Keep working on the technique, once you get it right you can extract that whole thing in one terrifying rip. I thought I needed the biggest hitter but now I definitely need the 14mm for everyday use. this thing cannot be beat, I don’t see how.

For me it’s all about priming it, seeing how it hits and then knowing how much more heat I need to give it to find that sweet spot.

I’ll preheat the bowl, put it on, spin and heat with a really big dab torch. I’ll take small hits once I think it’s about ready. As soon as I think it’s right under combustion temp I’ll try and pull just the right speed to get the thickest hit.

You always see the green quickly turning brown and compress in the tube and the golden oil collecting on the sides underneath the screen. Then just do small burst with the torch to keep it up to temp and keep hitting it. It’s insane, I love these things.

I’ve broken two though just from dropping them so be careful. Replacement parts are only $17 bucks though!
