Buyers Guide to Volcano Vaporizer Bags

5 Reasons Why Volcano Vaporizer Bags are the Best

If you are skeptical on these claims, I get it. Cannabis is infamously understudied and the modern vaporization products have been on the market for less than 30 years. And look, that’s all true, but hear me out. There have been some studies and the results are tough to ignore. 

Vaporizer bags get you more high than smoking

No joke. According to a 2018 study (Spindle, 2018) vaping cannabis allows your blood to absorb about 2x more THC. 

In their study, the test subjects were delivered a 10-mg dose of cannabis either vaporized or smoked. The researchers then tested the blood to see the THC content. The smoking group delivered 3.8 ng/mL of THC, compared the 7.5 ng/mL produced by the vaporizing group. 

This higher THC concentration is statistically correlated with increased pharmacodynamic effects (a fancy word for being high. In their own words, “Greater impairment was observed for vaporized cannabis compared with smoked cannabis.”

So when it comes down to it, choosing vaporization as the method of choice will get you higher, saving you money every session as you will burn through significantly less flower. 

Any volcano owner would tell you this. We only really burn through flower quickly when were rolling Js for the road. For the home sesh, about half a joint worth of flower will sit you down like its your first time getting high. 

But, this is only one reason. We’ve got more. 

Using a Vaporizer Bag is Easier on Your Body

Proven? No. Bull shit? Unlikely. 

Vaporizer bags are the best choice for a regular cannabis users because small changes to habits can have a big effect on health in the long run. Hear me out.

Although long term effects of vaporizing herbs is not well studied, almost all scientific studies agree that vaporization is much less dangerous than smoking. Here’s why: with pure herb vaporization, you are not ingesting chemical filled rolling papers or combusted plant matter. Remember your cousins grimy bowl you refused to hit last Thanksgiving? The tar that ruins the sexiest glass bowl is even less sexy in your lungs. This is without even considering the paper.  

Volcano Balloons don’t build up any of that tar because the plant matter is heated, not burned. Over time, the bag may slightly change color (less so with Best Boons high grade nylon tubing), but it is NOTHING like cleaning out a bong. This is better for the lungs and you can feel it. 

…and that’s just the long term benefit. 

But think short term. Ripping a bong is literally painful. Its like a shot of vodka, people who like the feeling are either lying or crazy. For first time users, this is a big turnoff and often leads to them tapping out before they feel the effects.

Using a vaporizer bag allows the vapor to cool off before entering the body. This eliminates the risk of burning lungs and seriously cuts down on harsh coughs. It gives new users time to ease into the experience without worry. 

This makes using a vaporizer bag is the best way for a non smoker to enjoy cannabis for the first time and the best option for hosting smoke sessions with guests. 

All Vaporized Herb Can Be Used for Edibles

Say What?  

Not only are you saving money on papers, lighters, and future health bills… you can have unlimited edibles on deck. Talk about recycling. This is literally the reason I bought my first cano.

With a volcano vaporizer, all of your flower can be both vaporized and eaten. When you heat the herb to vaporization, you begin the decarbing process that is the first step to making edibles. Simply save your leftover plant matter and heat together with coconut oil or butter to create a base for some tasty (and powerful) treats. There are many online resources that can help you get started cooking with cannabis oil, and listing my favorite recipes should be a blog in itself so I’ll move on.

Vaporizer Bags can hold vapor for up to 45 minutes

With a pre-sealed volcano vaporizer bag, I can enjoy cannabis like never before. It is perfect for active sessions like making dinner or doing yoga. It is also great for movie nights and work grinds. 

When having a social smoke sesh, longevity is key. We all have that friend who will go on a 2 minute rant with a burning J in their hand before taking their hit. With boons, you never stare at that burning joint thinking to yourself, “what the F*** is wrong with this kid.” Thanks to the 2x boost in THC per hit, you can just ignore his insanity in peace and hit the boon when it comes your way. Oh yeah, forget about burning fingers on roaches. 

The longevity allows you to enjoy in a whole new way. I have made boons 15 feet tall (only possible with Best Boons) for a Rick and Morty marathon and got schwifty in a way that some (not I) would call heroic.  

Best Boons sells rolls up to 30 feet, which means you could put my story to shame. But of course, if you hit 30, I will be forced to push the limits much further… don’t challenge me. (But if you do tag us bc that’s epic)

Vaporizer Bags don’t stink up your home

Compared to blunts, joints and bongs, vaporizers produce significantly less odor. 

This is because you are not burning heavy paper with thick smoke. In fact, your not really burning anything at all. No more burning the couch or your bed sheets. With fire free ingestion, feel free to enjoy anywhere. Snuggling into bed with a boon is no short of a miracle of science. 

In a 2014 study, “better taste and no smoke smell” are two of the key differentiators between vaporizing and smoking cannabis. This is crucial for people who live in apartment buildings that do not allow smoking. Vaporizers are courteous to your neighbors and protect you from eviction. I have been the tenant who has received their fair share of “stop smoking blunts” notices and switching to the volcano literally ended the complaints.
