I just got extra parts when I got my original VapCaps. Due to laziness my planned cleaning method involved heating with a Bigshot torch until everything burned off.

I'v done this twice to my Onmi and once to my M with no ill effect. :nod:

Ha ha. I should have added. . . . I do this a lot too!!! Probably over 15 times by now!
(Can't believe I didn't mention this given my recent posts on the subject of cleaning and o-rings)

My biggest/only issue with the vapcap is KEEPING THE SCREENS IN THE SMALLEST BOWL POSITION! :worms:
(I'd explain further, but it would be such a big post in itself . I've been there previously on this thread. So I don't want anyone wasting their time typing advice re; screens and vapcaps. . please and thank you. .
But obviously if you are having issues on the topic you're welcome to ask me for advice on what to do IF you too find the whole issue a such pain! :tup:)

Anyway. . to help keep my screens in place for as long as possible I began my cleaning program . . .
- Decent ISO soak.
- Lightly lightly, gently gently, with the brush and ISO.
- Warm water ,rinse and dry.
THEN: about every 3-4 cleaning cycles I finish by blowtorching the whole bowl red hot! To get rid of the brown crap that I found eventually builds up behind the screen in the bowl due to my 'lightweight' cleaning program.

The first time, I heated the whole Bowl red hot at once. It burned the whole thing spotless, but ultimately I realised the screen didn't like this too much! Nor the next screen. It seemed to shrink and or as well degrade them, I can't quite remember. But it was a no no for screens staying in their place for longer.
So from here on I began heating the tip more gently so that just different areas began to glow red for a second or so. This still cleans everything but doesn't affect the screen at all it seems. . it does rainbow the Ti-tip a bit too. .

And to finish! My o-rings are all still fine :rofl:

Feel like I've been boasting about my o-rings for three pages now, starting a long way back and many moods ago in my day. I'll stop.



EDIT: Referred to Tip a few times when I definitely meant Bowl. I have amended the mistakes I hope. I don't want anyone thinking their o-rings will be fine if the WHOLE TIP is red hot!
:doh:
And I just remembered. .
I use SS screens and they just seem to shrink a little when the whole bowl is heated red hot???? The screen I remembered that degraded, and by that I mean disintegrated, was a well used Ti-screen I tried to heat red hot clean while out of the tip. . it broke ito about 6 pieces when I tried to put it back in the tip. So don't do that either.

I think I read the new dynavap plastic cases have a heat-proof o-ring in the bottom so you can throw them in hot.

In one of my last 3 orders, I saw the red o-ring at the bottom of the XL case, which I also ordered. I thought at the time it was to act as a buffer to protect what was enclosed, but can't remember what. So, is the purpose of the silicone ring to be able to drop a hot cap end in? If so, I guess I got this tube by mistake since I didn't order a vc. If it is for heat protection, I would like to see Dynavap sell a package of these. Does anyone know what size they are as I don't have the proper tools where I am right now to pry it out. How I miss my handy 6" long tweezers.

Yesterday ended up being cleaning day as I noticed 'honey' dripping from the mouthpiece on my Omnivong. There's something pretty cool about pushing a nugget through the condenser and getting all that extra goodness. I put a little ground material in a spent concentrate container and push the honey load on top. Pour a little more ground flower in and shake it a bit. I will pop that in to my Milaana at some point for some late night goodness. And I used PBW again to great results on the condenser, mouhtpiece, and tip.

We're in that season between seasons here in New England.

Here's some music to celebrate:

Somebody has any idea to substitute degummed hemp fiber for filtration in the cap?

When purchasing my "starter kit" there was no hemp fiber in the store so I just left it out from the basket.
I tried now a slice of a cigarette filter but the material became hard so I dont think it is healthy to put it there, also I felt it when inhaling the vape. This was just to substitute the hemp fiber which I dpnt have.

The vapcap M is fantastic, I had the opportunity to test a bit more with it and I really like it.
Best portable vape for me for sure.

The slice of the cigarette filter worked great for a while, even a draw was a bit restricted because of it what increased the amount of visible vapor so I'd like to find something that could serve me for this reason. :)

Any idea?

Any organic, non bleached/peroxided cotton ball or muji cotton will work. and wont cause any harm, just need to play around to find the correct thickness
