First steps - where to start your adventure with vaporization

Until recently, smoking was the primary method of absorbing active substances from herbs. It was the cheapest and at the same time the fastest solution, which, however, also posed a great danger from the health side. Now, however, things are completely different and vaporizers have taken over the priority when it comes to smoking herbs. These are small devices that are used to heat herbs to a temperature close to their burning (about 220 degrees Celsius), without exceeding this limit. After reaching such a high temperature, the drought releases all its active substances and fragrances in the form of a safe, aromatic vapor that does not irritate the lungs and does not cause any serious side effects. Interestingly, it might seem that steam does not have as many positive effects as smoking - but the opposite is true.

Find out about the benefits of vaporization

Vaporization has many advantages thanks to which it is used by lovers of all kinds of drought, which is why it becomes the most popular device for fans of dried herbs. It is worth emphasizing here the most important asset for responsible fans of this type of activity, i.e. security. Smoking dried and tobacco is very dangerous to your health. As a result of combustion, dangerous toxic and carcinogenic compounds are formed, as well as a lot of tar substances that directly affect the respiratory system of every human being. They act like glue and clogpulmonary tubules, reducing the ability to absorb oxygen when breathing. This is especially visible in heavy smokers who get tired of the lightest physical activities, such as cleaning or going for a walk with the dog.

On the other hand, vaporization is heating the herbs to the optimal temperature (about 220 degrees Celsius), which results in the release of all active substances and aromas, without tar and carcinogenic toxins. Another difference is the way of heating the herbs. There are models on the market that carry out this process by conduction, convection andhybrid. Conduction vaporizers are equipped with heated walls that heat up the dried material that comes in direct contact with them to the optimal temperature. Therefore, they require a fine grinding. In convection models, herbs are heated by passing heated air through the dried fruit, which then reaches all the leaves. Hybrid models combine the advantages of both solutions, but can be much more expensive.

Refineinhalation technique

Inhaling is quite a demanding process, but it can be made a little easier by following some of our tips. First of all, always try to inhale as long and as deeply as possible while inhaling. Only in this way will you extract the optimal amount of aroma and active substances from the herbs. Filling the lungs only to half of their volume is only a waste of valuable herbs and, as a result, shorter inhalation. Moreover, inhaling too quickly with portable models reduces the temperature of the herbs.

OnIn our society, there is a misconception that the steam generated by heating the herbs should be kept in the lungs as long as possible in order to achieve the maximum effect of active substances. Nothing could be more wrong. The active substances are immediately absorbed by the body and it does not need more than 1-2 seconds.

Grinding the dried fruit counts

The level of grinding of the dried material, known in the vaping community as grind, is extremely important in terms of extracting the right aroma and the amount of active substances from it. Fine grinding allows the heated air to reach the largest possible surface, increases the efficiency of the entire device and the amount of active substances generated. Throwing whole leaves into the vaporizer without first grinding them means that only a small part of the active substances contained in the dried can be used, while the rest remains "trapped" inside the single, unground leaves. It is worth getting a grinder, a small grinder used only for grinding herbs. You can't go without it!
