Thanks for the responses, guys. Rick, I've been going through all sorts of different ways to load and puff a stem and I seem to be getting the hang of it. I'm able to get a pretty good buzz after 2 stems, its just the vapor quality I'm trying to get better. I only see visible vapor on the first hit and its pretty whispy. I'm sure once I get my technique down things will be better all around, but I was curious on how long it'll take for the wood to set and "break in". I've got it plugged directly into the wall and there's 2 socks hugging it too. The AVB is darker than it was, but its still on the light side with some green in it. I've only had Moaning Myrtle for 30 hours or so, so she's still in her infancy. I've ground my herb pretty fine.
Also, the stems get a bit warm for my liking. Will the tooty help with this?
Special shout to Vito for the puff technique. Works like a champ. I was doing some long, deep draws and it just wasn't working. Now I'm getting visible vapor clouds for at least 3-4 hits. And it doesn't heat up the stem as much and cause discomfort. I think a tooty with a carb will still be a good investment, as well as a stem holder for the aroma flower. Anyway, thanks for all the responses everyone.
if i would have just stopped after the first few hits it wouldnt have been quite as dar.
