Good site. Enjoyed the visit!

I was actually using a cut-off Slurpee straw. It's not the sturdiest, but you can pack pretty well if you are patient.

OK. Will do, vineetvel. I sure appreciate your help through all of this. You've been really reliable. I'll let you know what happens. In the meantime, it's LB or nothing!

Purchased 22 June, but not received for 10 days. Have already contacted the seller who did not write back. Have also contacted Goboof, who told me to contact Vapeworld for a warranty. When they found out I got it at eBay, they didn't want to give we a warranty. Goboof also wanted me to send it...

Unfortunately, I got this on eBay, meaning I'll probably have to eat the $175 I paid for it. Should have paid full price from Goboof or Vapeworld. No warranty, and since I don't have the original packaging, no refund from eBay.

This was vaped on medium, one 6-second soft draw followed by two four-second softer draws. Three draws in six minutes, and then the burn.

OK, I saved the photos to my Imgur account, but cannot get them from there to here. I clicked on the message board option, which indicated that the photos were copied. But where?

OK, I have three photos for you guys, but the "images" icon tells me I need a URL? I'm from last century. I have a PC running Windows 7. So the pictures are in limbo till I learn how to apply an external URL to an internal photo. Apologies for the "technical difficulties."

Hello again, vineetvel -- I ground the herb with a Space Case & then with the MFLB grinder. I'm doing slow draws, like MFLB, only shorter. Last night I just used the low setting, and the unit became hot in my hand after three hits. And after four hits, the 1/2-bowl was burnt. I'll vape another...

I would say that I have adequate bud (og sour) that is 5 months old. I think I was sold the back end of stuff I got in March. Original stuff was above average, but second time around is drier. (Sucker punched.) I thought of that problem, too. But in a glass pipe, you can't tell that much...

Hi, vineetvel -- Yes, starting on low with 5-6 second draw. Then moving to medium for maybe three softer pulls, and it's done! Burnt. Last night, I just took two hits, turned it off, and left it there. I'm going to go re-charge it and see if getting a "break" or something will make it work better.

OK, guys. I'm thinking this unit might be defective. I already know that I'm defective, but y'all have given me enough things to try that I feel like I should be able to overcome my innate inabilities. No matter what, I am only getting 4 - 6 hits before my herbs get crispy brown. Maybe I should...

OK. That's easy enough. I think even I can make one! Now you've got me wondering about using the isopropyl alcohol for cleaning. I am chemically-sensitive; what was I thinking? I cleans really well, and it's cheap. I always assumed that the toxic part evaporated; I rinse my stuff out in it, and...

PS: spamspamspam -- I'm OCD about keeping my smoking paraphernalia clean, and the Alfa is the easiest of all! I clean it after each use. Takes about 2 minutes total. I put both screen and the mouthpiece in a jigger & pour a little alcohol over it. Then I dip a pipe cleaner into the bottle of...

merckx -- Did you make that cork packing tool yourself, or is it something I can buy? I have some wine corks around here, but I think they'd be too big to pare down. vineetvel -- I did better with it last night. I think I have been leaving the material a little too loose, and that might be why...

Thanks, spamspamspam. I think I'll give that a try. I did experiment with the "sandwich" screens last night, and I still ended up totally burning a 3/4-full , lightly tamped bowl with only 4 draws. I used the medium setting, and the draws were about 5 seconds long, as vineetvel suggested. Still...

I am such a dimwit that when I heard about using two screens, I went to Planet K & got some screens, one of which I inserted on the other end of the unit by the mouthpiece. Now I know what to do! Thank you guys for giving me the inside skinny on proper procedure. It helps to know just how to use...

Thanks, Yoosh. I haven't been tamping it down, so that might make all the difference. Maybe I won't have to keep refilling it all the time to achieve the "desired effect." I'm also glad to know I don't have to fill the bowl, because I'm used to needing only a smallish amount with the MFLB. I...

I've been using my Alfa for a couple of weeks, so I must still have a lot to learn. I fill it up loosely, try to do short, soft, draws, and yet I can only get six hits off of it before the weed totally burns up. I'm using the medium heat selection. Plus, I'm not getting high! It's the same weed...
