Milaana. Lana. LANA. LANAAAA! (TM2/TP80/BAK/FW9)
I just got one, my first unregulated vape. What's a good technique for starting out? I usually choose flavor over super roasted
Use a short pretty plain stem for full mouth feedback if you can to get started, ideally rimless basket screen near the edge, good 19/22 fit stem etc a couple spikes can be okay if you need something instead of plain (honestly I'm not even sure how well I could vape these days that way although I did try not too long ago anyway) then you can get a sense with a full battery how fast it heats up and how it will decline as the battery fades, a really nice way to stir and fully extract a bowl without overcooking a spot and getting the most flavor, is to dump it out on a surface and then suck it up like a straw in reverse so the more cooked part is in the bottom of the basket screen now... Another really nice thing to do, as you are extracting taking hits and the herb is getting a little darker shrinking, pack a little extra greens on top sucking them up like a straw still too, to finish off the bowl with a nice even extraction and better flavor at the end! I would also recommend a pretty consistent medium fine grind if possible... Since the two is tuned a little cooler you should be able to hold the button for the duration of your hits, a little longer at first when cold start to get going with a preheat, and inhaling after you let go of the button always to fully clear heat and vapor... This should allow for efficient use with the battery, however back-to-back hits with minimal pause also helps to use that retained heat for faster heat up etc. If it is running on the hotter side and you want to add without scorching risk and more control, you can try pulsing the button as that is the meaning of the word Milaana originally, on and off the trigger feathering, as I mentioned the two tended to run a little cooler so that is more true in different models like the three typically... There is a lot you can read in the threads, but the best way to learn technique is just to get into it yourself with a lot of experiment and using only it instead of any other vapes etc. Good luck and enjoy!
