Are you vaping your herbs?

by m1ll0m1n4t4

Are you vaping your herbs?

What's your favourite vaporizer and why? I just got the Nectar Gold, first time vaper. Seemed to tick all the boxes for the price point > convection, 2-in-1, portability, pass-through charger... what are your thoughts, experiences, preferences?

PieBoy

Dynavap. Very cheap for a vape this effective although you do end up buying a few. With adjustments it will vape anything. Simple, close to indestructible, adapts to your preferences, super discreet on your person.

I have a good desktop setup for sessions but it rarely comes out tbh.

Father_Jack

Agree, everybody needs a dynavap!

Been using my Arizer air for 3 or 4 years now and it's never let me down. It's definitely closer to the more basic end of the market (but then again I'm a basic bitch!). Gives a nice mellow vapor draw at low/medium temp and a thicker cloud at higher temp when you really want to get every last hit from a bowl.
I mostly smoke at home and it has a pass-through charger, so battery life isn't really high on my priorities list, but an extra battery while out and about is a nice safety net.
Don't imagine i'll ever go back to rolling (despite missing the ceremony of it and the delight of a really good roll).
And the bonus with vapes is that the duff left over makes for pretty damn good brownies (10g finely ground duff to 200g butter yields a half tray of brownies that gives me couch lock on two small bites an evening), and i also clean my glass stems and filter screens in a jar of iso, which every six months or so yields a small amount of rudimentary hash (simply pour the dirty iso onto a plate and let it evaporate fully and you're left with a cannabis residue that can be scraped off and rolled into a ball and set aside in case of emergency).
(Very) Long story short, yes, yes I vape.

I've learned so much from this reply xD thank you for sharing!

So after trying the Nectar Gold for a couple of weeks, reading your comments and doing some more research... this is where I'm at, from a newb to vaping pow:

* Nectar Gold: after two weeks, still trying to find a sweet spot, vaping at 190-195 degrees C seems to work fine,giving me about 8min of very light clouds and mild flavour (the first 2-3 puffs are the strongest, then I just rely it's doing its job cos I can feel it, and by the almost transparent clouds). Vaping straight to 220 will just consume all faster with no improvement to the experience or result. The leaves are still greenish but dry after I finish, which seems to me it's great for reusing them to cook edibles.

* Dynavap 2021 cap + BB9 glass stem: I've only had this for a day and definitely need to learn more cos I can only manage a couple of good clouds at first and then completely rely on the almost transparent clouds and the fact I am indeed high after I smoke it. Decided to get a glass stem instead of the M body because 1) cheaper, 2) colder puffs (++you can barely feel them on your throat). Liking it so far, an ingenious device, absolutely like the fact it doesn't need battery nor recharging. Neg: the leaves are charred black by the end, similar to ash, not sure it'll do much for cooking with them.

*Overall: none of these two have actually convinced me to let go of a jay altogether (just yet)! My goal is to stop combustion and tobacco, so I still need to find the best way to use these two, which I've decided to keep, and learn the best method to vaping with them.

Very informative post, thanks for following up! You are going down exactly the same journey as I did (5 vapes) and I have to say again that the station at the end of the line is The Mighty! I know I know…it just seems too expensive, but the hits you get off a 0.1g dosing capsule (I start at the default 185c and build to 195c) are top flight and can save you money. I have a big jar of vaped weed which is fit for any number of uses- I can even sprinkle it on my cereals! ;)
I’m just swapping out the plastic cooling unit for stainless steel with titanium and glass spouts for even better draw & taste- there’s no stopping me now- I’ll die poor but smiling! ;)

PieBoy

ABV on your cereal = drinking bong water.

pollypuff20

Cool!..I’ll use bong water instead of milk! ;)

PieBoy

You need stem milk from your dynavap.

pollypuff20

Yum!

PieBoy

Not going to speak for the electric ones, plenty of others for that.

On the Dyna, if it's going black your heat source is a bit close and you're probably pushing too hard.

Forget about clouds, that's more a smoke thing and a reddit thing. Stick to the click, leave the airport open and concentrate on the effect. Build from there.

Costi

Dynavap for me. And a Clipper jet lighter. Very effective and portable. It has a learning curve before you master “da big cloudz”
Cheers!

Currently liking the vapman because of the routine with it and how nice it tastes. Electric wise I like the 510 mods like the stempod si but that's cause I like tinkering.

Father_Jack

Nice! I love my Vapman. I also have a Dynavap and a Lotus. They all have different strengths, but for me the vapman usually preserves flavour the longest and is the microdosing king. I still need a decent electric vape to use out and about though...

DeadRabb1t

I have a few Dyna's now but no lotus though there is one on UK entexchange I'm trying to ignore at the moment. The Vapman has really blown me away with how little I can use for a really nice session and still taste the green oh and feel the effects.
I for reasons don't spend more than £100 per vape so the electrics I own are all lower than that but my favourite is the nebula X (UK version of the vivant alternate) it's effectively replaced my smono 3 (fury 2 clone) boundless cfv V2 and davinci miqro and it's only £60. Honestly for the money it's excellent

m1ll0m1n4t4

That's exactly where I'm at. I didn't want to spend more than £100 but also wanted to find a good all-round option good enough for small doses. I'm really tempted to try the Dynavap, lots of you have mentioned it! And the reviews are equally good.

Costi

For your budget, go for Dynavap Omnivap titanium. You will not regret. Oh.. and a good jet lighter.

bpwmemmott

Got a dynavap. Game changer.

sensiman

Great topic and one I wanted to start myself....toyed with £100 and just under vapes but still can't kick the j's.....

Will the mighty really be the answer...I will splash the cash if I think it will but still not convinced anything can replace a j??

Much love

pollypuff20

It’s fair to say you can’t BEAT a joint. But it’s amazing what you can get from a modern vaporiser when you consider that you are dumping all the evils of combustion in one go. Apart from killing you (slowly) combustion destroys an entire spectrum of natural given terpenes, flavours and goodies that can be enjoyed by vaping. Only THC survives the flame, everything else is lost…it brings a tear to my eye 😢 Vape and you can have it all and still get completely bolloxed! 😍
You have to want to give up combustion, but you’ll be surprised how little you’re giving up!

sensiman

I have to to cut down the combustion at the very least so going to pull the trigger on the mighty. Thanks for the replies.

Much love

pollypuff20

Cool…let us know how it works out for you🤞

PieBoy

You'll either end up with a Mighty or similar and think everyone else is nuts, or a butane powered Dynavap / Stickybrick or clone and think the Mighty owners are wrong.

Neither will directly replace J's but how long do you want to keep drawing in all that poison?

furball

Not sure how old these posts are but I'm a PAX 3 guy all the way for herb or concentrates. Pricy but worth it. I'm hooked on the flavour, tried my pipe recently and it tasted disgusting and I used to love my pipe.. That's my 2 cents, some would say no sense at all 😉

exoshino

Very helpful topic as I've been researching Vaping but so far only use them for NICO.

pollypuff20

The Mighty is a game changer. I have 5 others before I finally plumped for it and I was very sceptical that it could really make that much difference for the cost. Oh boy- it does!…worth every penny and more…

speckledjim2

Crafty+ by Storz-Bickel, 4 or 5 times a day for over a year! Just remember to clean out once a week or the pipe gets oiled up. No battery problems so far, I leave charging when not using. Also have a Pax3, don't really get on with it so leave for my missus who partakes way less often.
