Consumption methods - novice to DMT

[Phlailub]

Greetings,
I have prepped for my first experience over the last few weeks. (I'm inexperienced with dmt but versed in other psychedelics and altered states)
I went back and forth on method of consumption. Since I already vape nicotine and thc I figured I'd be more comfortable with this method.
So I picked up an evolve plus xl
Measured out a suggested introductory dose
Placed my dose on the vape deck and dropped a few drops on 0mg e juice into it also
I didnt pre heat the coils and right off took one decent toke held it briefly and another.

Experience was pretty light. Which is exactly what I wanted as a first time experience with this particular psychedelic.

My inquiry is: is the method I used sound for full experience.
Should I "pre heat" the dmt,ejuice combo prior to taking first hit.
Are there any suggestions on improving this method
Or is there a better method all together.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks

Hi neighbor! I can't comment on using a vape pen. Here is what I can recommend: use a glass pipe as is commonly used for smoking cannabis, any old spoon or hammer or Sherlock or whatever you have handy. Clean it with isopropyl alcohol if you are planning on using it exclusively for spice, so there's no old resin from weed. Make a wad of copper brillo material, make sure to burn it first, place this in the bowl of the pipe. Pack it in so you have a good filter, leave enough room on top to place a decent amount of dmt. Hit this with a bic type lighter. Travel well.

I think you just answered my cat’s question. She doesn’t vape, but getting one sounds like a good way to be discreet.

Vaping with e-cig juice - Welcome discussion - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus post #370 talks about a specific temp that worked best for him, not sure if it answers your other question.

Did some reading and this website says this for temp control:
“If the Evolve Plus XL is being used with a battery mod that has temperature control features, and when equipped with one of Yocan's ceramic donut coils, then the NICKEL or NI200 temperature control mode can be used.”
