Interested in trying this, have some cotton and rayon on order (to compare). Saw an interesting vid of someone using a 2cm x 1cm wad of rayon, to wipe a blob of concentrate off a probe, then fold it over, sandwiching the concentrate inside, making it easy to handle without getting concentrate on...

Thanks @HaggisHunter, really good info! And yeah, the rules on what you can procure and what you can't are sometimes coming out of the minds of children it seems! (uk at least).

Just on that thought, and apologies if someone's mentioned this and I missed it, but have you considered a mixture of ball types in the same heater? Some steel for induction, some ceramic or similar for thermal properties? Playing around should find a good proportion, though the size of each may...

I was most interested to hear as you filled in some definite gaps in my knowledge. I'm amateur too, couldn't do normal learning at school or do degree's etc, I think 'educationally subnormal' and 'special needs' were the terms bandied around at the time. (Sadly, being 'special needs', didn't...

I may be wrong, but the mouthpiece may well fit a 10mm glass socket - certainly those of the Tempest and Revolve (and others) do so and this looks similar size and shape, but PP or an owner of his fine wares would confirm (or deny).

I thought that likely too, enough to invest in one (not exactly pricey, so worth chancing, may be hjandy to have for later if I go back to revolve's metal sleeve!), but turned out it would need a little bit of a thin rasp or something to just widen that hole a little bit, not much. That...

Oh, I thought it was much more a continuous range of colours through the spectrum according to temperature reached. I partly also based this on what I see heating up the Ti head of the TA, and I see what looks like a spectrum of colour with a pale silver/light-blue colour at the top (hottest)...

I'd take with a pinch of salt if I were you. This may be what is supposed to be the case, but it's down to the manufacturer following processes correctly and including all stages. Every stage equates to loss of final product weight. e.g. with decarbing, even if it ws possible to do it with zero...

Just to say, if you do go the route of using Tempest stem to start with (makes sense financially) I'd advise getting something to insulate the metal from your fingers. My experience with the Revolve2 and TA3 showed there was a lot of heat dumped into the stem following one bowl extracted...

I think in the end that unless no vapour's appearing, or the weed's combusting, everything in between is down to personal taste, and getting to that point is all that matters. For instance I've noticed that there's a great deal about conduction and convection that's talked about almost...

Hey! Don't apologise to me! I'm new here too, and have driven some of the mods crazy doing it - I just completely don't realise until after,. then spend a desperate 5 mins tidying up in the hope of beating them to it! 🤣🤣🤣 (the mods are very patient, wasn't dissing them at all!) And I don't even...

Just so you know (and I'm terrible at doing it!) but you should join all your posts together if no-one else has messaged in between. The mods like to keep things tidy, part of the rules here - just so you're aware! 😊 You have to post them on a suitable 3rd party site, I've used...

https://ibb.co/dMMr2ys This is my blue Tempest. Had it about a month or so, maybe few weeks more? Used most days. Though I treat it fairly carefully. What isn't so clear from the picture is the slight discolouration where the blue part of the heater meets the steel induction sleeve (and air...

Ah! I think I may not have been so on the ball this time. Just tried weighing out a couple tests. One came to more than 0.1g, but because it was a particularly dense batch of blueberry! And maybe a little on the dry side, not terrible, but enough to make it a little denser. On trying something...

🤣🤣🤣 - I know what you mean! 🤣🤣🤣

Ah, you didn't see my post on how I do a heat soak. 5 minutes!!!! Bloody 'ell, I wouldn't expect to see sod all left after that! 🤣 Also, how you heat soak a bowl is going to be specific for the type of bowl and heater being used. They'll all behave differently. e.g. the Screwball has such a...

It was part guess work, plus what I could see and feel from adjusting it to full size. But my best reason for keeping it in there is to provide a small space between the screen and the bottom of the bowl, the part surrounding the hole leading to the stem. It's possible (I didn't pull the screen...

I have to admit that my (less experienced view) was most people seem to heat soak after filling the bowl! I've no idea which is meant to be better, or even if one of them is, and not just different ways with pros and cons of their own, not really put any thought into it to be honest. Flavour...

Well without actually filling and weighing I wouldn't like to dispute, and also the strain of weed and it's humidity will effect how much fits (not to mention how loose someone likes it, etc) but my impression was more like about 0.15 to 0.17-ish (depending on those previous factors). From the...

I may have misread, but from mine (TA3) there is a metal ring that the domed gauze sits on, and this ring slides smoothly down the bowl as you push on it (and the gauze of course) with the dowel. It fits tightly enough to just leave it at any height, or it can go down until it stops dead at it's...
