Plunger for Dosing Capsules

A vaporizer heats dry herb or concentrate to a set temperature that releases its active compounds and aroma as vapor, without burning the material. Because there's no combustion, you avoid the smoke, ash, and burnt plant byproducts that come with traditional smoking.

Desktop vaporizers plug into the mains and are built for home use, often with larger chambers and steady heat output that make them well suited to sharing with others. Portable vaporizers run on a rechargeable battery, are more compact, and are designed for convenience away from home.

Different active compounds and terpenes are released at different temperatures, so precise control lets you fine-tune both the flavor and intensity of each session. Lower temperatures tend to highlight flavor and aroma, while higher temperatures release more of the plant's compounds at once.

Conduction heats the herb directly through contact with a heated chamber, while convection passes hot air through the material instead. Many higher-end vaporizers combine both methods, using conduction to warm the chamber and convection to vaporize the herb more evenly.

Dosing capsules let you pre-fill a measured amount of herb in advance, so you can swap in a fresh capsule instead of grinding and loading your device each time. They're a convenient way to keep sessions consistent, portioned, and mess-free, especially when you're out and about.

Most vaporizers can be taken apart for cleaning: soak water-resistant parts in warm, soapy water, use a soft brush to clear residue from screens and chambers, and let everything dry fully before reassembling. Replacing screens, seals, and other wear parts periodically also helps keep performance and airflow consistent.

Many vaporizers are designed specifically for dry herb, while others include attachments or chambers suited to concentrates as well. Check the specifications on each product page, since the ideal temperature range and accessories can differ between the two.

Vaporizers themselves are legal consumer devices across Europe, since they're simply heating tools. What you choose to vaporize in them is subject to your local laws, so it's worth checking the specific regulations in your country or region.
