Vaping has forever changed the way people enjoy marijuana. Offering a powerful and reliable way to consume cannabis for both recreational and medicinal purposes , but without the health risks associated with smoking, vaporizers are slowly becoming a household name for most regular consumers. And thanks to advances in vaporization technology, vaporizers are becoming more portable and affordable than ever. Whether you're an experienced smoker or vaper or a newcomer, below we share 8 easy tricks for vaporizing weed.
Fresh is always better. Remember that your vaping experience will only be good to the extent that the herb you are vaporizing is. The vaporization process resides in humidity, as it consists of heating a substance to the point where the compounds that are part of it reach the boiling point, and form a vapor that can be inhaled as if it were smoke. Hence, it is always best to use fresh grass, as it is more likely to have higher concentrations of moisture.
The grass you put in your chamber should not be too wet or too dry. A good way to check the moisture content of your flowers or buds is to touch them. Your weed should not feel clammy or wet to the touch, but it also should not be dry to the point that you can crumble it between your fingers into fine dust.
Once you have inspected and determined that your weed is suitable for vaporizing, it is time to chop or grind it. Chopping your grass helps increase the exposed surface area. In turn, this allows the heat from the vaporizer to better penetrate the plant material and produce a nice, thick, flavorful vapor. When vaporizing dry herbs, make sure you grind them well, evenly, not too much and not too little. The best way to do this is with a manual or electric herb grinder . If you don't have one of these tools, chop your herb as you normally would. Just remember that if you want to get a consistent grind, it will probably cost you more if you don't have a proper herb grinder .
Pro Tip: Never chop more herb than you need to fill an entire chamber, as the ground herb remains will dry out much faster.
3. CHECK THE TEMPERATURE
Temperature is the most important aspect of vaping. That is why it is vital that you get the temperature setting right for each session, whether you are vaping dry herb or concentrates. Unfortunately, finding the right temperature is not as simple as it seems. As a general rule, the temperature for vaping should be between 180 and 210ºC. However, you will have to experiment to find the ideal fit. Different cannabinoids vaporize at different temperatures, and slight variations in the moisture content of your bud or the texture with which you've chopped it can also affect how your weed vaporizes. Additionally, many users maintain that vaping at different temperatures produces different effects. Lower temperatures typically make users more functional, with a clearer head, while higher temperatures typically produce an intense feeling of euphoria and relaxation.4. FILL IT WELL, BUT NOT TOO MUCH
Just like smoking through a bong or pipe, the way you fill the chamber of your vaporizer has a huge impact on the overall experience.
Again, you'll have to find the right spot to fill your chamber with enough weed to generate a good amount of vapor, but without overdoing it.
At the same time, you don't want the chamber to overflow, as this could affect the flow of vapor from the chamber to the mouthpiece. Sometimes overfilling can also damage the inside of your vaporizer.
5. PREHEAT THE VAPORIZER
Vaporizers are like ovens, they need a little time to reach their temperature . Just like you wouldn't put a chicken in a cold oven, you shouldn't put your weed in a vaporizer that hasn't had time to heat up. Fortunately, most modern portable vaporizers are capable of preheating in just a few seconds, meaning the vaporizer is usually ready to go when you're done grinding your herb. However, some older models or desktop vaporizers usually take a little longer to heat up. Regardless of the type of vaporizer you use, be sure to read its instructions and learn how to preheat it. This will ensure that your herb is vaporized correctly and consistently, resulting in a vaping experience you'll enjoy every time.
When vaping, remember to take short, gentle puffs. When vaporizers first came on the market, it became fashionable to take huge, long, deep drags from the mouthpieces, as if you were trying to swallow a piece of fruit through a straw at the bottom of your smoothie.
Vaping like this has two main drawbacks: First of all, taking long, strong drags on your vaporizer can cause you to drag some of the weed out of the chamber and into your mouth through the mouthpiece. Second, constantly taking strong hits when vaping introduces cold air into the chamber. This ends up reducing the temperature of your vaporizer, making it harder for the device to operate, and ending up affecting the quality of your vapor.
7. AVOID COMBUSTION
Combustion is the first thing you should avoid when vaping. Combustion is what happens when you light the end of a joint, blunt, or bong. By combusting your weed, you will basically be breaking down the chemical bonds within it, and creating so-called "free radicals." These compounds can then combine with each other creating hundreds of new compounds, most of which are highly toxic and carcinogenic. Keep in mind that the most likely reason you vape is precisely to avoid the negative side effects of smoking. So take your time to experiment with different temperatures to find the sweet spot that allows for the best vapor production, but without burning your herb.
The temperature tips above are a good starting point, but remember to spend some time testing the settings during each session to notice differences in the moisture content and physical consistency of your weed.
8. KEEP YOUR VAPORIZER IN GOOD CONDITION
Last but not least, the best way to ensure a fantastic vaping experience is to properly maintain your vaporizer. Vaporizers, like any other device, must be properly maintained to function properly.
When you purchase a vaporizer, be sure to read the maintenance instructions included in the manufacturer's instruction manual. Follow these steps and get in the habit of cleaning your vaporizer frequently, as well as replacing parts as necessary.
Vaporizers can be quite expensive. To ensure yours lasts as long as it should, remember to care for and preserve it as well as any other expensive device.
