Which bowl are you guys using? Which torch are you using? It's most likely user error or your just not yet familiar with it yet.

Using the full bowl, and using honest single and triple flame torches. I'm sure a better torch would work better, but I'm not going to invest more if I just personally don't end up liking it. The single seemed a bit too slow on the heat up and the triple seemed too fast (combust)

Try the triple and hold it further away so the tip of the blue flame barely touches the oven . Heat it directly in the middle and see how you like it. Maybe pick up some cheap CBD flower online or at a local shop just to practice on. I have the blazer firefox and its a great fit. I can't see any vape on the market that can touch this thing once you learn to dial it in. Have patience. You will love it once you get the hang of it.
Thank you, will try that.

Thank you, Seriously 
Have lurked reading tips and tricks from the early birds allowing me to have three (3) successful initial sessions.
Two sessions using the full bowl and one with the half (Alternating is where it’s at lol). Heated the lowest oven ring using a Vapman single torch for ~ 40-45 second till the first click. Quit heating and then another click happens by the time I start pulling.
First time with full oven I got two cycles. Ya know, being cautious. Second session (3rd all together) with full oven I heated just a tad past the first click and was one and done. Both sessions had coffee leftovers. One and done with the 1/2 oven too.
Glad to be in on this and I’m sure as more and more have in their hands further positive 1st time user results will appear.

Had my first session using the half bowl. Heated it on the bottom oven ring and got a really tasty and large hit. Checked the avb and still saw plenty of green flower. So I let the vape cool down on the magnet for 3 minutes or so before going back outside for another heat cycle. This time I heated at the thermal battery and kept the vape slightly further back so that the tip of the inner flame was maybe 1/4 inch or so away from the actual metal. Got a pretty decent sized cleanup hit from this but flavor was obviously not the same lol. I checked the avb and it was a light brown I'd say with some small bits of green. I did this all with a dry j-hook btw and at half-open airflow. Overall, Pretty damn good vapor from that small amount of flower. Also, the case has worked great so far, only thing that got me is the cap wanting to roll off my table lol.
The high itself is still happening as I type this lol. I usually session my vapcap and Enano for DDs (V3 Pro on occassion). So I will take a similiar amount of flower to the half chamber Anvil and split it into 3-5 hits or so, in this case I vaped it in 2 hits lol (mainly in first though). The signature itself is unique to what I usually do in that I felt completely sober after vaping the Anvil, I was feeling underwhelmed and was disappointed. Then after 5 minutes or so it just started shooting me up rapidly lol. The onset is just so unique comparatively to my usual vaping style of using small amounts for a 5-10 minute session basically. The high itself made me compelled to write this I guess lol. I planned on watching some Wilfred but here I am writing instead. I'll say that it feels more convection leaning in taste and effects for me. I don't know if I'd have enough awareness to be able to tell if high is more of a hybrid or convection tbh. But I can say that I feel a high more similar to my Enano than my Vapcap. I have been using the same sativa strain for the last week between my other vapes and using that same strain tonight has given me a high closer to my convection vapes. Now the flaw in this though is my roast was a tad lighter in this vape than my Enano and Vapcap, so maybe that is also part of the reason for the current high I'm feeling.
That's really all I can say for now, I probably have to use this more over time to give a more detailed review of the vape in general.
I debated on waiting to write something afterwords but I plan on vaping again in an hour or 2 and may report on that experience too. After that, I'll maybe report back a few weeks later when I'm less of a noob lol.
Also, I came here to ask for suggestions on getting a darker roast. I am going to try to go darker on my next session but am unsure of what I should adjust. I'm using the smallest flame on my eagle torch lighter and it's pretty large imo lol. So I'm thinking most likely I shouldn't be bringing up the flame size (but obviously would be willing to adjust it if need be). I am partly basing this off the videos I've seen as well. So instead, maybe I could move my inner flame closer or further away from the metal? Any suggestions on how to adjust heat maybe on that or what I should try to get a darker roast? Not saying mine was necessarily light because it was mostly a light brown but I would like to get it closer to that riding the line dark brown lol. I'm also willing to pull out a stop watch and start using time specifically to figure things out, but I thought I'd ask for suggestions outside of aiming for timing for now just to see if I can find out a good technique without using a stop watch. I'd love to say that I want to explore this because of my ingenuity, but honestly my laziness is leading the charge here lol. Overall, really liking this first experience with it, but also am wanting to get some more practice in to help refine my technique and well.... to get high lol.
Update, did 2nd bowl with airflow half open and put lighter on the thermal battery and hit it twice like earlier. Was left with avb that was light brown or maybe a bit darker. Avb was more even than my first bowl and I didn't have specs of green/yellow. The high hit hard and fast this second time around. I think my first heatup was different this time in the sense that I cleared the whole heat-up cycle in one hit vs two hits like earlier. I still want to darken the avb more but the effects are really solid with this thing.

So the Sunday Post said nothing of last weeks drop happening or not, only the special sale. Also was hopping for an update on the Founders new parts that I hope will be available soon. And hopefully this week's drop will happen in the time frame said. Oh and also read that now the production can't keep up with the list and I thought he said previously that they would be able to clear the list. Good luck all! Maybe Thursday! Just a little disappointed. But still have my fingers crossed.

After all, its a great place to be in right now for Vestratto. A line for orders they can't fill. Does not happen often.
They will come.....

Note: as far as folks telling how to run the business. I own one and every one thinks they can run your business better. Just get used to it. They are not in your shoes.

My Anvil arrived on Friday and I've been using it consistently since.
The learning curve is minimal, using a Thunderbird twin jet insert for my Zippo I aim for 1/4" away from the inner blue jet to the Anvil itself and that takes about 40 seconds to click.
Typically extracting in one major pull and a minor follow up.
This thing is rapidly replacing my Tinymight as my Daily Driver.
Incredible.

For people with green abv issues I’ve been having great success with a slighter larger crème brûlée torch vs the singles, it’s way smaller then a blazer big buddy but still quite a bit more powerful then the honest single flame. Whiff is right quicker click = darker generally, Torching the battery click in 25-35 seconds and it will kill the bowl nicely in one round or if there’s a bit of hash in the mix it’s oily enough to handle two full cycles which is killer. Half bowl with like 0.04 of a kief/hash mix and two cycles of huge hits it’s pretty wild efficiency. This is quickly becoming my favorite hash vape now too damn. This legit has me considering selling off a lot of my collection.

yup, does not fit the Anvil properly, but you could hang if half off if you wish. TBH just get the storage tube and the mag from the tube plug will work fine imo.Was wondering if anyone has both the Anvil and the D-Cupper from Grinders for life?
Was just wondering if it would work?
D-Capper - Brilliant Cut Grinders
The D-Capper Debowler is the world’s first debowler designed specifically for the Dynavap vaporizer. The integrated D-Capper makes hot cap removal quick, safe, and easy. Debowl and start your next bowl sooner.grindersforlife.com
dude, i know how you feel, the tinymight is no joke, it was my daily driver until the anvil showed up!

My Anvil and assorted accessories are ‘out for delivery’. I’ve got several different lighters to try, so I’m covered there.
Are y’all giving yours an ISO bath before first use? It’s pretty standard for me to do this with metal vapes.
And as it relates to Vestratto business practices; I couldn’t be happier. I received an email last Sunday saying I’d get my waitlist link on Monday at noon. I did, I made the purchases at about 12:30 that day with one small hiccup due to my bank. And in one week plus a couple of hours I’ll be in possession of what I expect to be a fabulous vaporizer for my nighttime meds.
Cheers fuckers.

Same with mine...I just dropped it in...it does not seem to lock in place...just floats in there I believe...as for airflow...good video on Youtube under Vestratto channel...

Check out @Whiff videos on YouTube. He’s got those subjects and others covered well.anyone know which way round the twisty bit goes in I guess the stem? mine fell out! Seems this device is more hype than anything! No instructions/manual etc. reverse engineering how to open the airflow etc here
I am always surprised when I get stuff without instructions, but my iPhone and MacBook Pro came with virtually no written instructions either. So…It’s the way of the 21st century. And not a knock on the device itself.

Clean it @beyond6strings , not that’s its incredibly dirty but does have that titanium smell? Plus it gives you a chance to get to know it better

I've been using this single flame Honest torch and really digging it.
The flame seems perfect, it's somewhere between a culinary torch and a regular single flame torch. Holds a good amount of fuel (6-10) chambers, no flame lock but the switch is like butter.

Absolutely!
My TM has been my DD for a very long time now...it replaced my DaVinci IQ2...which replaced my Zeus ARC GT...which replaced my POTV One...which replaced my Utilian 722.
I don't see anything replacing my Anvil any time soon.
Ya i was looking at that one and John has the dual flame version which we enjoyed using also

I have half a dozen of the Honest single flame I use for Dynavaps. Sells for between 5-10 bucks...always dependable...large see thru tank...nice narrow pointed flame...
POTV used to see them under Sticky Brick accessories... Sticky Brick website sells them...you can find multi packs of these on Ebay and have seen them as low as $3.00....
Same one Whiff had on his User introduction live stream

Whoever did the graphic for how the clicker works on the new Sunday post needs to make a card of a basic assembly and adjustment breakdown like the dynas come with, whiff you’ve been mad helpful but the website at minimum needs a quick page for people to get these answers, it’s weird at this point that there isn’t a main page on the vestratto website with this. At the least it would save whiff some time on this thread lol
Cheers man will have a peek! Yeah sometimes it seems to spin as ya inhale lol
Thanks will hit that up too later!
Yeah it's getting that way but I find most those devices have a quickstart wizard or guide of some sort then a link to download full manual. Also they are pretty standard. Not having taken one of these apart or seen one assembled/disassembled it's a task to reverse engineer. I see many mentions of the variable airflow in their posts and website but no instructions or hints how lol
I agree! The website seems 100% sales and marketing currently. No support. Just buy my stuff kinda vibes
The airflow adjustment seems odd to me as ya can end up unscrewing the unit to close the airflow

Oh nice, good to hear! I just ordered the duel flame version and the Honest 503 that's like a FireFox knock-off from Fasttech.
