New vape decisions and other thoughts.

I've never managed to dial in one of my dry herb vapes, but I also didn't made any enhanced leaf. I've simply added a couple of layers of mesh and tried vaping freebase on them. Neither was a 'big' hit. What recipe do you follow for enhanced leaf? Might give it a try, since I do love the capsules for reloading.

The concentrate vapes are a different story, even the cheapest like the Yocan Orbit, or the more advanced the Divine Tribe v5, and even the queen of all vapes: The Ispure Daab have been very reliable one hit wonders.

Yeah, I also struggled with the torch style dry herb vapes and freebase--lots of variables to factor in, but when it all clicked it was glorious... instead of a stream of thin vapor, it would alll suddenly explode into a thick cloud of vapor all at once. However, I could never feel 100% comfortable going under with a still-hot torch lighter beside me. Infused herb or changa was easier, but also not as consistent as I'd have liked.

My first digital vape was a desktop volcano using balloons, but even that had a lot of drawbacks (like recrystalization inside the balloon. The newer convection dry herb vapes are so much easier and consistent, IMO. I'm not a fan of multiple draws, so I aim for one long 30 second draw to clear/vaporize all the goodies. E-mesh is still the king of one-hit blast-off, but too fiddly to load and measure out doses.

For infused leaf, I've been testing a variety of different bases/mixes, and my fave is simple damiana (100mg of fairly finely cut damiana infused with 50mg dmt benzoate per dosing capsule) since it's ideal starting vape range is the same as DMT benzoate (185-190+ C) and the relaxing/slightly sedating effect is good for pre-flight anxiety.

I'm also about to experiment with Indian Warrior flower for its muscle relaxing qualities (not sure what vape range is suitable but will find out soon) and also small amounts of CBD isolate. Thinking that a dosing capsule of Indian Warrior and/or CBD followed by a dosing capsule of the damaina/DMT might be the combo of ease/effect that I've been searching for, and maybe a gel tab of sublingual harmine/THH 20 mins beforehand for special occasions.
