E-Nano from Epickai

[Eyedunno]

Yeah, I smoked a tiny bit of herb the other day just for shits. It was pretty gross. Oh, and it occurs to me that I'm on week 4 with the Nano as of yesterday. In that time I've combusted twice, I think (the other time was right at the beginning), used the Crafty twice, and used the Plenty once. I have used the Nano every single day.

Give me your Crafty!
I'm happy the Nano is fulfilling your vaping needs! She sure has a way of making everyone happy, haha.

I am greatly tempted to try to sell my Crafty (I'm pretty sure it's still under 5 hours, seriously), but I want to at least have the option of a portable vape while I'm waiting on another portable that suits me better. I do love the Crafty though--usage is no-nonsense (honestly, for me the default heat setting with no software changes works fine, to the point where boost mode does nothing for me), vapor quality is high, and efficiency is okay; I just don't want to wear it out. :/

My nano arrived today, ordered 31st so 7 days total to get to the UK, it actually got here much quicker than I expected in the end :-)

Enjoying some nice low-temps while I try to get over this cold. The vapor is working as a nice expectorant helping me cough everything out...without the vape I just get a dry cough but I feel the pressure of what should be coming out of my lungs. Amazing vaping can help with that.

@AegonT Congrats! and welcome!

EDIT to prevent double posting:
So after always preferring a slightly higher temp and a faster draw (not FAST fast...just faster) to maintain it, it seems like I get nearly the same top layer browning, but a better deep extraction, with using a lower temp and a slower draw rate(through a bubbler). With a faster draw, it seems because the temp is higher, you are able to get vapor very quickly, and very thick, off the top layer of bud. But it seems that that layer will start browning before the bottom layers of bud have time to start extracting, meaning the initial vapor burst will start thinning quicker, leaving you with vapor coming into the bubbler slower than it goes out (into your lungs). With a lower temp, the temp seems more stable because less air is being pulled through at once, and it gives the bottom layers more time to get heated.
I recall @CarolKing preferring slow draws, anyone else?

 

[Eyedunno]

I find myself preferring slow draws at a lower temperature on dry stems, but faster draws at a slightly higher temperature with water. Stirring is fine for me if there is any unevenness, and toward the end I pulverize my material with the nano tool or with a dab tool for a thin hit or two of additional extraction. If you do vape at a low temperature through water though, that first hit tastes really great, though the vapor's naturally not as dense as if you go up a notch.

nowadays i like to use my e-nano with a bubbler dry (without water)... nice big clouds and flavor...
by the way did I mention how much I like my nano!

the only draw back of this vape is I am less often leaving my home... because my nano is not protable...

 

[CarolKing]

I prefer to stir my cannabis about half way through my 10 min session. I load just enough so the heater doesn't scorch my product. A temp setting around 6 - 6.5 slow and steady draws and a medium grind. The outer area of my cannabis is always darker so a good stir is advisable it you are using this as a session unit.
That's what's so great about this vaporizer, it can be used as a session unit or a one or two hitter.

Went shopping this morning to a cannabis market with many farmers selling their fall harvest. I found a wonderful selection. I am using some kosher kush that's amazing in the Enano. This is one I will save for night time. I had many projects planned but they will have to wait for later. A hard hitter.

Won't go into the backstory, but the nano, due to no fault of its won, seems for the time being to have fallen from it's unchallenged position as the go to; the number one. I'm working hard on getting it back there into that prestigious position. Might take a little bit of luck. Some smarts would be useful too but that's probably not happening. In the meantime, I use it less, and when I use it, I have to remember to remind myself: 'very very effective vape; will kick your butt if allowed.'

 

[CalyxSmokr]

Do I need a finishing grinder with this vape? You can just put small nugs if I remember correctly, yes?
I have a kannister grinder - that should be adequate?

Yeah, it works well; nice cool hits even without water, and far more flavorful, but I do think using water offers some improvement, even if it's just through humidity, mist, and so on. Oh, and maybe losing some flavor makes the hit less overwhelming as well. I definitely want water for this rather unpleasant tasting (earthy) Banana OG I am trying to get rid of now.

Absolutely not. Hell, you don't need a grinder at all with this vape, when it comes down to it. You can just put small nugs in, take a couple wispy hits to dry out the material, then crush it against the sides of the tube with the included tool, at which point you can go to town with good vapor. I prefer to grind (though I personally use an SCS rather than a MFLB finishing grinder), but I've done it without, and it worked great.

So yeah, your grinder is fine.

I notice a lot of people don't grind very much with this vape, but I personally find that there is a noticeable increase of vapor density when using finely ground herb. I grind using an electric coffee grinder, pulsed so it isn't a powder, but definitely finer than most manual grinders. The finer consistency of the grind allows less fresh air to get mixed in with your vapor.

If you are using a direct draw, the thinner vapor might be more comfortable, but when using a waterpiece, where denser is usually preferable, I find the hits to be too wispy sometimes, when not ground finely.

 

[Pjake]

Just got home from a party and got some awesome UK Cheese. Nano can't heat up soon enough!!! I loves me some chez!!!

 

[BabyFacedFinster]

I use a space case also (I think). It's one of the smaller sizes. I twist once clockwise, then once counter-clockwise and then half-turn back to the starting point. This gives me the best grind. Most of the herb never makes it into the lower section of the grinder. Most of the trich's stay on the herb too.

So, are you going to tell us the name of this super colossal other vape that has knocked the nano off its pedestal? Who is this rath-scallion?

Hoping not combustion!!
Or meth ... Meth shouldn't replace Nancy either.
At least you don't combust meth.

 

[Sevenaito]

So I got my e nano a few days ago and all I can say is HOLY.FUCKING.SHIT. I've been combusting for over 20 years now so I assumed my tolerence was as high as it could possibly go. I was wrong. This thing absolutely knocked me on my ass like I was 15 again. Over the years I had forgot what it felt like to be high as I would smoke from the moment I woke up till I fell asleep so I guess I just felt "normal". Not only that but the amount of medicine consumed for me has been drastically cut in the last few days. I'm fairly dissapointed in myself for not discovering vaping earlier, as I likely would have saved 30-40k over my lifetime, but oh well, live and learn.

Not only that but in 2 days I have cut my cigarettes down from 15-20 a day to 6-7 without feeling much withdrawl, all thanks to the e nano. This along with not having smoked medicine in 2 days (strictly vaping) and I can already notice a huge improvement in my lungs. Also the tightness that was in my chest for years is quickly fading and that alone feels amazing.

My goals now will be to completely eliminate cigarettes from my life and to only vape my medicine. Likely gonna order a 2nd e nano now as a backup just incase. I also now need a portable and have narrowed my decision down to the hazev3, flowermate and the alfa. Though I'm sure with all the money I'll be saving soon I'll just end up getting all 3.

Ah. Wasn't trying to be deceptive, just not to bore with minutia. I don't think I'll be needing to look any further than the nano for my vaping needs and likes any time soon.

It's just a temporary stealth-related thing that's made my portable my best choice at the moment.

Some free time tonight is allowing me to let the nano know it's still the alpha.

I Grind all kine ways!

Back in the days of vinyl we used scissors however the new tech is fun stuff!

 

[CarolKing]

I also think about all the years I combusted and I could have been vaporizing. What a better relationship with cannabis, free from the lung irritation and such. A better cleaner, clear high.

I love all the different Enanos with the various wood patterns and colors. You are not just getting a great vaporizer put a piece of art too. I leave my units out, they don't look like something I would use with cannabis. They are so pretty I don't want to hide them away.

If anyone asks that doesn't use cannabis, it's an aroma therapy device.

I know a lot of people avoid electric coffee grinders, but i find that the consistent, very fine grind helps the nano produce super dense clouds. For vapes with more built-in air restriction, it might not work as well to have such a fine grind, but since the nano gives a very easy draw by itself, it can handle it without being uncomfortable.

If I was smoking, picking it apart by hand, or with scissors would be ok, and a two piece grinder would be more than enough, but I find vaping benefits from maximum surface area.

Definitely not combustion (or meth).

Just vaping some down home flower... like momma used to make

 

[whateverman]

A month into using the nano. Discoloration appeared on the top of the heater. That's normal, right?

Pretty sure mine is discolored too. Don't even notice. It's like your pet aging. Always a puppy.

 

[CarolKing]

It's natural for the wood to darken in color, that's what wood will do over time. My units were lighter in color originally.

After a while condition the wood with bees wax or coconut oil every few months.

 

[Shredly]

Hey does anyone know if Andy runs any sales on blackfriday or cyber money? Need to pick up some more spare gongs, power cord, and a new nano tray thing that look pretty awesome.
