The Mighty Volcano - Every CannAchist Should Have One!

in #cannabis8 years ago (edited)

A week ago in pure celebration of having part time electric back again,and no chance to buy crypto with some cash, I decided it was time to get a vaporizer again...Well either that or get a really nice 1kg of handpoured silver in a bar at the same price..

Oh did I say A vaporizer?! I meant to write THEE vaporizer -

The Volcano! by Storz & Bickel

P1040443.JPG

It's been 10 years since the lastime I owned one, or better to say that its 10 years since I had the money for one floating around and electric at the same time!

This was the first vaporizer I had got back in the UK when I was living that drone lifestyle and I'll never forget it. Even today its just as good as it was back then which leaves me to believe that it must still be the best NONPortable vap on the market for having at home. I have no affiliation with this company, I am just a very happy customer who enjoys this product and wanted to give a review of it here on Steemit. Lets dive in to the two main benefits from using vapes :

  • Health.

Its very obvious that tobacco is bad for our health, and depending on where you were born, determines how you smoke weed. I was born in the UK and there we make "Spliffs" we use tobacco or cigarettes in joints or spliffs, usually the most part of a cigarette is usually placed as a layer then the weed or hash added, and then the rest of the ciggy added on the top before being "skinned up" (rolled). In the USA and actually all other parts of the world outside of Europe, use none or little tobacco if any.

I was smoking an 8th of weed a day, that's like 3.6g, spread out over say 8 to 10 joints which were always mixed with tobacco. Dam, its dawned now upon me that it wasn't even organic tobacco and that I had never even thought of Organic Tobacco at this stage in life!

With Vaporizers, there is no damaging effects to your health like smoking because there is no combustion happening, nothing is being burnt and so no carbon is being created, you just inhale the fumes of the ganja.

  • Finance.

My friends all said to me that I was stupid to buy something so expensive as it cost 500Gbp back then, but from using this, I could use that 3.6g of weed that I usually smoked for nearly 7 days instead with the volcano, and so I saved the money 7 Fold for the next 8 months. I consumed much less tobacco and hated the taste and smell of it, but reluctantly still smoked a small joint every Friday night. I actually pritty much stopped smoking tobacco for around 8 months and had completely turned into a fan of vapes!
I had to get one for moving around, I like to smoke ganja as if its normal wherever I am and that means I had to look for a portable vape. I first got a Vapir I think it was, it was a good one, I remember I broke it and happily went to get another one as it was so good. Then I came across the magic flight launch box! Wow! For someone who loves simplicity this was perfect for me! this was just the time when I was getting a van to go travel and live in, all very life and mind changing times.

Come Vape With Me!

What im Vaping..

This is the remaining trim from last harvest a mixture of CBD Critical Cure, Mazar and Acapulco gold and ground up its perfect to use in the volcano. Its not as strong as bud, but still very strong! And I have hash, of course! Amnesia Lemon :)

P1040473.JPG

Here in Norway its all about the Hash. The green doesn't last 5 seconds it seems, but back in UK it was all green and terrible hash and so I never really bothered to use hash in the Volcano, unlike this time! The Volcano comes with a filter designed for liquids such as aromatherapy oils ect, but you can use it for hash. Below to the right of a weed filter..

The crumbled Amnesia Lemon hash in the pic Above, is around 0.15g, this is enough for a minimum of SIX bags of vape! And after 2 bags you will be stoned for a good hour even if your a hardcore toker! This is a laughable amount to be expecting to get up to six people feeling high from, but it can. When the time comes and I will need to buy more bags due to over use or damage, then they come available in 10m long rolls that you cut the length as you wish. That's when it gets fun!


Very simply made and looks from outside, but with outstanding quality of workmanship inside.

Above is a cross section view from the side. Lets turn it it on, and make a bag of pure vape! The latest temperature chart I found for the best medicinal quality's said that between 350 and 375f is the correct temp to vape at. I have the Volcano Classic and Not the Volcano Digital because firstly the digital one takes longer to heat up (over a minute if I remember correctly) to temperature, and secondly I like minimalism with technology that I use. The Classic just has a turning dial to set the temp, without having the actual temperature numbers marked on it, but one can find easily the chart as shown to the Left.

First step!

Turn it on, just flick the switch. It takes some time to heat up and so I have a couple of minutes to say that these were designed for anyone to use- anyone as in "user friendly terms" to allow all levels of physical ability's or disabilty's to be able to use it. I cant find the video anymore but I have seen a guy with no hands, be able to use this for his medicine years back, by using his mouth mainly and his head to move bigger parts like the bag.

Its ready, the yellow light in the middle has gone off letting me know its up to temp. Now, I want to show you How efficient these things are and why they are worth investing in

P1040449.JPG

Above is the two parts that sit on top of the Volcano, and you see that perfetic amount of trim leaves there? That's actually enough to get 2 nice bags of vape!

That goes in the chamber and sits on the mesh filter. Then the 2nd part is locked in place on top, which will all then sit at the top of the vaporizer as seen in the second picture.

P1040464.JPG

Two types with two different combinations exist, the classic volcano, with the solid valve or easy valve - (which is what I have here) and the digital one that is also able to have the solid valve or the easy valve setup. At first I was disappointed that the solid valve wasn't really available in the shop in the city and that they only had the easy valve set. I'm actually happier with this easy valve than the solid-valve set due to the simplicity and the chamber don't get blocked like the solid valve system. It comes with 5 bags and 5 mouthpieces and some accessories, which makes it much more sociable, and if people share a house then 5 people can have there own personal bag and mouth piece. The Bags and mouthpiece have been designed very well so that for hygiene reasons the mouthpiece (the black part) is a replaceable part that is pritty much disposable so different people can use them without sharing.

Now its turned on by pressing the green button (its not on in the pic) and you leave it to pump air through for 5 seconds without adding the bag, then just add the bag which clips on securely to the chamber piece which will be collecting the now pumping out vapor.

Remember that measly pile of trim? Here's the first of two bags of vape! German Efficiency at its best there is no doubt they speak German in Agartha!

The effects are superb..

A mate here never had vaped before and the next day after having a bag, he went and got a portable one for himself!
Im staying anon, and so I'll use this video someone else made from PooTube to show you the effects well as it was also his first experience!

If your wanting to use cannabis for whatever reason you choose to choose but are not a smoker, and cant be fucked to cook with it, then go grab a vape! If you have a dry place with electric to live in, then its worth every penny to go get a volcano. Ive been thinking lately that if people vaped a bag or two every day, and THC has been proven to attack cancer cells, then maybe we can prevent cancer in ourselves by including a bag of vape in out daily intake of vitamins and whatever else you take supplement wise, which should be a prevention against cancer?! Makes sense to me anyhow! What does everyone think to that?!

As usual I have to thank the newly formed Canna-Community here on Steemit which I am very happy to be supporting! If your new and haven't found us yet you can just click here @canna-curate and come check us out!

Here's the link to my last post on my grow that's on at the moment, an outdoor one in Norway, green house scrog kind of thing and 20 % way through flowering with light dep!

And here's the link my last article about a banned chemical substance with medicinal benefits which should also, like weed , be made LEGAL.

And here's a funny cool one on how I make smoothies somewhat different to what you think!

Big Love and Abundance!

The volcano is a classic icon for vaping! Love it :)

I’ve got he digital volcano, it’s great for people who come over that don’t like weed bc of the smoke. Very rare that I use it by myself though, I like puffing joints all day (no tobacco!) & the occasional bong hit when I want a punch of strength.

Definitely a healthier alternative to smoke

Hi man! they come with a remote is that correct? imagine a drone that can take the bag to and throw so one never had to move!

I have no remote, but it can be easily placed within arms reach !

Think it’s a house robot maid at that point

I bet you 5steem that these maids exist in 4 years from now

Hey mate, nice post. I'm going to Amsterdam this year and hope to try the vulcano in a cofeeshop. My first vape was the magic flight box, which I bought with the ac power cord, and then I used a bag to simulate the vulcano effect. Worked pretty well. Now I have an arizer air which I love. Back home we never mixed cannabis with tabacco but I used to smoke it anyway. Thanks to vaping it's been 5 years since my last tabacco hit. Cheers!!

Hihi i just wake up and am taking a bag! ,ive smoked like 2gra.s since i got it! My lungs are in shock lol

Ohh.. Vaping in the morning... It's like a dream continuation. Enjoy!

That's awesome, you totally beat me to the punch on my planned Volcano post!

I've had mine for over 9 years now! I have replaced one bowl that broke because of abuse on my part... the savings in medicine and the health benefits - priceless.

I just hope they make 'em like they used to. I know many products go downhill in quality over time. My advice is to go old-school and forget the digital display, less to break in the future. Easy valve is definitely the way to go.

Ah leave it a week and all will be forgotten of this post! Looking very forward to reading other peoples reviews, I actually went in search and only found a very cool post on a new vap for 400usd that can vape concentrates aswell! Totally lost where the post is now though and don't think I resteemed it DOH!

My advice is to go old-school and forget the digital display, less to break in the future. Easy valve is definitely the way to go.

I concur!

Pleasure to have you along sir!

I've had a Crafty for about 3 years which I'd thoroughly recommend for a smooth and tasty vapor. If it ever breaks I might graduate to the Volcano.

Ive had several, but not the crafty :) what really does the volcano justice is the efficiency of it from the tinyiest amount of material, and that none is ever lost because it all goes in the bag!

Great to have you drop by dude, big love!

hey Friend. don't mean to be spamming, but I'm desperate to get this message out and expose the sociopath that wants to destroy my life. I hope you don't mind. If you do, I will delete it:

Hi man I read late lastnight that post and smashed the resteem for you ☺ if you and your horse want to move somewhere then let me know yeh?

thank you so much! I'm thinking about Portugal. This will take a couple of years I guess... also depends on the mood of the retard judging me... after I can appeal... We'll see if they will be looking for some revenge for calling them by their real name "sociopathic order followers". I will not pretend I respect them anymore.
If they will deliver what they promised, the "machete", I will go earlier probably, but not without the fight. I invested 3 years and 15K in my land. It would be a shame to loose it. I am trying to file a complaint with defensordepueblo for abuse of authority... but once you are on the war path with sociopaths... I really do not feel comfortable looking over my shoulder

Yeh portugal is a good bet!

the most free free-range-slavery out there :)

Next time guardia come just tell them you will go to portugal, they will mostlikely become less harsh and even maybe the court case will vanish.. When we were in spain and they started getting pissy over documents , we would just say we are all driving to portugal, and they would just tell us to go then.. and when in portugal we always say we are going to spain and that the quickest way to have an easy solution.. And tha hard solution is alot of stress.. Its hard I know, to build a home and then have to leave! But we are more than THINGS , houses , pieces of land, *MONEY.. (I get the feeling that you know this !) If I was you id be so tempted just to rent the place out, and go with that horse to portugal with minimum belongings :) wow , i really will do a horse trip before im dead!

or... they will put me in jail for 3 months, as they can... because I am a "flight risk". Last year they told me "don't try to leave Spain now".
They probably think I'm some homeless dude occupying this land...
Bigoted bootlicking asswipes!

Like I will drop everything and run because some sociopathic, useless idiot is threatening me...
Once they came to see my horse because asshole neighbor wants to get rid of me so he can use my pasture... they saw the horse behaving like a dog. beautiful fur etc. shocked! they were told it was maltratado. I saved this horse when it was starving... and I do not see why should I get any licences etc. the sergant said "I will let you off this time, because I like your face".
It was over a year ago when I really tried hard to be very nice no matter what and was just saying "sorry and thank you" for everything.
These days are gone now. After last invasion, if I will hear any patronizing tone from an unethical sociopath, I will tell him "thank you, but I prefer women, and I do not think it is in your job description to be disrespectful, so please if you want to threaten me, let me record it. Give me a fine and good bye". Or I will just not reply to anything they say and tell them to come back with court order and I will talk only to court.
I have no respect for order followers. There is no better time than now to oppose tyranny. I can be a sacrificial soul if it helps others.
Fuck imposed authority. I am not a slave. They can crucify me. I really do not care about me. My mum will be sad, but I prepared them for it.
My egoistical life ended with the bike accident. I was sure I died.
So... I am not afraid of death. What else could they do to me?

You are awesome :D

Recording is our weapon, and they fucking hate that!! and its really our only alliby when your in the bush with just you or a few and lots of fucking filth. When will they just all DIE?!
Got to sleep now, its just pissed it down! Bout time :)
