Oil Burner ( Glass Pipe)

Migrated topic.
I don't know about an oil burner, but I've found that using a candle with the machine works the best. I tried a torch lighter, a normal bic lighter, matches and candle just worked best for me. Just my 2 cents.

Oh, and if you're worried about wasting spice, why didn't you stick to using the machine? Did it not work very well for you?

It works well, but im just concerned about the dish scrubber mesh material being inhaled.
Im interested in the glass pipe because I have heard awesome trip reports on it by Terence Mckenna himself.

A candle was SWIM first tried the machine, and it did work well. He switched to a torch, however, and never went back. He guesses it can take a bit of getting used to but never had trouble with it, himself.

Most designs of the machine have safe guards in place. The standard design does not have enough pressure for this to happen, either due to plenty of air passage around the inhalation tube and/or through the plug. SWIM's design used a bubbler to protect from this. The baster design uses a cotton ball. Some rely on nothing more than air passage through the plug, and SWIM would like to think they leave plenty.

Terence is not the end-all reference of DMT use. The culture has taken leaps and bounds since his time and apart from his influence. He spoke well on the experience, but is not necessarily the authority on its administration.
 
Use a torch lighter, you can baby that bowl nice and good.

If you do use a bic lighter, you can be sure you will vape that spice proper, but you will also burn it, and end up with a black pipe.

You might aswell make some changa/enhanced leaf and just smoke it out of a bong. After some time you should be able to punish a bowl in one pull.

Now, im able to put the bong down as the effects are starting to take hold of reality. Much easier than trying to figure out what the heck is happening when you are starting to take that second/third pull.

I just got one! But torch it? My friend that gave it to me said to use a lighter. He said the torch with break the glass.
 
Hmm, no offence to your friend, but he is talking rubbish.

If you are talking about getting the oil burner then the torch lighter will most deffinately not crack the pipe.

Trust me, this was my first method of administration and the the pipe is still fine.

But the only way to find out yourself is to test it out yourself and report back.

Cool then.
I tried it today with cannabis! I held a candle flame to it and vaporized the herbs within seconds!!!:shock: :d

If Cannabis has a higher boiling point then DMT and the candle flame was enough for cannabis, then I really dont think I should use a torch tho.:?
 
i've used both lighter and torch. the torch is good to heat up the bowl the fastest, but you have to make short passes with the lighter to keep it from burning once its vaping. the bic is nice because you just hold the bulb in the blue part of the flame until it starts to vape then start pulling slow with the bulb in the blue the whole time. i have used a bic and cleared a 50 mg dose in one hit before, my favorite way to do it. you have to watch it carefully either way though. good luck.

""The temperature of a Bic lighter flame is 1977C"

matches burn at 1600C but drop to wood burning temp..

id say a candle is best to use in any situation, as it seems like not as hot, but then again who knows..

i will tell you however, that using a candle on a oil burner "pipe" will turn the outside of the bulb rather black..:)

id say to go with a regular lighter on one of those things, and the cheap 4 pack lighters work fine, and are the same price usually as 1 buc. so you dont waste as much fuel
 
I agree with Dimitri-Trance. A standard lighter burns cooler and is much easier to manage once you hit the vape point. What you're really doing is heating the glass to the vaporization point, so with a "softer" heat it's much easier to maintain a constant temperature once you see those very faint first wisps of vapor. It takes a little practice to get used to, but you'll figure it out quickly, and like D-Trance said... You absolutely can vape 50mg in one hit if you manage your intake slowly and smoothly, and keep that bowl heat right in the sweet spot. Good luck!

Peace,
