Vapor Draw Best Practices
Vapor Draw Best Practices , Box Syle Vaporizers
There are few basic steps that should be followed when using a box style vaporizers such as the VaporWarez VaporCannon, Easy Vape Digital or Vapor Brothers vaporizer (all of the handsfree vaporizers and standard box vaporizers we carry). Follow these easy steps for the perfect vaporization experience.

1. Grinding Your Blend
Grinding your blend is perhaps the most critical and neglected step of vaporization. Grinders allow you to grind your blend to the proper consistency for vaporization each and every time.
We HIGHLY recommend the use of an Grinder, but you can use other items such as a coffee grinder, be careful not to over grind it, if your blend becomes powder then it will fall through the screen.
You may also use scissors or your fingers, but you have to make sure there no clots or clumps and the blend has that even consistency necessary for vaporization.
2. Turn on the Vaporizer
Turn on your VaporWarez VaporCannon, Easy Vape Digital or Vapor Brothers vaporizer and turn the knob all the way to the right (the higest temperature).
For the VaporWarez VaporCannon there is an on off switch, the Easy Vape Digital by pressing the knob in and the vaporbros just gets turned on by rotating the knob.
Various units have different methods of turning on, please consult the respective vaporizers operating instructions.
3. Load your Vapor Whip / Handpiece
The absolute best way to load your vapor whip is by vacuum power, sounds strange, but believe us, works great.
Pick up your vapor whip, the small glass piece at the tip, is the mouthpiece. The larger of the two ends is the loading chamber.
Basically what you do is put the loading chamber over a small pile of evenly ground blend and suck it up into the loading chamber by breathing into the mouthpiece and creating the suction.
It’s that easy, your going to want to load up the filling area up about 1/3 (about a ¼ gram or 1/3 of a teaspoon) of the way, it should be loosely packed so the hot air can flow easily through your blend.
This is the very best technique we’ve discovered for loading your vapor whip, we use to scoop it in various ways, but the vacuum method works the best!
4. Vaporize
Now when your ready to vaporize, we’re assuming your vaporizer is ready as well, so you must at this point have already warmed your vaporizer up to your desired temperature (please consult your vaporizers operating manual to determine this).
If you notice, most vaporizers have the heating element at a 45 degree angle, so by nature your blend will want to spill into the heating element when you attach the end..
What you need to do if your vaporizer operates like this is maintain a slight suction on your vapor whip, so that you avoid this spillage. It’s quite easy once you get the hang of it.
So once you either attach your vapor whip or hold it to your vaporizer, start breathing in with deep inhalations, this will cause the visible vapor to be drawn from your blend.
Take long steady breaths to achieve the best results.
There are several techniques to achieve the best vapor draw, lets explore our favorite.
5. Getting the Best Vapor Draw
Here is where it gets tricky, as different vaporizers are all slightly different and the draw you use on one may not work on another.
We suggest you turn your vaporizer up as high as it will go and then take long measured inhalations from your vapor whip.
We suggest turning it down until you achieve the exact flavor your looking for.
Your aim is to turn the heat down to the lowest possible heat and still be able to produce visible vapor from your unit.
The variation of draw speed and temperature are the biggest factors.
There are a few things to look for so that you know your vaporizing correctly.
6. Rules of Thumb
Hot Element: Increase the speed of your vapor draw so as not to burn your blend, as the element cools down you can decrease your draw speed.
Slow Element: Your vapor draw should be very slow, but avoid burning your blend and creating smoke.
The key is experimentation, see what draw style works best for you.
7. When is my Vapor Draw Over?
This is really hard to say as different blends have different draw times and such.
Here are some factors we use in determining when our blends are spent.
Color: It should look like the life was sucked from your blend. The blend should become some shade of yellow or light brown. If it becomes black or charred, you’ve gone way to far.
Flavor: blends generally have a distinct flavor once their essential elements have been extracted from them. In most cases it begins to taste like burnt popcorn. You know you are finished once this happens.
Vapor: Basically your blend is spent once they stop producing vapor at the normal temperature you vaporize at.
So using Color, Flavor and Vapor, you should be able to determine whether your draw is completed or not.
The learning curve is very short, anyone can be up and using their handsfree vaporizer or standard vaporizers the very first day they receive it.
