It may just be that you're holding the battery in for too long, I push it in untill I see the first sign of vapour in the tube, toke for about 3-5 seconds quite slow, let the battery go and then just keep toking for as long as I feel comfortable, my green turns brown and looks like cigarette tobacco once finished.
until you get the feel for it. Shouldn't take too long. You'll know when you're doing it right...like bitchilly mentioned, it should look a lot like tobacco when you're done.
Imma puff one right now.... I like to over pack the trench just a tad ..leave enough space to shake it up when you need to
There is an easier way to be able to show first hand If your doing it properly ( well minus some technique ) ....
Are you getting decent vapor rips????..... with a full packed trench the hit shouldn't be fast enough to get the "goods" to whirl inside with a smaller trench every now and then it will break free from the screen and spin ..when it does it's not working effectivly due to low surface area contact with the bud and the heat
When you get to smoke, coals and fire Stage.... you should see a distinct difference In Appearance, Behavior And Taste Of the Vapor/ Smoke..... And yes It does tend to condensate a bit under the lid as it warms up ....after awhile it builds up there and has to be cleaned off or you will stop seeing the vapor cuz it's just gunked up ...And the hit ....If you let it heat up for too long and it's really hot ....It may be fast and short And really thick Hit ....I like to draw for a about 10+ seconds slow and steady Much like a Whip style Vape.... But with a slightly open mouth around the stem so not all on my suction is directed threw the LB but is instead mixed with a bit of air ...... The faster you draw the cooler the screen will become and thus longer and more consistent hits will be ...in this regard It's all personal preference which technique you pick up and use
lol, you're gettin really high, so that's a good sign. I usually do a slow, steady draw until I nearly can't inhale any longer (helps if you do a deep exhale just before hitting it)...could very well be more than ten seconds. Def more like your ssv than say, hitting a bong.
I was going to call it wand hash But It's more like stem Hash Lol Their one and the same
MFLB Isn't Even Quite in the same category as the desktop Vapes not even the cheap ones (the new wall adapter really closes a big gap, but Still not Quite the same League) But as far as portable vapes tho Go I'd rather slip that little white battery charger in my back pocket and go than a can of butane...it really is Small Quiet And effective
I was thinking about getting a ssv. It's worth the money? I'm still not sure if a bag-type vapo would be right for me (I'm usually the only one toking most days)...and the volcano is double the price of a ssv. I haven't really read a bad word about the ssv (unlike some others that I've read about)...although I've heard mention that the vapor that comes out of it might be a bit hot (i.e., harsh on the throat)...has that been your experience, or no?
