perhaps someone would include an explanation of this [mouthpull technique] for us late arrivals?
I have consumed weed for over 40 years to one extent or another. Now, although I've always enjoyed the effects, it always came with a price; I just hated the inevitable coughing, sore throat and lung irritation.
Then I discovered vaping and although the vapor was less harsh, the unpleasant coughing and irritation remained, dampening the pleasure in getting stoned.
Three things changed all that; the device, my toking technique and filtration. Now, getting stone has no downside. No negative effects. Just pure smooth cool vapor.
First, I discovered the Vapcap. It magically delivers the smoothest vapor of any vaporizer I have tried. I LOVE THIS THING!
Second, I read about
@natural farmer 's mouthpull technique. Once I tried it, I just couldn't believe that it took me so long to discover HOW to toke weed with no irritation!
So, this is it. Toking often is done by simultaneously drawing in vapor while inhaling it into your lungs. The classic joint toke.
Instead, try pulling the vapor into your mouth first, similar to puffing on a cigarette. Cover the carb of your Vapcap to restrict air flow, pull some vapor into your mouth but do not inhale, yet. Imagine that you are sucking up a thick milkshake through a straw. Once the vapor is in your mouth, near the end of the toke, uncover the carb momentarily, then open your mouth and inhale the cooled mouth vapor along with fresh air into your lungs. No need to hold in the vapor endlessly, it enters your system instantaneously, so you can exhale in a reasonably normal way.
This technique has been a total game changer for me and the pleasure of vaping weed is now JUST THAT; pure pleasure!
The third and final element has been filtration. Someone here on FC got me on to this. Sorry, I can't remember who. I found that by adding a tiny disk of degummed hemp fiber to the bottom of my bowl, effectively filters tiny particles that otherwise escape into the airflow. Again, this cuts down on potential irritation and keeps your Vapcap condenser surprisingly clean for an extended period of time.
I have a bowl several times throughout the day, every day and I clean my Vapcap maybe every three months or so and it doesn't even really need it. I mean it just doesn't get clogged up. The screen needs the most frequent cleaning but the filter keeps the condenser relatively clean and when you look through it you do not see any tiny particles stuck to the sides. Just a light layer of perfectly smooth reclaim. No particles in the condenser means no particles in your lungs either.
That's it. A simple technique that only adds to the blissful joy of using a Vapcap!
I hope you try this and that it heightens the experience for you as well.

Enjoy!
Sure, i remember ! Maybe it's only about that, I can't really tell untill I'll feel "I got it ! ".
! But I think I get what you mean : not a long/deep steady draw but more of a short pull/suck kind of draw with carb closed... (aka mouthpull)
, we might see some nice pictures with all those orders.
So 3 heatings, 3 hits and load is cashed!
