With vaporizers you can vaporize tobacco, herbs, oils and resins. With the classic vaporizer for tobacco and herbs it is not always possible to vaporize oils and resins, but with some models and with the help of the appropriate titanium cylinder this is possible.

Weed portable vaporizer: how does it work?

Many customers and patrons, curious to try, ask us: How does the herb vaporizer work?

Those who choose to switch to the use of vaporization decide to adopt one of the healthiest methods of all for consuming herbs, plant material and essences.

Vaporizers work by heating the plant substance via a heat source which, however, does not activate the combustion process. When it reaches a temperature between 185° and 195°C, the terpenes, flavonoids and all the healing substances within the herbs pass from the viscous solid stage to the gaseous stage through vaporization and free from toxins.

In this way the healing effects arrive in a very short time, even less than 5 minutes. In fact, the function of vaporizers is recommended for medical use than recreational use, very suitable for aroma therapy.

The advantages of the herb vaporizer

Compared to the intake of grass with combustion, vaporizers reduce or even completely eliminate the emission and consequent assimilation of harmful substances such as tar, hydrocarbons, toxins and soot, without affecting the respiratory system at all. Vaporizers also give clearer and clearer effects of the substances and also for this reason they are recommendable for therapeutic uses. Even the flavors and aromas can stand out in a clearer and more pleasant way, this is because through vaporization the terpenes and flavonoids remain much more intact. Finally, taking therapeutic substances such as cannabis through vaporization allows you to reduce the consumption of herbs by up to 4 times.
We advise you to completely dry the plant material to enjoy the vaporization to the fullest.

Regarding the use of the vaporizer, it is best to inhale slowly, hold the air in your mouth for a few seconds and release it little by little. Vaporizing is especially suitable for people with nausea and lack of appetite (also due to chemotherapy), for those with degenerative diseases of the nervous system, arthritis, muscle spasms, migraines. But also to stop smoking cigarettes: many in fact use it to facilitate the difficult task of giving up tobacco.
The temperature of the vaporizer depends on the type of plant resin from which we want to benefit. Some active ingredients can be toxic, so we recommend that you inform yourself carefully before using a plant you are not familiar with. To use it with different types of medical plants for example, it is best to choose the one that offers a wide temperature range and the possibility of regulating it.

Portable vaporizer how to use them

  • Portable vaporizer is an increasingly used tool among people who need to always have it with them, the batteries now last 3-4 hours of vaporization.The combustion chambers are not large, therefore they guarantee a good capacity. The best sellers and also of best quality are undoubtedly the crafty + vaporizer and the mighty pus vaporizer by Storz and Bickel, but now on the market there are portable vaporizer models in various price ranges such as the da vinci portable vaporizer, the portable vaporizer ascent, the CFX boundless portable vaporizer and others in the low price range such as nokiva herbva or Ald Amaze.
  • Vaporizer pens Their size makes them very useful for those looking for a small and discreet vaporizer in use. In fact, pen vaporizers are smaller compared to portable vaporizers and also very affordable.

Tabletop vaporizer

Unlike portable ones, the desktop vaporizer is used when you are comfortable on a sofa at home. This type of vaporizers are very convenient to use and the performance is very high. In most cases, with these vapes you vaporize using a glass torch or nozzle, while for example the Volcano vaporizer works by inflating a balloon. How does the Volcano balloon work? once the material to be vaporized has been placed in the heating chamber, close it and apply the balloon, at this point the vaporizer is turned on and it will automatically fill the balloon with steam, when it is full it detaches from the vaporizer valve and is inhaled directly from the balloon.

Homemade herb vaporizer

How to build a vaporizer:

  • A thermal pickler with adjustable heat (it is a tool usually used for painting metals, available in hardware stores)
  • A glass jar with a flared neck
  • A cork the size of the neck of the jar
  • A cone-shaped cannula made of glass that conducts the air outwards
  • An elbowed glass cannula, to be inserted into the wide side of the cone
  • A shorter and smaller cone that will serve as a brazier
  • A long glass cannula, which can be inserted at the end of the brazier and which goes to the bottom of the jar or at least exceeds the expulsion cannula by 10-15 cm.
  • Bong screens to be applied to the bottom of the bowl
  • The process is similar to that of the water pipe.
  • The cork stopper is pierced in two places, one with the diameter of the long cone, the other with that of the glass tube
  • You install the stove on the tube and the elbow straw on the long cone.
  • Close the jar and place the material to be vaporized in the cooker already equipped with a grill.
  • Place the pickler on the top of the stove, and increase the temperature until you see steam in the jar
  • Aspirate the steam through the elbow cannula

Some examples of essences and their vaporization temperatures:

  • Aloe Vera 183°C
  • Eucalyptus 130°C
  • Lavender 130°C
  • Melissa 142°C
  • Sage 190°C

Cannabis

The average optimal temperature for cannabis is between 180° and 210°C. A temperature lower than 190°C tends to give a more cerebral effect, whereas temperatures higher than 190°C tend to give a more corporeal effect. The two most effective and well-known active ingredients for therapeutic purposes are THC and CBD, but there are many others, contained in the above-listed botanical species. The temperature at which THC can be vaporized starts at 157°C. According to your needs, therefore, by adjusting the thermostat, it is possible to decide which active ingredients to inhale
