A number of people have turned away from smoking cigarettes and have adopted a healthier way to smoke. Vaporizers allow people to inhale herbs, which is much healthier than smoking rolled cigarettes. However, vaporizing is a relatively new phenomenon and some people don’t understand how to use the necessary tools. Here is a number of vaporizer tips to get you started.
Proper Loading: Using a vaporizer necessitates a bit of research. Rather than go on intuition, learning how to use your vaporizer will improve the amount of vapor, the strength, and smoothness of the process. Be sure to read the instructions or ask an in-store vendor how to use the device. If you’re buying a vaporizer online, read reviews and consider asking questions in related forums.
Fine Grinding:Â Most vaporizers work better when the herbs are well grounded before loaded into the device. Like vaporizers, not all grinders are made the same. Cheaper models grind the herbs yet a higher end grinder will produce a finer blend, which leads to a smoother vaping session.
Tight Pack:Â A number of vaporizers work better when packed tightly. Otherwise, the inner components will not heat evenly, which affects the taste as well as the vaporizing of the herbs. However, if your herb is not finely ground, packing tightly will have a reverse effect. Packing the vaporizer with coarse materials will influence how well it burns and may clog airflow.
Dry Herb:Â Drier herb vaporizes a lot better than moist blends. You may find that taking your herb out of a container and leaving it out in the open will help it dry. Taking this insight a step further, grind your blend first and then leave it out to dry.
Down Pat: Pack the herb into the vaporizer and pat it down with a loading tool or your finger. This may take some experimentation and experience. You don’t want to pack so tight that you restrict airflow, yet you want to pack the herb tight enough so that the blend is burned evenly and smokes smoothly.
Industry Lingo:Â Pay attention to the lingo associated with a particular model. Some vaporizers are better at addressing loose packs. Vaporizers that are labeled with the word convection do better at vaporizing loosely packed chambers. Conversely, models that are labeled with conduction work better when the chamber is tightly packed.
Varied Intent: Your intentions will dictate the type of vaporizer you purchase. For example, some are meant for blends of dried herb and tobacco. As discussed above, the blends are either well ground or packed a bit looser in the chamber according to preference and model. Oils and waxes, often used for aromatherapy, can also be vaporized, and warrant a particular model of vaporizer. Combination vaporizers allow users to vape oils, waxes, and blends, which often requires different attachments. If you’re looking for herbal vaporizers for health reasons, read multiple online reviews.
Desktop and Portable Models:Â If you enjoy vaping at home, then you may want to invest in a desktop model that plugs into an outlet. Most agree that desktop models produce a more powerful and thicker smoking experience. Alternatively, portable models are smaller and present the ability to smoke on the go. They are lighter in weight and often powered by a small, in-device battery that requires occasional charging.
Different Desktops:Â Some prefer to invest in desktop and portable vape models. When choosing a desktop model, be mindful of the different varieties. Whip vaporizers use a glass wand and tubing that pulls the vapor out of the unit. Balloon or bag models transfer the vapor into a bag or balloon that inflates. Users then inhale the vapor from the balloon, which is a popular option when vaping with a group. Dual vaporizers give users the option of using the wand/tube or filling a bag.
Clean Accessories: The function of a vaporizer relies on how well you maintain the parts and accessories. Follow the instructions in the owner’s manual. Never use a wax model to vaporize blends; it won’t work well and could damage your device. Some models may call for part replacement while other components can be cleaned regularly. Check your warranty to see which parts are covered and can be reissued by the manufacturer.
Right Temperature:Â Particular models allow users to change the temperature of the vaporizer while others will fluctuate in performance depending on how long you hold down the operation button. Each model will perform a bit differently so it makes sense to speak with other users as well as store representatives to achieve desired performance.
