    Thanks Nicola, but I actually just had a breakthrough! I KNEW there was something fundamentally wrong with what I was doing, just was not getting the results that other people described. Now folks, I have to beg forgiveness here because I am 100% positive that someone, somewhere on this...

    Volcano

    Ok folks, I now have proof that I’m messing up something with the volcano. I’m running herb/kief/herb dosing capsules, but the herb on top stays pretty green, even at 446 degrees with a preheat. When I use the same dosing capsule setup in the mighty, at 410 degrees, everything comes out dark...

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    Anyone looking for a case for the mighty? I accidentally discovered a great cheap one! It’s not smell proof, but it will definitely protect the mighty from bumps. It’s technically a pencil case, but it fits perfectly! Got it on Amazon for $9...

    Oh, is anyone else having a vapor leaking issue with the easy valve bags that are replaceable? Every time I inflate it there’s a little stream the vapor that I can see coming out the edges that doesn’t happen with the non- reusable easy valve bags

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    @Ratchett I want to use my mighty with my water pipe, and it looks like you have two options - One that replaces the cooling unit and one that fits on the mouthpiece. Are there pros or cons to one or the other? I’ve purchased some of your pieces before and was very impressed! Anyone else have...

    Yes yes and yes. To everything you said. If I could never take a narcotic again, it would make me the happiest person ever! I have gotten all the nasty side effects, especially the constipation. And I was concerned about Ryan as well, but I’m a new member and didn’t want to overstep...

    @Baron23 Out of curiosity, as I respect your opinions, why do you use only the highest temperature instead of starting lower and stepping up the temperature that other people discuss? Oh, and I tried cleaning out the capsule and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. It is...

    It worked great! I just realized you gave me the same advice on the mighty as well, it worked great! Thanks again!

    Yes, super helpful, because I was doing the opposite, putting more herb on the bottom because I was scared of the concentrate leaking through. Switched it around per your advice and got much better vapor, thank you for being so specific!

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    Hi everyone, I’ve been on FC a few weeks on the Volcano board, and I just got my mighty and used it the first time today...I’m seriously considering burning my pax3 in effigy. What a difference! A portable vape that doesn’t leave me with burnt fingers and lips? It’s a miracle! So what are your...

    Oh this is a game changer. I think I also wasn’t using enough concentrate, was a little scared of going overboard since I really don’t have any experience with concentrates. But then I realized keif is kind of like a concentrate, I think, and I put .06g of it with every .2g flower I use. But I...

    Is there any difference between doing concentrates in the volcano and dabbing? I’m a little scared of dabbing, but I’m finding I need both flower and concentrate at the same time for adequate pain control. The flower helps with the spasms, and the concentrate with the rest of the pain. But...

    The reason I decided on the obsidian over the magma is for just the issues you mentioned-I didn’t feel comfortable washing plastic with ISO, etc. And someone posted a video review on here, I’ll see if I can find it, where it shows how much junk the obsidian catches in that second chamber that...

    @Vitolo do you have a wish list of things you need or common things that you always need for donations?

    Yeah, it is super varied amongst people I think. I am using pot for serious pain, but not by itself. It is in addition to narcotics, muscle relaxers, and other medications. I also regularly get pain relieving procedures, such as radio frequency ablation’s of the facets in my spine. That is...

    Sorry about that, you said you ran the fan a bit before putting the chamber on. I didn’t do that. And then I thought you meant that you put the chamber with the bag already on it onto the volcano (after you ran the fan for a few seconds). I put the chamber without the bag on it on the volcano...

    Actually, it depends on what the pain is from. I suffer from severe muscle spasticity, like getting a Charlie horse. But imagine Charlie horses in many muscles at once, for hours and days and weeks at a time. Mine happen mostly in my back, and as anyone who’s ever thrown out their back can...

    Per your advice, I reduced my flower by a third to .2 g. I then added a little concentrate and the combination seems to do well for me without being too harsh. I can always get to the second bag now. Thanks for beating us over the head with it! Some of us have really thick skulls:goon: So, I...

    My heart hurts for your friend, nobody wins in that situation. Like you said, her other friends are trying to be there for her, not realizing that they’re making her problems worse. And unfortunately, this is the exact situation that has given opioids a bad name now, such that people who are in...

    Sadly this isn’t true, many people have become accidentally addicted by following their prescribing doctor‘s instructions regarding the narcotics. They were just so over-prescribed for so long based on the lies, ahem, I mean marketing strategy :rolleyes: of the pharmaceutical companies. And a...
