Dry Herb Vaporizer Tips

Dry herb vaporizers are just one of the three main types of vaporizers available on the open market. Generally speaking, dry herb vaporizers tend to contain the battery, heating chamber, and mouthpiece arranged from bottom to top. Importantly, the chamber itself often has a small filter or screen where the dry herb is supposed to go. Vaporizers, while powerful, generally have a smaller capacity than the average bowl or bong but the ‘burn’ is much smoother, cleaner, and less uneven (if packed correctly). In this article, we explain everything you need to know about a dry herb vaporizer. 

Choosing the right vaporizer can seem overwhelming. That’s why we’ve put together this list of the best portable dry herb vaporizers in 2020. We’ll breakdown each vape so you can understand the pros and cons of each one.

Vape mouthpieces are integral parts of any vaporizer and will come in as many different shapes and sizes. Each mouthpiece, however, is able to get hot. This is a natural consequence of being located so close to the heating element in a vape and should not cause any undue amount of concern.

Most dry herb vapes are considered convection vaporizers. This means they bake the herbs at a temperature just high enough to release vapor without burning the herb. Because there is no combustion, this is a healthier alternative to smoking. However, this article highlights another type of dry herb vaporizer, a combustion vape. This is basically just an electronic way to smoke herbs. The heating element has direct contact with the herbs, burning them just like a lighter would. This is still slightly healthier than using a lighter as you are not inhaling any butane vapor. However, combustion vapes create smoke just like you would get from a pipe.

With vape pens rising in popularity for vaping concentrates, it comes as no surprise there are plenty of variations to this highly sought after device. Vape pens have the ability to be concentrate specific or by changing out the tanks or cartridges to allow for compatibility with multiple material options. Unfortunately, this also means the exact method for filling your vape pen can be concentrate specific. To help you understand a little more, here is a quick how-to guide for filling your vape pen.  

Vape pens have come a long way over the years and the market has expanded tremendously. As such, it is rather difficult to speak at length about all vape pens because their characteristics can vary dramatically with each specific type. Generally speaking, however, there are certain things that are universal to all vape pens. For example, all vape pens are going to have a mouthpiece with which to inhale your preferred, vaporized concentrate or herb. All vape pens are also going to incorporate some sort of battery as a power source and a heating chamber for the vaporization process. Continue reading to learn more about how vape pens work. 

Vaping has gained a lot of momentum in recent years as an alternative to smoking. Vaporizing heats dry herbs, oils, waxes or other concentrates to a high enough temperature to get them to turn to an inhalable vapor but not so high that the substance combusts or burns. Smoke caused by combustion contains many carcinogens not present in vapor. Additionally, vaporizing provides a cleaner taste so you can fully enjoy the flavor of dry herbs, oils and wax concentrates. There are many types of vaporizers designed for different purposes. We will go into more depth on the types of dry herb vaporizers and how vaping dry herbs differs from smoking them.

Dry herb vape pens can appear a little more intimidating than a typical oil vape pen.

However, do not fret! Using a dry herb vaporizer is actually far easier than you may think. Read this article and you'll learn everything needed to operate your dry herb vape device. 

Whether you are vaping dry herbs, oil or wax concentrate, there are a variety of reasons your vapor could taste burnt, such as high temperature, consecutive heating, and over-used vape coils. In this blog post, we have listed all the possible reasons this could happen and how to avoid it. 

There are a lot of different reasons you may want to try and control the temperature on your vape pen.

Whatever the reason, trying to adjust the temperature on your vape pen is something all vape pen owners will at least think about. The more you get to know your vape pen, the better the understanding you will have in exactly how you can customize the available options. Read this vape guide to learn more about temperature control. 

This is a particularly loaded question. One the one hand, there have been reports in the news about all sorts of unfortunate things happening to people who ‘vape’. However, there really isn’t a good way to broadly describe the vaping market, or the ‘vaper’, outside of saying that they own and use a vaporizer. There are dry herb, wax, e-juice, nicotine, and non-nicotine vapes and tons of different brands and devices and manufacturers. All of these factors really change the risk factors, if any, in using a particular vape product. Overall, vapes are incredibly safe products and when used properly they will never harm their owner.
