Your last sentence may apply for Quartz if you like using it that way, but SiC is so hard there 's not much sense in trying to season it. Carbon buildup is minimal and only the result of extract impurities (which scrape right off easily, unlike my experience with quartz). I suppose you could let a carbon layer build up in the SiC dish, but I think that would defeat the best function of the material.
The things we do in the name of science...I took an extra dab this morning just so I could taste the difference haha
Just before I got the Sic insert Josh at CCA/710 told me I should season it so it would taste better. As well as a few fellow FC mates all had the same opinion that either Quartz or Sic should be seasoned. I've tried taking dabs with a new Quartz banger without the benefit of seasoning and it had a really wierd taste.
Is it the standard 20mm coil from Dnail or some flat style coil? Please bare with my ignorance
It was 20mm dnail regular coil. I'll take a picture of it and post it later today. Never tried a flat coil.
Long time lurker but this is my first post to the forum. Just got my 20mm Liger and Quartz insert and so far i'm loving it! The flavor with the quartz really is superb compared to titanium and it just makes for a way cleaner, smoother hit that something you would get from a prior gen nail.
Ive been running it with my Auber 200 controller and 20mm coil at around 760-800(although the quartz is far lower of a temp) and I've found it also leaves much less of a vapor trail than my old Titen nail.
Lastly I also love how the design of the nail keeps the coil away from my face! Without a drop down my old nail constantly sat 2 away inches from my face when taking a dab, but with the banger design of the Liger I no longer have to worry about what could of been quite the painful accident.
Altogether Im loving it so far, may have to hit up my boy @Riceandbeans and do a comparison of it side by side a Quartz or Sic Halo for the Next Gen Thread.
That was me, thanks!On the next gen thread someone was asking about how big the inserts were compared to coins so they had a reference. Well the 20mm OD is about the size of a US dime and larger than a standard banger surface. While the 16mm version is around the same size or maybe slightly smaller than a standard banger.
Nice! I like your banger hanger. Do you have the storm cell cap? Either way Make sure you are capping it for the best experience. You should be able to go a good bit lower temp and play with the flavors if you are capping it. I do like to crank mine up to 750 (always lower with SiC) occasionally and just take a fat rip though! You should be able to get good hits around 700-710 when capping depending on the size of your dabs. I go 660-670 for my SiC insert.
If you ever get the urge to make another purchase I highly suggest the SiC insert and cap from CCA. Coupon code in my signature will get you 10% off on it all. Good to have you on FC!
