Real talk: sometimes my stash runs out and I want something to fill the habit if nothing else. No stoner is proud of scraping the barrel, but sometimes we do. At least I do, cant speak for everyone.
Lately I have been revaping ABV while waiting for the re-up. I usually try saving it up for oil making but tbh ABV cannaoil doesnt do much for me so its not really worth the oil or a full day of processing to make it.
It definitely doesnt taste great. I can only get like one appreciable hit off a full dynavap tip. Running the vapor through water is almost a must to help cool and mute the taste. Its better than nothing, but its not super pleasant.
I'm reminded of my teenage days with spoon pipes and combustion.
IDK how common this is but my dumbass stoner friends taught me how to scrape up the black tar that formed in the spoons into a 'res ball' and smoke that shit. UGH it was so nasty tasting especially raw dogging the butane until the ball lit up. I get the sensation to gag thinking about it. Boy did it get you high though.
Compared to that, re-vaping ABV is a enjoyable cake walk. Even occasionally kissing the dragon is better tasting than butane and res balls.
Thank you for changing my life, vaporizer technology. Even at my most bottom-barrel scraping I will never have to taste fucking butane or choke on tar carcinogens again.
If canna oil isn’t doing much you might not control the temps properly through the process or going too far with the temps while vaping. I was tired of getting very hit or miss results until I switched from pan to ham pressure cooker so that I could make sure oil was between 70-90 degree Celsius at all times. My last brownies made people leave planetary orbit.
