My volcano classic is built like a tank. After 11 years of daily usage it still works perfectly. And it's still my favorite way to get blazed

What do you have yours set at? I have mine on the 6.

[@MothershipTransmission]

@@howey935 If it's during the day and I got stuff to do I set it at around 6. But my favorite is 7 or 7.5 to get those milky bags while preserving the taste. I also make sure the bud is finely ground and only start filling the bag when I see vapor coming out. I found this is the best way to get the most vapor

[@howey935]

@@MothershipTransmission When I use hash I’ll do it at about 7 to 7.5. When I use hash I put the hash is a dosing capsule then put the capsule in the middle then fill round the side with flower and you better strap your tits down because a couple of bags of hash/flower mix blows your tits off lol.

I bought one of these back in grade 9 and it's been with me through everything man. I'm 34 now and i still use it every weekend. That volcano watched me grow from a burnout to a successful business owner and family man. I hope it lasts the rest of my life.

[@guesswho5170]

Storz and Bickel is like the Bentley/Rolls Royce of vapes. It’s a timeless device that has been an elite product for years. Something few other vapes can say. The vapor quality is second to none. Sure there are devices that can give you denser clouds but the QUALITY of a hit is far better in the volcano. They just feel cleaner. I normally dab but the volcano is such a pleasant and chill device that I always find myself going back to it. I’ll never not own a volcano…would probably give that B even if I quit smoking it’s such a cool device lol. And folks, PLEASE don’t spend $700 on a volcano. Is it worth it? Absolutely but why pay more when you don’t have to? If you can wait then buy around major holidays, notably 420 and Black Friday. Most places have huge sells around then. If you need it sooner than order from planet of the vapes where they normally have 20% off of storz and nickel products. On top of that you can sometimes find discount codes that either can sometimes combined with the give even greater savings. Thumbs up if this helped anyone please.

Literally used my buddies at his house two days ago cause he found it in the box buried under a bunch of shit. We cleaned it up no problem and man it brought back memories. This one wasn’t even digital and was $700 like 12 plus years ago! Definitely worth it if you can afford it!

Disagree on the "worth it", even more so in 2024... Ball vape is way better at like a forth/third the price...

[@this_isntmyname]

I have the Classic from the late 90's and still quality. Sent it in about 7 years ago to have them check it out and see if anything needed to be replaced/cleaned/refurbished. I wasn't having any issues but it had been dropped a few times over the years and had tons of use. They said the fan was still rated at 80% efficiency, everything looked good, and sent it back to me without any charge. Nothing is more consistent with flower or concentrates. You can easily find the temp you most prefer, giving you anywhere from something almost unnoticeable to choking your brains out. Plus I save the half-cashed to make surprisingly strong butter. Not really that expensive if you consider it easily lasting decades, I've had all kinds of other devices crap out after a year or two at most. Unrivaled

In my early 20s, I went to the swamp in Fort Walton Beach Florida. A nightclub on the beach and I smoked weed with a country band called Little Big Town in their van after their concert. I was the supplier they were the band. They had a volcano device. Interesting device.

[@MechArenaEno]

I only was able to do so because the girl I was dating her mother dated the drummer or somebody over there in the band from high school and so we smoked out and it wasn’t a van it was actually their tour bus

[@geewelch]

I picked up the digit right before covid hit and it saved my life tenfold - as someone with weeeeeeak lungs there literally is no other option. If you value your health it’s well worth it

[@greentoto7]

Thanks for the review, its definitely on my bucket list to get. I love my miniVAP, latest version is amazing, ive had just about every updated one. They've come a long way... the silver surfer is my daily driver,they now have a "Baller Upgrade" for it,turns it into a "BALLVAPE" basically one and done hits, STRICTLY FOR CONNOISSEURS

[@smithyMcjoe]

I'll be honest, since I've had my B1 I have not picked my Onyx hybrid back up. I used to use the Volc through glass like yourself and it was lovely, tasty as fuck and a nice cloud, but the ball vapes are absolutely insane. The Volc is fucking great for sure, but ball vapes win it for me.

[@krispykeyog]

If I mainly smoke alone and at home would you recommend the mighty portable vaporizer or the volcano hybrid ? Ima heavy daily smoker just looking for a healthier alternative

[@metalmanexetreme]

You can find them second hand for half the price, just make sure you check to make sure they were well kept.

[@floridalawdog]

I've had my volcano for about 2 years now and always used the hose. After the 2 new videos I tried the bag. I am 2.5 bags deep and ripped. It really feels like its hitting harder. Thanks Cewpins, stay safe this week.

I have 2 (one broke during Covid, had to buy one while it was being fixed), absolutely worth it. I've used it since 08', and just in amount of weed i've saved has paid for itself (i.e. only need .15g to get blazed). Great content

I bought mine 17+yrs ago in January '07. I still have the original box and receipt, and my Volcano still functions like new. It was before they called it the classic as it was the only model made. Before the EZ-valve was available

Nice Video man but if you wanna mix hash with it i would lay it on top since it will drip down onto the flower and then get vaporized but if you put it on the bottom it may drip down directly in your device which is not so nice i think with the rest you said im 100% your opinion i have one to and it is the best flower vape.

[@zobuss5533]

Highly recommend getting a glass 14mm adapter for the bags. Also recommend the smaller bowl insert. Using the bag through a piece is absolutely perfect 👊

Great party rig.

Ordered a new Volcano Hybrid, and my only concern was the stale smoke like from a bong. Awesome to hear. Vape flavor doesn't change, like stale smoke.

[@KillerKush_]

Definitely interested to see you review the volcano classic

[@dmvbenz7536]

I bought one of these 4 months ago and it’s the only thing I’ve been using to smoke, I tried going back to combustion but hated the taste of it, the only thing I don’t like about the volcano is you go through weed like crazy

[@AboveAverageGamer1]

@@dmvbenz7536 they make a reducing chamber, so you only have to load like 1/4 of the og bowl.

[@eve_squared]

I feel like vapor definitely can get stale but it takes much longer. The bags I find don't really give you good flavor though, if you want that its best to use the whip. I don't have a volcano but I do have an XQ2 which does bags and has a whip. I do really like that it's so hard to break things with desktop units though, I've broken two rigs in the time I've been herb vaping and I've only ever broken one of the whip connectors and one of the mouth pieces, not even bad enough to ruin it just a chip. You mentioning that the arizer had wimpy hits kinda confused me though, I find that it makes some nice hits. But I have something for you to try Cewpins, if you still have the Arizer, take one of the thimble screens and throw 3 small terp pearls in it and set it right on top of the heating element. I find that if you block the path the air has to take it forces the chamber to absorb more heat and you get a more even vape. This is a hack I came up with on my own so I don't know if other people do it, but it feels like it does get me that tiny bit further that makes the unit way worth it for the price. I got mine for only 130 or so.

[@weirdokiller123126]

IMPORTANT TIP The grinder that comes from the same company that sells the volcano makes the volcano work at least 2x better. The grain size of the herb is much finer, specifically for this vape.

[@Sandmanx925]

Try the cheaper one ! Id love to see how the volcano compares

[@cewpins]

Yeah I learned it functions differently, gotta see how well it does compared to this one.

[@IPWNBXRmash]

one thing i realized when starting to smoke, smoking one way gets boring, i feel sucking on a bag every night would loose its magic, it certainly don't feel like smoking, i just got the terp ready system and it blows everything else away, but i don't find it heats a dabs very well at all, i have it on 600 and it wont vape my hash, but i haven't tried rosin or resin yet, i also like hitting my terpcicle or dab rigs, sometimes i throw a joint in there, i just need several ways to get high, but my fav is a beaker bong and terp hammer.

[@attabot]

You should try the Arizer xq2. I’ve heard it’s pretty comparable to the volcano and regularly on sale for only like $140

[@Likefrieswithat]

this, I picked up a return for under 100. has a remote, 2 bags. can't go wrong. Use their handheld also. can't recommend enough.

[@mup_pet]

I bought a Volcano Hybrid after only using Dynavaps for 3 years. Used it a dozen times, and it went back into its box. So inefficient compared to the Dynas, and so wasteful, even with the reducer and dosing capsules. It also lacks that certain something in the effects, which was also frustrating. Wish I'd gone for the Arizer as well, and with an elbow pack, that thing can smack (at least from what I've read).

I get six cloudy bags at 375 and two thick bags (after the six bags) at 400. So I got eight bags in total before changing bowls.

[@derekmurdock9269]

Expensive. But well worth it. People will look at the price and deny buying one based on that. But right when I'm done vaping mine, I put them in the empty Keurig tea things from Walmart, you put the avb in the Keurig tea holder, insert it, and make some tea that will do wonders. The tea is usually REALLY strong.

Get the dosing ring for the volcano, this way you can use the dosing caps. 1 bag per cap is nicest for flavour, because to be honest if you do 2 bags of the normal bowl, the second bag isn’t as great as the first right?!

I’ve had my volcano since 1999 and I’m a medical user so use it everyday and it’s been worth every penny of the £499:99 I paid for it. The only expense you’ll have for it is new rolls of bags which are less than €5 for a 3meter roll.

The reducer chamber x2 The terp pearls The 18mm hydotube I've become like a barista with this thing. I can get a few decent clouds, and I really didn't use that much weed. Was really disappointing how it came, i think that stupid coil thing is useless bordering not good for you, and they had over 10 years to do better. Dang, ill Probedly end up getting the dam thing now its the only one i can legally buy in Australia now, i really hope at least the screw on chamber things from the plenty fit.

[@RePetesBees]

The trick for a 'big rip' (disclaimer: this is for my model, i cant speak for all of them) is to set the fan speed to LOW. Maybe even up the temp a little more. And before you actually turn the fan on, let the herb just kind of sit on the heat for a little. You can get the bag to fill up with thick, almost yellow looking smoke. You suck that bag in.... its the most powerful rips ive ever done besides a gravity bong, and g-bongs are rough if you dont gets ones with a down stem into the water. You will compromise on flavor, but if your looking for efficiency, try that :P

[@AboveAverageGamer1]

You can't adjust the fan speed on the 'cano's. Unless you have a model i haven't tried, but the classic snd hybrid don't have that feature.

[@spud2116]

It's not $700, it's usually sold for around 450-500. And if you are only using two temps that's why you can't get lots of bags from a full bowl - if you temp step a little you can get more... Up to 8 good thick bags if you start at around 180c. Only getting 2 (unless they are XL bags) seems a huge waste

[@AdamHall-n9y]

I can tell you that this unit is worth with the money that you pay for it. I’ve had one for five years and had very little problems with it. The trick is just changing the bag it needs change, not pushing it too far and same thing with the whip, you’ll see stuff start building up on the inside to let you know it’s time to change it

[@AdamHall-n9y]

There is an accessory that you can buy for that hybrid where it’ll filter water before you pull it through the bag or whip, but not many people know this

[@theovonskeletor3709]

The digital ones don’t last as long. The bags are good for passing around but I always liked the whip vape like the silver surfer the most, the cano is shit compared with whips. Cano is a farm staple. Pro tip get the solid valve, it makes the experience exponentially better and you can just use a turkey bag when you change it out instead of those loud crinkly bullshits they want you to buy. F that plastic chamber thing it comes with too. Solid Valve FTW
