VAPORIZATION - Revolutionary Technology

What is vaporizing?

Cannabis vaporization is a technology designed to deliver inhaled cannabinoids while avoiding the respiratory hazards of smoking. It works by heating cannabis to a temperature where therapeutically active cannabinoid vapours are produced, but below the point of combustion where tar and other heavy particulates are formed. Journal of Cannabis Therapeutics, Vol. 4(1) 2004

Which Vaporizer is the best?

The best vaporizers available today are Convection vaporizers which use super heated air to extract the cannabinoids. They are the most effective at producing pure vapor and have become the new standard.

There are a lot of convection vaporizers available on the market and all of them claim to work well. However in our experience they can vary quite a bit on efficiency and the quality of the device itself. Some are notorious for breaking down or burning out after a few months of use. In our experience, the highest standard of vaporizing is currently maintained by the HerbalAire and the Volcano.

 The HerbalAire is invented in Canada by an engineer who set out to build the perfect vaporizer it stands out as the overall best machine for the safe delivery of cannabinoids. The microchip driven electronic air-pump system extracts more vapor from your herb than any other machine and beats the Volcano on a number of points including price, portability and efficiency.

Essence On Demand

Eighteen tiny jets of precisely heated air permeate the herb only when the user inhales or when the pump for the bag fill kit is turned on. At all other times the herb sits idle, preserving the essence, waiting for the next demand. No wastage! Active ingredients are extracted at the lowest possible temperatures with maximum efficiency. herbalAire user testimonials indicate this device extracts 4 to 6 times more active ingredients from herbs than smoking.

Safe, Tested Design

The herbalAire is constructed using durable, high tech materials producing no smell or taste. The vaporizing air is completely isolated from the heating element and flows through only the safest materials (Teflon is a revolutionary material used in cookware, completely safe for herbal vaporizer temperatures). The exterior of the herbalAire is glass filled nylon.

Superior Temperature Control

250F-400F temperature control allows for optimal vaporization temperature. Not all herbs or tobaccos should be vaporized at the same temperature. herbalAire's Learning Temperature control adapts to the climate and environment where it is being used.

A Scientific Grade Instrument

The herbalAire is engineered to the highest of standards and is currently being used in China to research the effectiveness of vaporizing ancient Chinese herbal medicines. West met East 50 years ago with Martial Arts. West met East 10 years ago with the popularization of Yoga. West is once again meeting the East with its depth of knowledge of ancient, therapeutic, alternative herbal medicines. Be ready with the instrument of choice - the herbalAire.

The Volcano Vaporizer is the most famous; it is also an effective machine. It is made in Germany and set the standard for vaporizing. It works very well, is made of very high quality parts and is guaranteed to work for a very long time. However it is a high-end imported device and the price reflects that.

 Be wary of hot plate vaporizers

The first attempts at vaporizing involved using a hot plate to heat the herb. It is generally accepted that this method has become obsolete. These conduction vaporizers are inexpensive at less than $100, however they tend to be too hot and release much more tar than is necessary.

Generally speaking, eating, smoking or vaporizing cannabis produces a different effect on the user.

When cannabis is eaten, cannabinoids enter the bloodstream through the digestive system and are carried throughout the body. Cannabinoids that are digested are mostly felt in the body and have less affect on the nervous system. Physical impairment is at its highest when cannabis is eaten.

 

When cannabis is smoked, cannabinoids as well as tar and other burnt particulates are delivered through the respiratory system. Some cannabinoids cling to the heavy smoke particles and settle into the bloodstream, while some cannabinoids are released as a vapor which rises up into the nervous system producing an overall effect throughout the mind and body.

 

When cannabis is vaporized, only cannabinoids are released. These lighter than air particles quickly move to the brain, immediately affecting the nervous system. The overall effect is a clear headedness and brighter outlook without the drowsiness or impairment associated with smoking and eating.
