    How to make an ABV cane sugar simple syrup?

    @Lo & @Tuck - Thanks for the additional observations and suggestions; good of you to be so helpful. After reading thru the related threads here and elsewhere, I find different info re the taste. On one hand, there is broad recognition that alcohol tinctures taste awful. On the other hand...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Fair point. That said, small businesses like Arizer almost always farm out this work, and are often unaware of this problem. I was just trying to give'em a break. :) As usual, my response was overkill.

    How to make an ABV cane sugar simple syrup?

    @Lo & @herbgirl - Thx for such quick replies - and from such vaunted contributors, no less! Now that I know what Everclear is (I told you I was dumb as a stump about this stuff :lol: ), I've been perusing the threads re tinctures and dragons (or is that a video game?) and can see I have a...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    I thought it might be this or similar. The problem you are encountering is most likely because you are not using Internet Explorer. That can be due to how the server sees the browser, how the page is written, or if the page uses an ActiveX object. The 2nd and 3rd causes usually indicate old...

    How to make an ABV cane sugar simple syrup?

    I'm almost embarrassed to be asking a question here, given how very far ahead of me all of you chefs are. But I've come up empty using Search and I know so little about this that I couldn't begin to evaluate anything google returns. And while my wife is a fantastic cook she has zero experience...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Is the unit under warranty? If it is, I would not open it, but rather contact Arizer. Actually, even if no longer under warranty, still advisable to get their input. That said . . . IIRC on this thread there are pics of the unit disassembled. There is a grill under the base for the air...

    @chucku - I sure do like that serious 2nd line in your sig. Ah yes, the orange . . .

    New to vaping, concerned about anxiety

    @stoneface, The above posts seem to pretty much cover all the bases. Just to add a bit more based on personal experience (mine and others) with Mary and more than a few other psychoactive substances (I'm an old Frisco head; since you're from the East Bay you probably know what I mean). It...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Welcome! The closest measurement I could get is .72 inches or 23/32's, which is essentially 18mm. Stainless steel, fine grain mesh. I strongly recommend just buying a replacement package from Arizer, Amazon, your retailer - whomever you're buying the Q from. These screens last a very long...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    @aab1, I think your conclusions are essentially sound; however, let me add some additional clarification re the digital readout based upon posts way back here plus communication I've had directly with Arizer re the Q: The basic challenge of course is for the manufacturer to report the...

    Vaporfection - the AquaVape Inline Vapor Cooler

    I use the AV with my Extreme-Q whip in exactly the same way it is used with the Vaporfection. Or for that matter, other whips as well - the AV just replaces whatever mouthpiece is attached to the tubing. The only requirement is that the AV uses 5/16" ID tubing as does the Vaporfection (and...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    While I can't provide a 100% guarantee, I strongly suspect that it's OK to order from the Arizer site. The "certificate doesn't match" warning usually occurs when the web site you are on is different than that specified on the certificate. While this can indicate a "man in the middle" or "site...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    I use an AV, both with the whip and the bag, and btw it's ~6" x 1.5". With the bag I fashioned an extension onto an elbow, i.e., a short piece of tubing on the elbow and attached to it a whip mouthpiece acting as a nipple. I also put a short piece of tubing onto the intake joint/mouthpiece...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Both. My Q's bowl has a nice clean fit to the element's glass female. After reading your post, I tried to wiggle it and yes, there is an extremely slight "wiggle" possible. If anything, I expect this is intentional. The way to remove the bowl esp when hot (since the glass will have...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Your message gave me a good chuckle. :lol: So apparently the the culprit is your own hearing! I honestly can believe that: My wife has "ears like a bat", as she puts it. And it's true. Long before my hearing degraded (too many nights at the Fillmore, but that's before your time), she would...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Maybe this is of help? https://www.vaporstore.com/herb-temperature-vaporize.php That doesn't sound right. Something in the fan? Or a fan bearing? I suggest contacting Arizer.

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    As long as the components are not inferior, I doubt it really makes much difference. Generally with the materials with which this device is made, the only issues would come from very high heat for a sustained period of time. There is expansion/contraction in the element & glass cover, but...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    Since your question fundamentally deals with the physics and electronics of the machine, you can probably only get an authoritative answer directly from Arizer. It may be of note that since the unit is designed for aromatherapy as well, it should be designed for extended use at low/moderate...

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    @geddylee - Again, thx for the info. I purchased the unit at the link you provided. Won't have a chance to use it for a while, but checking it out I did notice a few things. I'd be interested in any comments you have on the following: On the positive side (and diffs from the cyclone), the...
