Could someone who is familiar with the Volcano's tell me the best way to use it? I just got mine yesterday and so far it's awesome but I'd like to make sure I'm getting the most out of my bud. How much do you pack each time? What temp setting to you put it on? Do you raise the temp after a few bags? How many bags do you fill off it? Any tips would be great. :bong:
Here's a pic of what my bag looks like after I fill it, I don't think I'm getting much vape?

u should keep it on the lowest setting, it might take a lot longer but thats wat the volcano is for....im sure u can fill the bag 2 its max potential (up to 15 hits probally) ....and u Really should grind up yer tree b4 u smoke it, i wonder wat drying it out would do 2????? maybe fill the bag quicker, where do u live???? how expensive was yer volcano and where did u get it??
OK try this method.
Switch volcano heating element ON - do not turn it off - keep it on all the time.
Measure some bud. I usually use 0.3g but this might be a bit much for some people.
Don't grind it (no I'm not kidding)
Set volcano temp dial to 4.5/5.0
Very roughly break the weed into chunks and into the volcano - 5 or 6 lumps
Run the volcano - inhale bag full :)
Increase temp by 0.5 - run again
run again unless no more vapour appears....
remove weed - break it up some more
run again
up the temp to 6 and run again
take the weed out - grind it - back in again
Up the temp to 7 (205 degrees 'C')
Keep going (all the way to Temp 9 if you want) until no more vape happens.
I find this extracts a fuck of a lot of THC and keeps the taste amazing all the time, each time you break it up even more flavour comes out - at high temps it doesn't taste so good. Afterwards though this vapor-poo/duff is not much use and isn't good for smoking or brownies.
Don't beleive that the Volcano only extract 40% THC - it extract 40% in ONE RUN continually grinding and exposing the plant material means you really do get a lot more THC out of the weed compared with setting it on fire.
so confused

Vaporstar uses the same method in the instructions, have a look at the website it has the instructions on there.
