FAQ

Dry herb vaporizers: common questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most often. For deeper reading, follow the link under each answer.

What is a dry herb vaporizer?

A dry herb vaporizer heats ground flower without burning it, releasing the active compounds as vapor instead of smoke. Compared to combustion, vaping is cooler, cleaner, more efficient with your flower, and far easier on the throat and lungs.

Conduction vs convection: what's the difference?

Conduction heats the herb through direct contact with a hot surface, while convection passes hot air through the chamber. Conduction is fast and simple; convection is gentler, more efficient, and brings out flavor. Many modern devices are hybrids that use both.

What temperature should I vape dry herb at?

Most users settle between 365°F and 410°F (185-210°C). Lower temperatures are flavorful and gentle on the throat; higher temperatures produce thicker vapor with stronger effects. Start low and step up to find your sweet spot.

Temperature guide
Are dry herb vaporizers worth the upfront cost?

For regular users, yes. Vaporizers extract more cannabinoids and terpenes from the same amount of flower than combustion, which translates to real savings over time on top of the cleaner experience.

How often should I clean my vaporizer?

A quick brush of the chamber and screens after every few sessions keeps performance consistent. A deeper clean (isopropyl alcohol soak for compatible parts) every couple of weeks of regular use will keep flavor crisp and airflow free.
