    will round cubic zirconia gems, like 6mm, work a cooling heat absorber in glass vape stems or a heat accumulators balls in ball vapes?

    Knowing what I like and how to get it out of my ballers, I use ruby balls. I tried boro, ss, zirc, quartz, etc. but always returned to rubies. Even my Zirconia Phase3, ZX baller uses rubies. In the end, it's really about your preferences, so give them all a try.

    Best desktops for flavor chasers

    My favorite vape for taste is the Phase3 ZX with their zircon bowl. Clean, reproducible results, and when paired with a decent PID it can produce tasty one hitters all day long.

    How many hits for full extraction.

    Currently, going solo with a baller, I am usually looking for one or three hits from a .05 g bowl cooked somewhere between 425 f to 435 f.

    How much cannabis do we vape in a day.

    Different vapes, different dose sizes. I was using a Cloud Connoisseur Omega for a few weeks, and my daily dose crept up to .3 g because with my Omega, that was where the fun was. Feeling a little overloaded, I switched to a Phase3, ZX and in a few days I was back to my usual .1 g daily intake...

    best tasting dry herb vaporisers according to you?

    Best tasting, at the moment, a Phase3 ZX. Clean, efficient and there is no shortage of information available online, or on this forum.

    Does anyone have a window on shipping of the tiered ZX bowl? It feels like I am waiting for Christmas to start in September, which is sad.

    What is the better PID?

    I have man fingers and find the crowded buttons on most PIDs annoying. Enough so that I purchased a knob controlled Auber RDK-350B. Function wise it's okay, and the online documentation is very useful.

    Does it make sense to micro dose through water?

    From time to time, water gets used, if I have the flu, day after a pot party, dialing in a new piece of gear etc. Currently, my daily consumption is two .04 g bowls a day vaped between 385 f and 435 f, usually for three hits. The most used glass piece is a 2" globe (50 ml lab flask) used dry...

    Looking for some consensus about sneakypete/vapenorth glass pieces

    I have a Sneaky Pete Cube and Sub and found them serviceable. Their joints are smooth and bubble free. They seal well with almost all of my adapters, stems, and whips. They aren't perfect, the feet on the Sub are a bit uneven and the Cube has a couple of waves in its body. Neither of the...

    Whip diameter size?

    Me too, I use a 7/16” OD with 1/16” wall thickness silicone whip, which works well for less restrictive whips. If one makes an angular cut at the end of the whip, it can be pressed fitted into a 14 mm female socket without an adapter, and it will still seal well with less restriction. Bonuses...

    Zeal, Ω, and Epitome

    A user comment on using Omega with a glass bowl at 390 f to 470 f on a small 50 ml globe with .04 g load provides two to three hits. At the lower temperature range I am using the glass dry and at the upper end I add some water.

    Whip diameter size?

    One choice is a 7/16" OD silicone tubing with a 1/16" wall thickness, which has enough stretch and compression to fit over a 14 mm male adapter and into a 14 mm female coupling. For an 18 mm male adapter, the same size tubing will nest into the adapter. All that said, there is a downside: the...

    Does it make sense to micro dose through water?

    I just finished a .040 g. load through a wet 50 ml globe using a Cloud Connoisseur ball vape running at 470 f. If I dump the water then I drop the temperature by around a 100 f and that's about all I need to adjust. I usually try to adjust my sessions to work on a two or three hit model...

    How many hits for full extraction.

    If I had to put a number on it, three. One hit for taste, a cloud hit and a final cleanup hit. However, there is always a chance of another hit or two thrown in, depending on what is going on with the hit. This is based on using a small load baller (.035 g to .111 g) heated to between 370 f to...
