Really? That seems a little low, but it is a game of getting it hot enough to vaporize the concentrate and keeping it low enough to avoid scorching the herb... Also this highly depends on the vape you are using too!
Well for me I like to preserve flavor and terps as long as I can. I have issues with this though. I'm doing cold starts and I usually just get it hot it enough to see it start to buble. That works good but then the rest of it just pools. So I sit and try and time it so it won't burn but that's easier said than done. Just a few minutes ago, my first time trying "badder".

If you see the oil bubbling, pooling and whatever, imho it means that you are placing too much concentrate and too little weed.
The goal of sandwiching is to avoid the concentrate to liquify, damaging a vaporizer not designed to vape trates, or falling off from the oven in liquid form and not vaporizing it.
@jerri knowing which vape you are using would help, but there are many variables at play. Just put a grain of rice on a bed of weed. Especially if it’s a portable that you are using, start at low temperatures and check how the concentrate behaves.
After a few hits the concentrate should have made a mash with weed. In the bestpossible scenario, go on and vape, rising temperatures if needed. If oil is pooling or weed is scorching, adjust your weed/oil ratio.

I'm just using the concentrate, not sanwiching.

Maybe you should sandwich, if you oil pools inside the chamber. And place less concentrate next time. It’s not just “which temp to use”. Not to mention the fact you both don’t specify which vape are using how can we help?
Not to mention that draw speed, nature of the concentrate, its purity have a big role and again it’s not just “which temp”.Maybe you should sandwich, if you oil pools inside the chamber.

I think you quoted the wrong guy. I'm just using a regular torch and rig. Anyway, shouldn't you be able to take a bigger dab and keep it at the right temp without burning it and vaping the rest of the pool at the bottom of the banger?

@jerri I don’t own that one, but with my portables I always use max temp with concentrates. Just be sure not to place too much stuff. I’d start at 190°C and go up from there if I was unfamiliar with a vape.
Well at least it was the bottom of a banger and not a portable vape oven.
I may be not on par with the latest developments, but as far as I know concentrates, I never heard of a “session/pool mode” like that. You are supposed to put a “grain of rice” quantity and inhale it in a hit or 2.
No I was talking to you actually

I'm sure a "grain of rice" works great in fact I've been able to do that before. When people want to share though there has got be an easier way than loading it up every time you pass it. I've seen plenty of people take huge dabs and not have to load it up every pass. There is no "special mode" as I'm not using an e-rig. E-rigs are terrible compared to a glass rig and torch. I can control the heat much better and easier this way. A e-rig will definitely burn it because they go to temp so fast and stay at a specific temp. Also I have been able to vape that "pool" of oil at the end, just have to dial it in as far as how long I wait to hit it again. Sorry I should have been more clear. Sometimes I have trouble with the "pool" burning, but I have been successful at vaping that pool without burning it.
They are probably doing a regular dab where you heat the nail up hotter and hit it on the coil down. cold starts don’t have the thermal energy for getting a bunch of hits off one heat up.
I know. I'm saying you can heat it up again. As long as the flame isn't too hot and you don't heat it for too long. It won't burn if you don't burn it.
