Keep it clean

Use a secondary "domed" screen on the top side. This increases airflow and reduces clogging of the top screen.

Buy larger diameter tubing that slips over the herb chamber stem. This also increases air flow.

The herbie bags are really bad and I would not recommend buying additional bags. You're far better off getting a volcano solid valve and either getting a delta 3D 14mm/18mm song or doing my squeeze valve mod. Please ask me if you need more info on bags.

Play with heat settings on the herbie. The temperature accuracy of the unit is by far the strongest attribute of the vape. Different strains require different heat settings for the best effects. Example would be green crack which requires high heat to get the sativa effects.

Herbalizers are amazing vapes that will not fail you providing years of service even with daily use.

Would you mind linking the dome screen? I definitely get clogging at the top screen from time to time.

Have you ever made a direct draw stem for the herbalizer? If not you should :)

Why yes I have....or rather I had @Oregonglassblower make a custom glass mouthpiece.
You can change glass height, type of bend, mouthpiece size/type etc.

This particular one sits at just the right height on my vape table :)
You can hit it like a "normal" mouthpiece OR turn on Herbie's fan assist for a turbocharged hit ;)

I take a normal pipe screen that is larger than the inner diameter of the herb chamber and bend it into a dome shape. This keeps the weed in the lower part of the chamber before it flares out. By doing this it keeps the weed from sticking to the top screen and also allows the air to flow evenly through the material. The results of the even flow is a more uniformly cooked bowl with less material being green on the top.

The screens can be found at most LHS and Tabacco specialists.

Yea I have to take some measurements to figure out what I want. Is it possible to make a piece that doesn't need the adapter to work and fits directly on the standard bowl?

Any tricks with using concentrates with this thing or does it just stay particularly whispy? And can I adjust the fan speed?

Blast concentrates at 445°F

You're not worried about the taste deteriorating with the heat since the concentrate has little to no plant material in it. You want to pump as much heat into it as you can to get it boiling. I use a bag with the fan for concentrates.

@VaPeD&CoNfUsEd - I'm too lazy to do all the mods. I just took out the stock mouthpiece and use the stock whip...love it. I swap my screens occasionally (top to bottom and vice versa) and blow it out on high to clean them. Concentrates are going to be low temp flavor savor wispy sessions. But they are effective! I like to sammich the stuff between two ss pads so nothing gets gunked up from leakage.

Do you soak your whip in ISO to clean it? Is it okay to do that?

@VaPeD&CoNfUsEd ,

removing the stock mouthpiece (the tip) helps the airflow. The whip ID is none too big to begin with and the mouthpiece tip ID is even smaller. Good idea if you are just going with stock pieces

Hey guys long time stalker of this site, registered an account recently. Bought a Herbie a couple years back based on this thread and it's still going strong. By far the best vape out there IMO.

One big thing I've noticed (and I think it was mentioned prior) is that the whip takes away a lot of the potency. Vaping a bag gets me way more lit than using the whip all things considered.

There's a Black Friday sale going and I was thinking of picking up the steam roller. Any thoughts on the steam roller?

Never had success putting new bags on Herbie green valves. I was just going to buy some more to have them around but they so damn expensive. Was hoping for a black friday discount on bags

Before i go ahead and spend $80 plus shipping on 8 bags figured id ask if any of you knew of a better price or hookup or discount code on the Herbie bags. Thanks all.

I was hoping somebody could clarify the diferrences between the Chong Choice unit and the original?

From the website it look like Chongs Choice is just missing some accessories. It doesnt say aromatherapy though. So is that function actually removed?

Thanks anyone for any incite.

A review on the page mentions it being removed so I believe so. If you look at the picture it looks like they put a power button there instead.

Correct, no aromatherapy function, brush, stash box, or herbal blend. Adds four preset temps.

Seems to check all the right boxes, performance should be identical. I don't personally use the aromatherapy, for a difference of $100 I would have jumped on it had it been available when I purchased.

Thanks! Good catch on the different button. I was excited for getting one of these at $399

Are you interested in the aromatherapy option? I just bought one for 480 before the Chongs Choice was available so I didn't have the option but the lack of an aromatherapy wouldn't have stopped me from getting one. The logo saying Chongs choice would have been more of an issue with me although I guess you could just cover that with a sticker. I do like the original color much better also though. If you want an original for 480 theVapelifestore.com has it for that price.

Yes. We would use the aromatherapy feature. $480 is a great deal too. I will check it out.

Thanks everyone

Check out this video for bag replacement.
I use the Volcano bags for this. I find I can replace a bag one time before the plastic clip degrades too much to use.

I really like the Herbie bags, I just wish they weren't so expensive.

@turk @Southern Chef I pulled the trigger on the black Friday bundle. Was too good to pass up. Can't wait to get my steamroller.

I have a water piece I've used with the Delta 3D studios adapter, however I've gotten water in the Herbie a couple times and I don't want to risk it any longer.
