or even an un-rinsed ABV product. I do agree though the high is very nice and mellow.

Hey man I am known for my strong stomach, when I said oil I should have said cooking oil.

I used to have to take painkillers and sometimes there was nothing to wash them down with so I got used to chewing and swallowing, the nastiest I ever ate was green tea extract, I removed it from the capsule and dumped it in my mouth and immediately regretted it, however I soldiered through it and survived, richer in anti oxidants hee hee...

I am gonna eat twice as much tonight see what happens.

Peace

A connoisseur isn't going to use a bag vape - I'd recommend a nice log-style vape, tiny loads (I generally hit about 0.05 gram - and I get about 8 hits off that), and nothing but glass between the heat and you.
For new herb strains, I use the glass stem with my E-Nano, so that I can taste it. For daily hitting, I use a bubbler...
Sipping the vapor seems to get me medicated way faster than trying for huge clouds...

I've always wanted to give a log style vape a try, but they seem rather elusive around my parts. How many of those tiny vape-packs do you find yourself doing to reach contentment just out of curiosity? Can you load more in at once to avoid reloading or am I totally missing the point of a log vape? When you say you use a bubbler for daily hitting does that mean you use an adapter to filter the Nano through a bubbler or you have another vaporizer for your daily driver? Sorry for all the questions, I'm always looking to add to my collection :)

I've only owned a few vapes but I think that the first bag through a clean unit on a Volcano is much closer to a connoisseur experience than a lot of other mass-market vaporizers. The whip vapes (DBV, SSV, etc) only taste good with clean glass AND a clean piece of tubing. After a few sessions the predominant flavor is that tube residue. That being said I bet the taste from a short glass air path on a log vape is a serious step up from the volcano.

Sipping vapor never seems to get me very medicated. That's how the Omicron works and I find myself "sipping" until I'm blue in the face in pursuit of a large cloud. If I can get one or two good clouds that will make me cough a little on the way out, I'm set.

.
I can be completely wasted on one or two large hits, if I have the temp turned up to 7 (about 420F), with massive vapor clouds. I can usually get about 4 of those hits off a half of a tenth (0.05), at that temp. I prefer to start a bit lower, about 360F, and work my way up.
I can put up to maybe 0.2 gr in a stem/Gong (glass on glass connector), but by drawing slowly, I can get the same effect from less.
I use a bubbler/bong, which means I have a GonG which I use/load, and I bring the log vape to the herb. This works really well for me. I can also do a direct hit using a glass stem.

Log vapes are well known for providing really nice, large cloudy hits, with a lot less herb usage.

Hope that helps.

To achieve proper vapour you need a device that has and accurate temperature display like the volcano or the aromed vaporiser. The reason why these devices are so expensive is because allot of work has gone into making the temperature range as accurate as it can be. I recommend you save up for a device that has a digital temperature display like the volcano digi. All the best.


i just got the da vinci (a portable, with digital temp display and 1 degree F adjustments). love the variable temp control

nice vape hits !!! :woohoo:


and for the OP, :tiphat: my vapes and the order i rank them:

1. da vinci
2. iolite
3. mflb

i have a VZ ego vape pen in route, but it only does oils and tinctures.



MY VAPE WANTS:

1. VRIPTECH HEAT WAND
2. VOLCANO

My EQ is still my go to daily driver. Just got a new bubbler to use with it.

I just upped my MFLB game with the Power Adapter. This thing is awesome. Adjustable temps and no more battery charging. It hits like a brand new battery with every hit. I 100% recommend one to anyone with a MFLB


i've consider that mod. definitely looks worth it. i hate the batteries. and i hate that the first it can never be achieved again.

nice purchase :good:

I've had a Ploom Pax for about six months now and I'm pretty impressed with it. Solid construction, quick charge and easy to clean. Totally portable and discreet. I even vape oil, budder and dry sieve keif with no problems.

i almost bought one of those. they still intrigue me. thanks for the info :tiphat:

I just picked up a Vapolution 2.0 after some reading over on FC. With the AWIB "All In Wonder Bowl" it's an all glass path vape for $100 US. It's about what you'd expect in looks, plastic housing and light weight. Just an on/off and a rheostat to adjust the heat. Strangely, in the instructions they not grinding the herb but tearing and rolling "pellets" so they don't fall out. Not too tricky to learn, tiny paperless joints, inserted into the end.
Nice clean hits, rolling from 10:00 to 12:30-1:00 on the rheostat, goes from very mild flavor and lots of hits to 2 hits and that terpy-piney taste that coats your mouth. For the $100, it comes with a single and a buddy bowl, silicon tubing, car adapter and home adapter. AWIB is extra but FC has a deal and VapeWorld will do the same, so definitely get the AWIB, it's what makes this so good at this price.

Those look killer for the price. But I hate carbs, wonder if there is an option without one.

Some people on FC feel the same way, I *think* that one is in the works but don't shoot me if it isn't. The hole does fall into a good place so it's not like you have to think about it. I like to hold vape hits in a long time and since some convection does happen,the way the bowl/stem is bent works out perfectly. I take a hit, then tuck my middle finger under the bend and lightly lift. It takes the stem, off the heat, then I just roll my finger back, it's on the heat, exhale, two breaths and another hit is ready.

Damn, GS! You got 10 of them? Are you doomsday preppin'? LOL! Enjoy pal. That shit's a bit spendy for my blood but if I could afford it, I'd definitely give it a shot.
