I am wondering for the VaporBros users out there, about how many hits do you get per bowl and what is your vaping technique?

I usually fill the bowl 1/3-1/2 way up, with ground erb.

I set the temp to just barely over the half-way point and take the first hit.

I usually turn it up a tiny bit and take another one.

Then I stir the bowl and take another hit, but with a slower draw speed. This usually feels like it is the last hit.

I then turn the temp up some more, now it is exactly 3/4 the way up and take another hit, but usually don't get much.

I stir again well and take one more just to make sure, but this time with a very slow draw.

It feels like it is finished after the first 2 or 3 hits... am I doing this correctly?

peace

Whenever I use the Vapor Bros I usually start it out around 1 oclock and end up turning it down to around 12 oclock after about 10 minutes.

Yea, we fill it up 1/3-1/2 the way up then usually tamp it down with the back of a pen or something just to compress it the TINIEST bit.

A bowl that size will usually give 6-8 good hits (15-20 seconds). After the first three take a paper clip (bent so it's straight) and stir the weed to expose stuff that wasn't exposed earlier.

Hope that helps.

Too hot a temp will cook your herb too quick, and you do have to stir the bowl to get it all exposed to the hot air stream. It's easier to make sure you get it all vaped if you load a smaller amount. It will decrease the size and number of hits, for sure. It's a trade off. OTOH, a large quantity in the bowl means having to hit spent herb repeatedly to make sure you're getting to it all, and that ends up compromising the taste toward the end of the bowl.
