    Thanks. I will use alcohol to clean it. I hope be ok then. I am considering to use some dry tobacco, like Old Holborn. Anyone else who had tried it? In what temperature?

    Hi there, There is no indication on this subject in the user manual. When the unit is cold, it may be best to clean with a cleaning brush while vacuuming up the dirt raised. And turn on the air pump once before replacing the filling chamber. If there is only dust it should be enough. :)

    My buddy has my original Volcano from 2004, the old model with the slower air pump. - However, the air pump has stopped working properly (very weak flow), so I am thinking that the pump itself has failed or maybe a diaphragm has failed, thus allowing weak pressure. Storz and Bickel have quoted...

    I got it! I had no idea they did that, which is great considering the unit isn't $99. They should cover something as essential as item you need! It is kind of known as the Rolls Royce of vapes or maybe the disco ball of vapes! (everyone has seen it)

    The device(classic) itself is pretty simple. Basically 3 main components- an insulated heating element with dial, an air pump, and a very simple pressure regulator. The air pump is similair to the types used in aquariums. I have sourced some online, but they're wholesalers. Before covid, S&B...

    I've owned my volcano classic since 07. During the time, I've only had to bring it in once. I'm having issues with my pump now, and noticed it takes 1-2 minutes to fill a 3 gallon turkey bag. I've tried reaching out to S&B, and it's been a week with bo response. I would do the work myself since...

    Would you mind taking a picture of your setup? I was just thinking, what if you put a glass on glass attachment on the opposite end of the balloon? You would have to plug it while filling.

    With a Hybrid, it’s easy since there’s a whip and there’s a separate pump for the whip. With a Classic or Digit, what I’ve done is use a 14mm to 10mm adapter. It works sort of. Vapour will spill out though, it’s tough to describe... Try it out with a 14mm to 10mm and let us know your opinion.

    It had to have happened gradually over time to the point I never really noticed it until it got this far. I believe S&B Oakland quoted me $150-200 for a new pump. That was a number of years ago so it may be different now.

    How much were you quoted for a new pump?

    Did that issue come on gradually or all of a sudden?

    ...I gave the whole thing a deep cleaning when all the screws rattled loose and I was able to get inside. I also checked the hoses connecting the pump to the heater, and even cleaned the screen on top of the heater to make sure it wasn't creating restriction there, but still no improvement. I'm...

    Have you checked the air filter as possible source of slow air flow??

    Mine takes a long time to fill a bag which seems to have really compromised the flavor; and a replacement pump costs as much as working units can be found for so it sits in the closet. IDK what to do with it lol.

    Thanks for that bit of information, you are 100% right! I checked the box like you said, born on 2016! Not bad.

    ...tires, around 10 to 20 years for beer cooler lines in a bar. They would probably be fine for many years though! I'm also assuming the pump employs some rubber parts inside, and replacing it would keep your bag fill times good and avoid sudden failure. I think the pump's rated at 15 liters of...

    Yep bought this unit back in 2008. Daily use i think keeps them running. I actually have a friend that has one that is a couple years older than mine. I have been through a couple rocker switches on the power button. Thats an easy fix. You say the air pipes should be changed after 15...

    ...that. In 2017 they told me they don't offer it for portables, so desktops must be different. Either way, the few bits that do tend to fail (air pump, switches, thermostat) are mostly available somewhere online. And if you didn't feel good about fitting the items safely I'm sure you could find...

    ...I find it helps to have a focused LED type lamp behind the unit so you know when it's done preheating what's inside and it's just starting to pump out vapor, before you put the balloon on. I will try to see how many bags I get at 192C or just over setting 6 from a full capsule. 0.16 in...
