Vaporizer: Vaporising herbs
A vaporizer - also called a vaporiser, dry herb vaporizer or herbal vaporizer, is a device that allows you to vaporise desired active ingredients of herbs by means of convection or conduction heat or a combination of both. The dried herbs are heated up to a certain temperature without burning.
During vaporisation, active ingredients are released without producing harmful substances as in combustion. This is why vaporisers are also used as inhalation devices for medicinal purposes.
The vape process releases vapour with a first-class aroma, which you can then inhale.

✓ Pure taste

Vaporising in 7 steps - this is how it works.
Vaporising dried herbs does not involve combustion. The herbs are heated in a small heating chamber so that the aromatic substances dissolve in a gentle way. These bind to the passing air molecules, which are inhaled and absorbed by the lungs.
Herbs have different boiling points. The vaporisation temperature can be set differently in a vaporiser for herbs.
The step-by-step procedure for a vapour session is as follows:
- Dose herbs
- Grind the herbs with a grinder
- Prepare the vaporizer for herbs
- Fill herbs into the filling chamber
- Heat the vaporizer to the desired temperature
- Enjoy and feel the effect
- Empty and clean

What should I pay attention to when steaming?

How do I inhale from a herbal vaporizer?
Wait until the vaporizer has reached its ideal temperature before taking the first puff. To do this, place your lips close to the mouthpiece. Start by preparing your vaporizer with a few gentle puffs. Slowly draw the vapour into your mouth and breathe Then exhale and enjoy the aroma.
What is the difference between convection and conduction?
Herbal vaporisers heat herbs using even, controlled heat. While conduction heats the herb itself, convection blows hot air over the herbs to heat them.
STORZ & BICKEL uses a patented solution for some units: the combination of convection and conduction heat. Conduction heat ensures that the filling chamber and the herbs are heated, while convection heating simultaneously ensures even and efficient evaporation.
How do you clean and maintain a vaporizer for herbs?
To keep the vaporizer in good working order and to guarantee a long service life, regular cleaning is necessary. You can read about the product-specific cleaning methods in the enclosed instructions for use. In general, it is advisable to disassemble the vaporizer into its individual parts and place all water-resistant parts in a bowl filled with warm soapy water. Larger dirt or deposits can be removed with a cloth or cleaning brushes. After the individual parts have dried, the vaporizer can be reassembled.
