Here are some tips for you to improve your enjoyment of the Volcano Vaporizer. Enjoy!

- Grind your herbs as finely as possible. The finer you grind your herbs the more effective becomes the vaporiazation method because you increase the surface. The Volcano comes with a grinder which is very good for this. You can also get an electric coffee grinder like Snoop Dogg uses in the Up in Smoke DVD :D

- Always let the Volcano heat up for a few minutes before using it!

- You can vaporize the same herbs several times. Don’t overdo it though. When the stuff changes colour and loses smell its time to throw it away ;)

- When you have sensitive lungs and a Volcano hit makes you cough try lower settings. You don’t have to use the Volcano at the highest setting!

- To make the Volcano experience even more enjoyable, hook the Volcano up with a bong to cool the vapor. Check this post to see how to use the Volcano Vaporizer with a bong!

If you got some tips on your own feel free to leave a comment or send me a mail and i will include them!

In this weeks article i want to talk about the use of the Volcano Vaporizer in aroma therapy for a bit. While im typing up this article i can already see the huge question mark in the faces of most readers. “WTF is aroma therapy?”. I was wondering the same since i saw this term popping up in association with the Volcano Vaporizer all the time but had no clue what its all about.

Aroma therapy is the practice of using essential oils for improving psychological and physical health. Essential oils are highly concentrated extracts from leaves, stems, roots, bark, or other parts of various plants. These potent extracts are shown to have anti-bacterial, anti-septic and various other medicinal advantages.

There are tons of ways to use essential oil for personal well-being, such as adding it to bath-water, using it as masage-oil additive, natural bug-repellent or inhaling it. And this is where the Volcano Vaporizer comes into play!

The Volcano isnt limited to a variety of herbs but it can also vaporize essential oils too. In fact it is much more effective than other means of inhalation that are common in aroma therapy, such as steam inhalation or oil burners. Due to the nature of the vaporization method you need to use less material and have more control over the vaporization temperature applied to it.

If you plan to use the Volcano Vaporizer for aroma therapy though, make sure to use only essential oils that have been certified for aroma therapy and that are 100% pure. Apparently some manufacturers use chemicals in their essential oils which can be potentially dangerous if inhaled. So make sure you buy the good stuff!

Personally i find this field fascinating and im planning to buy some essential oils myself in the future to get a first-hand experience of inhaling these oils.

Hey Folks, welcome back in the New Year! I hope you all had nice holidays and enjoyed the time with your families.

Today i want to talk about a field thats not usually associated with the Volcano Vaporizer, but in which the Volcano still gets put to use nevertheless. Its gastronomy! Yes you heard me right.

Chefs in restaurants use the ability of the Volcano Vaporizer to apply controlled heat to herbs to get a desired flavour into their foods. Awesome, isn“t it?

But the Volcano Vaporizer is also used in a special field of gastronomy thats known as molecular cuisine or molecular gastronomy. Now you may wonder what is molecular gastronomy? In the purest sense of the word, molecular gastronomy is scientific discipline involving the study of physical and chemical processes that occur in cooking.

But it is also used to describe a new style of cooking that emerged in the late 1990s. Chefs began to explore new possibilities in the kitchen by embracing science, research, technological advances in equipment and experimenting with various natural gums and hydrocolloids produced by the commercial food processing industry.

A famous chef of the molecular gastronomy movement is the chef of the El Bulli restaurant in spain, Ferran adria. Adria is famous for his thirty course gourmet menue, creating culinary foam and was also one of the first to use a Volcano Vaporizer for gastronomic experimentation.

Many molecular chefs are now following in the footsteps of famed chef Ferran Adria of el Bulli Restaurant in Spain and using the Volcano to add flavoring to their food. He is considered one of the best chefs in the world and tops the European Restaurant Ranking.

Personally i find it amazing in how many different fields the Volcano Vaporizer gets used and what different kind of people can benefit from it. It is truly a scientific miracle for me!

Volcano Classic vs. Volcano Digit

Lots of people are asking what the difference is between the Volcano Digit and the Volcano Classic and which one to choose. I want to shed some light on these questions in this article.

Basically, the main difference between the Volcano Classic and the Volcano Digit is that you have more control over the heating temperature with the Volcano Digit. Using its big LED screen you can adjust the temperature much more precisely than using the knob on the Volcano Classic. While the Volcano Classic has a temperature accuracy of +/- 9 degrees Fahrenheit, the Volcano Digit has an accuracy of +/- 2,7 degrees Fahrenheit. This might be especially interesting for people using the Volcano Vaporizer for aroma therapy and using lots of different plants with different vaporization temperatures.

Due to the increased precision of the Volcano Digit it has a higher effectiveness than the Volcano Classic. Apparently even less plant material is needed using the Volcano Digit since you have more control and can choose the heating temperature more exactly to match the vaporization temperature of the specific plant you want to vaporize.

Additionally, the Volcano Digit fills up the bag way faster than the Volcano Classic, taking only 21 seconds! This might be a point worth considering for the unpatient users.

Another neat feature is that the Volcano Digit turns itself off after a period of time. So if you pass out you dont have to worry about the Volcano running all night and wasting energy.

Personally im using the Volcano Classic and im very happy with it. You will have to decide for yourself if those new features are worth the extra cash to you.

Get high with the Volcano Vaporizer

http://www.articlesbase.com/wellness-articles/get-high-with-the-volcano-vaporizer-908975.html

In this post i want to talk a bit about the high that the Volcano Vaporizer produces.

Everyone who has tried out the Volcano Vaporizer will affirm you that the high you get from this device is slightly different from the high you would get from bongs, joints or pipes.

The high from the Volcano Vaporizer is a very smooth kind of high, that slowly builds up after inhaling the baloon. Especially if you are used to smoking bong regularly (and even more if you mix with tobacco) you might actually be disappointed by this kind of high, because bong smokers usually are used to the BANG effect you get when you take a bong hit.

But the problem is that this BANG isnt even produced by the marijuana itself, but rather by the rapid intake of high amounts of nicotine. Its is very very unhealthy and also very addictive. I personally know people who have to take a hit like every 30 mins to an hour because they are so addicted to this BANG produced by the nicotine and all the chemicals in tobacco. So if you are a regular bong user i would advise you to try out a Volcano Vaporizer, see if you like or dislike the difference in the effect you get and maybe use that as a chance to easily get over your tobacco addiction and get that healthy smoke into your life!

On the other hand if your preferred way of smoking is joints or pipes then you will simply love the Volcano Vaporizer. Due to the nature of the Vaporization method you can appreciate the taste and effect of cannabis much more than with regular combustion. If you have access to different strains of cannabis you will propably have a great time appreciating the fine differences in taste and effect between the different strains, as they come out much more clearly than with smoking. In my opinion, the Volcano Vaporizier is a must for every real cannaisseur!

For me personally, the biggest advantage is that i can enjoy marijuana pure without mixing it with tobacco. This gets me a much more smooth high and virtually no paranoia, which i sometimes used to get when mixing with tobacco.

Finally, never forget the effectiveness of the Volcano Vaporizer! The vaporization method is much more effective than regular combustion and you need half or less plant material than you would need with smoking. Many first time users are suprised how high you can get from very small amounts of weed. So dont make the mistake to load up a HUGE bowl if you havent experienced the high of the Volcano Vaporizer before, at least not if you have something to do in the next few hours ;)
