I only vape now days. I have a Mighty and a Volcano Hybrid. Use my mighty all week, then volcano on weekends. The joy about the volcano is that I get all the AVB (already vaped bud) from the Mightys week usage and grind it up to a powder and bang, another bag out of it!

I use a pax 3 and think it’s fantastic! It comes with a concentrate insert too for the waxes and shatters. I’ve vaped on and off with a desktop one previously but since I got the pax all I do is vape. Occasionally I might smoke if I run out of battery but I smoke so rarely now I really don’t like the taste.

I got the pax2...and we are not friends lol ...I just cant get it to work...:(

A fine grind and a tight pack works best for me i’ve found. Strange thing is that certain buds just don’t produce much vapour. I’ve had some super orange glue recently that gave loads of vapour but the black lime reserve doesn’t (from drugs inc UK). Not sure why...

yeah ,,,exactly leanbean...it is very hit or miss :)

The pax takes a certain technique to get the best out of it, I've been using my Pax2 for years and love it. I recommend grinding your bud nice and fine and make sure it is packed in relatively tight in the oven (just not tight enough that you can't get a good draw)

I can also recommend the vented oven lid and pusher by New Vape, it helps get an even better airflow. With my Pax I can get nice big clouds, it's awesome! Make sure you save the AVB as well, check out recipes for cannabis coconut oil online.

yeah thanks Nedsynoo...I have the vent thingy and oven lid....AVB????

AVB is Already Vaped Bud, also known as ABV (already been vaped) it's just the leftover bud that comes out of your vape when you're done. It is normally still quite potent and as it has been heated up it is already de-carboxylated, so removes a lot of the effort needed to make edibles with fresh weed.

I like to soak my avb in coconut oil (at a 1:1 ratio) in a pan over a low heat (not so hot that it bubbles) for 30 minutes or so, strain the avb out with cheese cloth or J-cloth and if you have done a good job the oil will go a nice green colour when it cools and solidifies. You can use this in whatever recipe you like or just eat it on it's own, some people will eat the avb straight but it tastes awful. Make sure you start with small amounts because it can get you way too baked!

I tend to water cure my avb to help get rid of the bad taste. I just put it in a big cafetière/french press, fill it with water and leave it for a few days. I change the water once or twice a day until it starts being less brown. My butter comes out brown rather than green though so am guessing I vape at a higher temp.

Do you strain the avb out of the butter before you let it cool down? It might be due to the temp you vape at or maybe that you use butter, who knows but as long as it works!

I tried water curing recently, definitely helps reduce the bad taste although I ended up putting the oil in capsules anyway.

Oh yeah I definitely strain. I’ve found with edibles if I leave the bud in what ever i’ve cooked rather than strain it it will give me itchy eyes. Not sure why or if it’s a common thing but it doesn’t happen when I do strain out the buds. Maybe it’s something other than the thc which causes it?

cheers for the explanation :)

I have a solo 2. Think I paid 150e.. had a few cheaper ones for under a 100e which weren't great..

I've been using the Herbstick FyHit Eco-S for a few months now. Decent, for the price. About £35. Looks like an Ecig Pen, just a little chunkier, so it's nice and discreet. Chamber is a bit on the small side. It holds about 0.2g. Does the job for me though.

Also, replacing tobacco with greengo in spliffs has been a good move for me. Nice burn, I don't think it spoils the taste of the bud and obvs the positives of no nicotine/less carcinogens.

Happy toking

Currently use a mighty and solo 2 for all my consumption. I have an Arizer extreme q but that’s better for shared sessions IMO. Smoked joints and cigarettes for 8yrs and decided I wanted to quit smoking entirely.

My advice is to buy a good one from the start, I wasted a lot of money along the journey so go for something good. Personal recommendation is the mighty but the solo 2 is also a great device if you are on a budget.

One thing to also note is that the experience is different. When you smoke it seems to be have a much quicker effect.
I sometimes get through a vape sesh and it can take 5-10mins after I’m finished for me to really feel it but I find the high much cleaner, nicer and less anxiety inducing

Maybe you can still find one in the sales?

I’ve just got into it and wow it’s amazing. I’m using a mighty and it’s great.
Few days in and it feels right. Completely different effects as you can vape on different settings and get different cannabinoid effects. There’s actually a chart up here explaining different boiling points somewhere.
Best thing is it’s like a holiday for your lungs, then when/if you do combust again, it feels like a whole new experience and heavier body stone. And oh god the tastes are incredible, so nice to taste what you’re using, and I mean REALLY taste it.

thanks Bazz

Hi Bazza
I am looking to get a vapourizor and just wandered do you use flower or hash in your mighty?

Hey bud.
I use both. Generally like a bed of green with hash on top, same with my dynavape, would say hash nicer in dynavape tbh.

Bazza

Hey bazza, I’ve always wondered if it’s possible to vape hash. I take it you can only vape it with bud but does it vape well? Can you notice the difference with say a hash and bud vape as opposed to just a bud vape? I keep seeing all this tasty looking hash on here but I just don’t smoke anymore.

Yeah sure can.
I’d recommend a dynavape with induction heater especially if you’re not a smoker.
Hash by itself or with weed is lovely in it, very good taste and high.

Well I might have to place an order with you when I get paid. I like frankos “heavy eyelids” comment on the Bob marley hash.

Always welcome to.

Franko baby is a legend and right lol

Thank you and stay safe.

Bazza

Yes the mighty is definitely my favourite but you can't beat the solo 2 in terms of ease of use and battery life, so I find they both come in handy.

With my mighty, if I am just using it straight from the mouthpiece I start at like 180c and work my way up to 195c. If I use the WPA and a bong which is my preferred method then I can crank it up to around 205c at the end. In the evenings I tend to to to max temp and I find it really helps knock me out

Crater is a good place to start but u will need to upgrade .Any by STORZ and bickell are very good, mighty is best handheld crafty is similar but has smaller battery (i don't have). Plenty kicks ass but has massive chamber and I mix with cbd weed to make it go further and it is very strong so tames it down a bit and if you are not sharing a full chamber try .65g and place a gauze on top to stop herb from moving.Volcano classic is the same but with bags great way to share.I have recently got in to vaping and it is the best way take weed and I am having to try all strains again I am a flavour chaser.Also if you have classic volcano or plenty u can make oil with left overs.Dry herb vaping is like Garlic bread the furture lol.Any Cali weed in Mighty has so much flavour blue cheese is also tasty Stawdawg probably king and silver haze also very nice i like the high good luck

Hi, I bought one off ebay before an 'edge' (never heard of this brand but can be found typing Edge-2-in-1-Dry-Herb-Wax-Vaporizer-2000m) cost £27 as I am a cheapskate but I scoured the reviews for weeks before making a purchase and it's amazing, same as one's costing over £100 that i've tried

AVB is really nice to fall back on, I'm not keen on the stone from vapes as much as spliffs but wow you can re-use your stash, that's one big big plus
also the plus that it hardly smells so can get high walking around wherever you like lol.
