E-Nano from Epickai

[Vapor_Eyes]

This is my first night ever using the E-Nano, and I'm vaping some dry weed for the very first time. Could you give me some pointers? For each load I'm only getting one big hit and no clouds on the others. If I feel the hit does it not matter if there are clouds exhaled?

Sometimes I get material that doesn't produce much vapor but the effects are still there. It's definitely possible.

I tend to load .03-.06 grams of medium grind.

It's hard to quantify how many hits you should get because one hit for me could be three hits for you.

Temperature makes a big difference too, especially with convection vapes like the E-Nano. At lower temps the clouds aren't as dense but you get more of them. Higher temps extract quicker giving more thick, robust vapor but less total hits. Think of it like this, at temp 6 you might get 5 hits, at temp 6.5 you might get 3 big hits, and at 7 you might get one huge hit, maybe a second wispy one.

I take long hits, 20 seconds and up. I often kill a stem in one or two hits.

I usually get 2-3 get hits off each stem I load, probably same as above, .03-.05 per load.....but they are nice tasty hits, and I stir after each hit always.

So I have had my Nano for about a month now and I wish I had bought one sooner one of the best purchases I have ever made
I bought my Nano while waiting for my FF2 to have some issues checked out under warranty I got the FF2 back and still is inconsistent .
The Nano is definitely mine and my wife's go to vape my wife will not even waste her time with the ff2 .
The Nano does not disappoint I can take 1 nice rip off the Nano and feel the effects instantly and the taste is amazing and you get so much out of a small amount and get complete extraction I take the herb that the ff2 can not get anymore out of and get all the rest with the Nano
Well my Nano is nicely warmed up for my Sunday morning coffe and wake and vape I hope everyone is having a good weekend

The E-Nano hits me faster than any other vape. Some vapes creep a bit, but the nano gives me instant effects.

The nano is fast at everything. It's the fastest log to warm up. Once warm it provides instant vapor production. It extracts very fast at high temperatures. It gets me medicated faster. Loading and emptying stems is fast. Even the rare cleaning and maintenance is fast.

The nano doesn't get in the way of your vaping. No elaborate ritual required. If you need to get medicated fast it's got you covered.

If you want to kick back, put your feet up, have a long tasty low temp session and get lost in the beauty of the wood grain, it's got you covered there too.

 

[CarolKing]

I own several vaporizers and the Enano I use the most. It produces great flavor and its always on. Hardly any maintenance required other than keeping the stems clean. I usually soak my stems in the container that they come in with ISO. Then after a day or two I rinse with hot water then they are ready to go.

Just condition the wood every few months with some bees wax. I usually will sit my nanos in the sun or turn them up to warm while the wax is soaking in. A little swipe of the inside with a little ISO every six months. I will squeeze out any dripping ISO as not to clean with a soaking wet Q-tip. Don't get any ISO on the wood.

A very easy vaporizer to use and maintain. The j hook is a nice combo with the nano. I love the vapor taste that this unit gives my cannabis. Most important I love an all glass air path or wood mouthpiece.

The NANO is small and drives most of my water tools!

Sweet Island is so tasty?
NANO @ 6.0 full stem 8 big cloud's and I chase Flavor!

So I still am only getting one good hit per load, even after letting the unit heat up more. And on temp setting 7.5, there was a black spot in my ABV. Does this mean it combusted? The first hit I get is big, but I get nothing for any further hits. Is this vape meant to be a one hitter, or am I using it wrong? I see videos of users getting multiple hits from small amounts of weed and I just don't know how. This is my second day using the E-Nano, so I am still learning how to use it and would like pointers you wish you knew when you first got it.

 

[CarolKing]

@bengaltiger i would turn your temp down to under temp 7. Try 6.75 and see if that works for you. You may have combusted. Folks say they have combusted st 7.5. I personally haven't. My session is around 10 min, sometimes longer.

I use my Enano as more of a session vape. I use temp around 6 to 6.5 depending on my cannabis. If my vapor seems too harsh I turn my temp down. If I'm not getting enough flavor I turn my temp up.

The nano is pretty versatile. It can be used as a one or two hitter and you can sit down for a relaxing session. Whatever way works.

That sounds consistent with my previous advice. 7.5 is the upper range for temp setting for most units; there is some variance as well from different power outlets, surge protectors etc. Even at 7.5 I recommend a faster draw speed to avoid combustion.

Temperature makes a big difference too, especially with convection vapes like the E-Nano. At lower temps the clouds aren't as dense but you get more of them. Higher temps extract quicker giving more thick, robust vapor but less total hits. Think of it like this, at temp 6 you might get 5 hits, at temp 6.5 you might get 3 big hits, and at 7 you might get one huge hit, maybe a second wispy one.

The E-Nano can be a one hitter but it is very versatile and can be used as a session vape too. To get as big of a hit off of .03 grams, would take at least 3 times as much material if I was combusting. And .06 at low temps can give a nice slow session if that's what you're after.

I want to use it as a session vape, but I'm finding that each "session" is one or two hits. Another question is how do I know if the load is done? If there is no more vapor or if the abv is brown? My abv is still fairly green but I don't see any visible vapor when I exhale. Also, what is the minimum amount of bud I can use in one load?

 

[CarolKing]

For me the load is done when the flavor isn't there anymore. I may still have vapor left but I don't like the taste. If the temp is too hot the cannabis will get done too fast. My ABV is usually a medium to a dark brown with a few lighter flakes. If your ABV is black its combusted or you just forgot how long it's been in the oven. That happens to me.

Use your E-pic to measure your load size. I give my cannabis a stir about half way through my session. It helps to redistribute the cannabis. The cannabis closer to the oven gets dark quicker.

Have you moved your screen?
0.06 g is a good weight to start with

 

[Dramma Lamma]

Depending on the house/car and its power supply and which nano I have the temp dial is set anywhere from 5.4 to 7.1 for herb only. The temp of the room/car also can change this.


Screen depth and herb depth are the same dimensions as the E-pick.
I never Smoosh the herb in a lot, just a tad.


2 hits with a stir in-between is all I ever do, some herb only 1 hit (second tastes poor and is tiny.)
I usually like to do 2 or more loads depending on time and mood.


A black spot I'd describe as a char and personally find it to be OK/enjoyable when at a minimum, say 1/3 the surface area on the topmost layer of the herb. Anything more is a notable degradation of flavor.


Any black spots I'd describe as a char, once again minimal is OK personally. Excessive or heavy charing is not cool and you can get all the way up to partial combustion where there is a tiny spot of grey/ash in the center of the char zone. Only 2 times have I ever gone up to full on flame combustion, both times it was due to the cord being bumped and the temp getting moved up without notice.


6+ months of owning a nano and I've yet to use the dry stem ever, I always use a water tool/bong.

 

[Gray Area]

^^^ this pretty much nails it.

7.5 would roast any load in one hit on my nano. More so if it's the first hit after the units been sitting for a while.

My sweet spot usually lies between 6.5 and 7 (max) depending on the usual variables. My screens set a little deeper than the e-pick recommends and I very lightly tamp so the load sits 1-2mm below the heater when inserted in the gong.

Two hits with a stir between, I also always use my nano through water (well, 99.9% of the time anyway - it was months before I used mine too lol). This little thing really shines when sat on top of a bubbler imo

If I haven't used it for a while I'll often give it a good blow down the heater, or a short pull through an empty gong to avoid that "first hit after a while charring" I can sometimes get when its set closer to 7...

The screens get clogged pretty easy from the stirring so I usually swap them out at least daily and give them a bit of a scrape between loads to dislodge any debris. A clean screen helps a lot.

The only time I hit my nano and the load is still green is if I've just turned it on recently and haven't left it quite long enough... Usually get a well roasted first load, but sometimes the following one can be a bit green. But only then... are you leaving it on or turning it on and off between uses?? It's really most effective if left on and allowed to heat soak so the wood gets nice and warm.
I tend to only turn mine off overnight, I know others just turn theirs down a bit.

Hope you get it dialled, had mine 2 years now and it's been running like a champ from day one, always ready.

How exactly do I use my E-pic to measure the load? And my ABV has been green or black, not brown like I want it to be. What kind of draws should I take?


Also, how exactly do I move my screen?

 

[CarolKing]

This is a pic of positioning the screen. Use the opposite side (small end)of the epic for depth finder of how much cannabis from the top. It's a nifty little tool. It works well to give your cannabis a stir.

Dealing with some pain I have some Grape Ape in my Enano tonight. Earlier I had some canna banana bread made with infused cannabis oil. It turned out sooooooo good. Getting ready for bed. The epic makes a nice key chain too, I have a few of the pics.

Grape Ape has the best flavor in my nano.

Move your screen with a pencil or chopstick. This will allow you to push it from either end, even on a dry stem.

Plenty of great advice and tons more throughout this thread. Though I think just all the replies to you in the past page or so should get you started pretty well. Skim the thread for many more tips. Check the video in this post for a good tutorial of small load, close, with fairly low temp on a bubbler. This works well with dry stem, too (just turn heat down about 1/2). Plenty of other good tips down in that part of the thread. Keep in mind that different nanos in different situations will have different temp settings - and that's before we even get to personal preferences.

Make sure you give it enough time to properly warm up. 3 - 5 minutes on 10 and turning it down to preferred temp for a couple minutes works OK, but to get best performance out of nano you want it all the way warmed up. 20 to 25 minutes (or 10 - 15 after setting 10 warm up) should get you there.

Try turning your heat down some. Start at 6.25 - 6.5 if going through water. Try 6 - 6.25 if using dry (just stem). You can always turn it up to squeeze more vapor out, but once you go at a higher temp it's pretty pointless to turn it down on that load. I prefer to stay in the lower to mid-range temps, but you may like it hotter. Try both to see what you like, but IMO if you're charring - you're too hot. When I'm going for flavor and headier effects, I'm usually below 6 if dry. You don't necessarily need to exhale big clouds to get good and stoned.

How much you load is going to affect how much vapor you get, too. But, if you're using about .05 - .07 a load, you should be able to get at least 2 or 3 good hits - maybe even 1 or 2 more after a stir.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is quality of your material. Any vape is going to require pretty good stuff to do much. It's not like combusting where you get everything out of it (good and bad and the brain numbing effects of any smoke). With vaping we only really consume the top end of compounds (lower temp generally the "higher"/headier compounds), so if there are less of them there you'll have less there to vape.

Also, if you haven't vaped much be aware that it is a bit different of a buzz and usually comes on differently.

Hang in there and play with it. I'm sure you'll get it soon if you haven't already.

My abv is still fairly green but I don't see any visible vapor when I exhale. Also, what is the minimum amount of bud I can use in one load?

If you're not already doing it, you may want to use a bubbler with your nano so that you can see the vapor that is being extracted during the hit. That might be a better indication of what is being produced than what you see when you exhale. I load only about .04-.05g in my gong with the nano. With my Solo, I loaded more like .06-.08g. The Solo typically gives me 3 medium density hits and 3-5 lesser hits per 12 minute session. With the nano, I get more like 2 heavier hits and 2-3 lesser hits (if I don't forget to take them) in 5 - 7 minutes. So far, I only use 6 to 6.5 on the dial.
I made a vid a while back using the solo. With the nano, things look pretty much the same, except that the fog is a little more dense on the first couple hits. If you're not getting similar results, maybe it's lesser material?

My wife has never tried CANNABIS.
I have 3 kids: 19;34;37 one smokes cannabis the others no way?

All day GAME CHANGER.
Tonight I forgot the name of the strain.
However it's very effective.
Wendy from PROGRESSIVE told me before bed.
SWEET ISLAND SKUNK right now. (grown in da islands)

NANO @ 6 with water path.

MAX FLIGHT = CIVILIZED
@DarkSm0ke this strain tonight is called PEOPLES? (never had it until tonight) pretty gnarly!

Yeah man, whatever I throw at the nano it hits it back a home run.

Last night things got a bit dicey. I threw some budder in some organic cotton and got some killer hits. Last one I held it in too long... man I was toast. Had too much THC, lol. I had to go straight to bed once I realized the nano sent me into a new sub-orbit. that was the highest I have ever gotten from vaping. It extracted so much from the concentrate, that soon I was unable to concentrate. The Dodger Game I was watching was too complicated for me to follow. I fear cartoons would have been worse. Luckily as high as I was, it was not bad at all.
That being said, not going to do that again. I wish I heard about the nano years ago. You're right as usual @ataxian, the nano is a GAME CHANGER.

You worship 420?
I do everyday!

The NANO I just plug-in 24/7 and rip off it when I feel like.

I have a problem 8 different strains?
My wife gave me the label maker to name my jars.

Plus SHATTER all day and a bag of mystery weed?
6.0 is as much as I can go? It's got to be SWEET HAWAIIAN SKUNK?
I'm still awake?

420 = CIVILIZED

@CarolKing I use my eye and hand?
Da pick look's cool!
Why was I a dumb dumb and threw it away?
Do you celebrate 420 up there?

Kudos to Epicvape on a lighting fast turnaround on a warranty replacement for cracked wood. Wish me luck on this new piece!

I wish I could worship 420 at 4:20 everyday, but I am at work until 5. Driving stoned through Compton is a recipe for disaster. Mine is dialed in from 5.5 - 6.5 for flowers, 7.5 for concentrates. I have found for me, that I use this Medtainer from Amazon to "shred" my herb coarse grind.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DRHIKN..._m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=NNG5E1PG5S9GQR9KP6MR

Sorry, long as fuck link...

It is best to let it air out and dry a bit for a few hours. I get a good clean hit that tastes amazing and like 2 more thick hits before i get the "pop corn" taste and dump it in my ABV jar. the nano serves me well.

I'm just fucking goofing off!

My ABV I make a lotion with it!

@Enchantre has the formula!

I put a dash of PALMERIA fragrant to remind me of Da Islands.

My NANO is normally at 6.5.
With the HAWAIIAN STRAIN 6.0 is just right! (Goldie Lockes)
I will never vape outside my home?
OK WAX PEN when I go out.
However the smell is too strong to stay stealth. (with weed)
I SHATTER when I go out!
At home I vape and enjoy the strains available today!

 

[bengaltiger]

I think I'm finally getting the hang of the E-Nano! Got high, still only getting a few hits and greenish abv but I may lower the screen to fit in more, not sure though.

 

[Reflections]

Experiment with it..we all have had to do,and glad its getting better for you @bengaltiger
