Hi there B. I've idea what "milking" a bong means although I have read it on here a few times.
I have a Launch Box (adaptor ordered). Would you be able to explain how exactly you connect your LB to your bong and how you go about milking it.
Also is the hit from the LB-bong as good as a hit from a regular combustion bong?
Thanks in advance!
milking just refers to filling your bong vapor/smoke. its more from smokers, we always called it chalking, not milking, but milking seems to be the prevalent term. check some milk shots on your tube. with vapor you'll never get the creamy white milk that smoke looks like, but you can still get some very thick and tasty hits.
My SSV whip makes a great seal on my 14mm, and my LB whip fits perfectly into the SSV whip, so I cut a small section of my SSV whip, inserted my LB whip. I have a video of my LB bong rips somewhere in this thread, but with a slightly different setup.
As far as better than smoke, thats all about your preference. I like vapor bongs soooo much better than combustion, but its different. From what I understand, a good vapor hit takes around ten minutes for the effects to truly be felt, where as with a smoke rip you tend to feel it much faster, partially due to your body's response to all the nasty shit that comes with smoking. I will take a vapor bong every time. For me, it is better by far.
As far as getting huge clouds goes, if you prefer to take a lot of smaller hits, thats fine for you. I find that when vaping a trench the high is very different if I take a lot of small hits to kill the trench vs taking a few huge hits. I greatly prefer the high that comes with a few huge rips, if it even is less efficient that doesn't bother me because I would rather have the high I prefer. Vaping is already so much more efficient than smoking, I don't really care about the wasted vapor I exhale. I do the partial exhale technique, usually 3 breaths or so. I also found the same ratio to be true when I smoked. I would rather take one huge bong rip than smoke the same amount over a few hits. Is one more efficent than the other? who knows. personally I doesn't really matter to me. 1/8 lasts me 3-4 weeks in my LB or MZ(not my SSV tho), if thats me being wasteful I'm totally cool with that. I used to smoke 1/8 a week, at least.
Also, I have no science to back this up, but I always thought we absorbed a fairly consistent % of inhaled vapor, be the hit large or small, which wouldn't really change the total amount of wasted vapor exhaled for every trench I vape, right? Is there any science validate that smaller hits waste less vapor?
, in between the quick pulses draw the air from around the area of the stem tip if you know what im saying.
Looks like my PA is on the way!!
