Thinking about vaping CBD but you are not sure how to do it the right way? You are not alone. Vaporizers can be complex to use especially if you have never used one before. In today's guide we will go through all that you need to know about CBD vaping. BUT FIRST...
...What is CBD vaping
Vaping is the process in which a liquid is electronically heated (CBD oil in this case) using a battery powered device to produce vapor that can be inhaled. Vaping has in recent years become popular among CBD and medical marijuana users.
It is highly potent as it delivers a high amount of the CBD into the user's direct circulation. Also, vaping offers stealth and is more convenient. You see, you can easily slide a vaporizer, loaded and ready to use, in your bag or pocket and carry it around to most places. Unlike smoking weed or hemp flowers for CBD, you do not need to roll a joint, blunt or spliff.
Surely, there is every reason we love vaping CBD today. So, what is the best way to vape CBD?
Know your equipment
When it comes to vaping anything, you need a vaporizer- a vape metal case with four basic components; a battery, heating element (atomizer), mouthpiece and chamber to hold the oil. A CBD Vape pen or vaporizer works by heating CBD oil in the chamber using an element. The CBD turns into vapor that you inhale through the mouthpiece.
There are two distinct styles of vapes used for vaping CBD.
Pen style vape
You are right, it is shaped like a pen and many times the size of a pen. The pen style vape is typically used for concentrates like CBD isolate.
This vaporizer’s heating element is a coil inside the chamber that holds the oil. The coil heats up the oil to vaporize it. Vape pen coils often burn and need to be replaced periodically. Some brands may offer you an extra coil to replace the integral one when it loses its efficiency.
Tank style vape
Tank style CBD vapes use a battery that heats up a small disposable cartridge or a refillable cartridge. They are bigger in size and will carry more oil and a larger battery than pen style vapes.
Tanks use CBD e-liquid (a mix of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, flavors, and CBD) instead of concentrated CBD isolates. These kinds of vapes create huge clouds of smoke. Its heating coils are filled or wrapped with cotton, nylon, or silica wick. The e-liquid is absorbed into this material and vaporized into smoke
There are two kinds of tank vape style: disposable and reusable
Disposable vapes are also called cartomizers because they come with prefilled, disposable cartridges. They come with cheaper, low quality materials. The reusable vapes can be refilled with your own CBD e-liquid.
