I don't think we're supposed to compare vapes in vape threads, there's some vape compare threads in the vaporizer discussion forum that get used sometimes:
My bad, thanks for the tip though!
No!
Great idea! I also agree about having a couple 18mm.This is normal. Being able to see through the entire air path can show the realities of inverted vaping. The GS was made to be very cleanable. You should be able to disassemble it in under a minute. The handle and 3way are small enough to fit in a 1 gallon bucket or 1 gallon ziplock. I keep a second 3way adapter in a bucket of simple green to swap out as needed.
There is no need. The heater starts just below.
Bee!
Someone actually tagged me in the compare thread today, though they asked why I preferred the symphony to the flowerpot so it's more about that then a comparison of the 2.
Be sure to try to temp step w/ it. I view the new bowl as +80F or so on the controller.
Ah starting with the stadium is a great way to do it. Last night I actually turned the heat down 50 degrees to 900 and am still extracting in the same number of hits. Better taste and abv much lighter the way I like it. I was actually going to try lowering it again tonight, I'll try 30 so it's 80 lower than what I use with the stadium.
It comes in a few pieces you need to put together, but it's incredibly easy. I think it's basically a 3 way adapter, heater, glass beads, handle, and clips. If I remember correctly you put the heater in the 3 way, clip it, pour in beads, pop on the handle, clip it, done. Mine came with 2 bowls with the screens already pristinely in place.
What a tasty design!@little maggie @jojo monkey
Been meaning to do this for a while, now seems like a good time!
Here is a basic assembly guide and tutorial and how to use...
Assembly is easy and you do it once.
If you can lift a mug of tea and place it on a coaster, then you can use this vape.
Just remember: If you break a lot of glass adpaters/WT's, this is NOT the vape for you.
The Glass Symphony Vaporizer
Pure glass air path with only a Stainless Steel screen to hold your herb.
Contents of package:
1 – 3 way adapter
2- Heater module
3 – Air inlet tube
4 - Glass beads
5 – Herb bowl
6 – 2 Stainless Steel Kek clips
7 – Spare screens, Joint lube and a bar of beeswax.
You provide:
1- Digital controller compatible with heater pin layout
2- 18mm Water tool of your choosing.
3- A stand of some sorts, this is being worked on and will come with the final version.
Assembly
This is what you should receive in the Beta package.
Assembly is very straight forward!
First place the heater in the 3 way adapter.
Then turn the assembly upside down being careful to hold the heater in place. Check the position of the heater; it needs to be centered for best results.
Hard to capture due to all the clean glass.
Should be nice and centered.
Add the Stainless Steel Kek Klip.
Grab the bag of beads and snip the corner off. Large enough for the beads to slowly pour out, under control!
Slowly pour them in while gently shaking and tapping the three way adapter on a soft surface till you have used up all the beads.
Add the draw tube and a KEK clip and you are done!
How to use
1- Plug XLR connector into your controller and switch on.
2- Depending on your controller you may need PID settings which will be sent prior to the GS arriving.
3- Allow GS to heat up to your preferred temp and allow to heat soak for 5 minutes.
4- Grind up your herb to a fine consistency and add 0,1g or less to the bowl.
5- Tap the sides of the bowl to center the load, it does not need to cover the whole screen.
6- Add bowl to your Water Tool and place the GS on top
7- Empty lungs and inhale quite rapidly and consistently until vapor decreases or stops.
8- Hold in for a few seconds and exhale.
9- Stir load and you may get one smaller hit.
10- Discard and reload, rinse and repeat as required.
Since writing this i also use larger loads and smaller draws to finish the bowl.
I have also dropped my temps by almost 100F and am still blown away!
It's an awesome vape!
How about a heat gun with an adapter for herb?
Only 1 way go find out!
The big 24/40 clamps give you issue? You ever try a little grease or oil on the clamp?
I once looked into these before I walked this path. I kept getting stuck on two questions: How do you clean the insides of a heat gun and can you trust the air path you can't see. Besides that, I leave the GS on all the time and can get a hit as soon as I load it. I don't think I'd leave a heat gun running all day.
Thanks for all that. I am floored.
. I've been getting massive hits from small loads . One pull messed me up last night at 830 on the dial
The videos are up. Friend request me on instagram. Anthony zaio
Today is a quieter day with no house showings so far, time to break out the GS!!
And of course i will be test driving the new micro bowl!
I was told to drop the temps by 100F which i did and the results were amazing!
Flavor, clouds you name it, it had it! Had me sweating and humming! LOL!
But the herb was still green!!
Have to try that again...same results!
Bump up to 800F, 40 lower than my usual temps...
Holy cow-a-bunga dude!!!
Almost instant whitewall, great flavor and more major sweats...
Herb was slightly darker but still green!
Next up was a sipper bowl! About 0,5g and just small sips till the tube is white then stop, do not remove heater.
Savor the outstanding flavor and effects of each hit! Vapor only takes a second to start again.
This time i went till i could no longer see any vapor and the herb is slightly tan color!
Just tried my RooR bowl for comparisons and it keeps the terps right up front!
First hit and my nose is tingling for the past few minutes, no sneezing just this odd tingling!
Flavor was even better but not by much, just the terp rush is stronger.
Super sweaty...LMAO!! Such a noob still after 20+ years...
Lots more testing to be done with the new bowl!
Another winner @jojo monkey !!!
Mine has been rock solid, zero issues, zero build up in the elbow since day 1!
A superior vaping experience for the flower lovers!
EDIT:
Just did about 0,5g in the micro bowl as a sipper load!
About 5 good hits and then whispy ones.
Herb was darker this time as well!
Effects are way strong with this vape!!
I think I paid 220 for mine and had to get a pid controller for another 80-85. I believe. If you don't have a controller, jojo will pair up one with your device for some additional cost
