When it comes to vaping our favorite dry herbs and concentrates, we all have our own temperature preferences. Some of us like to vape at high temperatures to get the most vapor, while others prefer to take it slow and go at a much lower temperature for the most flavor. No matter your tastes, there is an ideal range for every type of vaping modality. Whether you enjoy dry herbs or wax, certain temperature settings can make a profound difference in your vape session. Not all material will vape the same, and it is crucial to know what settings can give you the most bang for your buck.

Since the dawn of man, there have been a plethora of ways to consume everything from dry herbs to resins found in plants and trees. New ways to inhale the smoke and vapors from these materials has been an intriguing journey. From the shamans of ancient Peru to modern-day medicine, vaporization has evolved and taken on new demographics in the pursuit of what we all want: happiness. Improving our state of well-being has always been a worthwhile endeavor, with vaporization at the cusp of supporting that premise. Here we will be taking a look at the first methods used to consume various materials through the use of vaporization, and how they evolved from more primitive ways such as smoking.

One of the definite perks of vaping is the discretion it allows. Vapers are able to vape their favorite herb or concentrate while still appearing as just any typical e-cigarette vaper. Due to this, where and when you can vape offers a much broader option than for those who are smoking out of a silicone pipe or a glass bong. However, some people are not comfortable vaping in public and prefer the luxury of vaping in their own home; which stems the question - should you vape indoors? Is it safe? Does it create the same presence as if you were smoking in your home?

Vaporization has opened a whole new world of dry herb possibilities. In the past, the thought of smoking something like St. John’s Wort would have been met with raised eyebrows. Today, things are much different. There is a wide range of dry herbs that are suitable for use in a vaporizer. Amazingly enough, some of these herbs can even be found in your kitchen cabinet. Others however will likely have to be sourced through a botanical shop. Here we will be looking at various dry herbs and their benefits, as well as the proper temperatures to vape them at in order to achieve the desired results. While these are considered natural in comparison to something like tobacco, it should be noted that none of these are intended to replace your medications, and you should definitely consider discussing these options with your doctor.

First and foremost, the most important thing to remember about vaping is that it is all about the person – in other words, there is no ‘right’ answer to this question. Is the idea of enjoying herb or wax without worrying about a lighter appealing? Then, yes. Is the idea of enjoying herb or wax (or oil) without breathing in smoke appealing? Then, yes. Is a compact and powerful tool appealing to you? Then, yes. Even if the answers to some of those are “no” or “maybe” that still doesn’t mean that someone shouldn’t try vaping. Given that the whole question is so case specific, below are a number of different questions that help to break down the most important considerations.

Vapers who can buy e-liquid with nicotine in any strength and bottle size that they want probably have not heard of shortfill e-liquid, but it is out there and it's certainly worth knowing about if your e-liquid purchases are regulated in terms of nicotine strength, bottle size, or flavor. While immensely popular with vapers in the United Kingdom due to TPD regulations imposed on retail e-liquid sales that prevent vapers from buying vape juice that contains nicotine in bottles bigger than 10 mL and with a strength no higher than 20 mg/mL, shortfills are also popular with vapers impacted by bans on flavored e-liquids. If you're wondering why this is, the reason is because shortfills are designed to have either nicotine shots or flavor shots added to them.

If you have ever used a smoking pipe, chances are you have heard the term ‘pipe screen.’ If you have not, no worries. Pipe screens are small cylindrical mesh-like accessories that are inserted into your bowl to tamp down on clogs and scooby snacks. Pipe screens are usually made from brass or stainless steel and come in large packs. You can also find glass pipe screens as well. Large packs are great for pipe screens because they get replaced frequently between a certain number of smoking sessions. You might be wondering, what is a scooby snack? Scooby snacks refer to small chunks of herb that accidentally get sucked into the neck or mouthpiece of a smoking pipe forcing the user to unclog their pipe or accidentally inhale them. Either way, they can be super annoying to deal with. With a pipe screen, you can prevent scooby snacks from occurring. In the next section we will break down the pros and cons of utilizing pipe screens to improve your smoking experience.
