Alright, folks, let’s dive into my latest adventure with the Flowerpot B1. Now, I’ve been around the block a few times when it comes to vaping, and I gotta say, the hype around these ball vapes had me curious. So, I decided to take the plunge and see what all the fuss was about.
First off, I went with the Flowerpot B1 infuser, paired it with the Shovelhead bowl, and grabbed the Auber controller. I did a ton of digging around, and this setup kept popping up as the top dog in the ball vape world. It wasn’t cheap, but hey, you get what you pay for, right?
Setting it all up was a bit of a learning curve, I won’t lie. There are a lot of parts, and it’s not exactly plug-and-play. But after a few YouTube videos and some trial and error, I had the thing assembled and ready to roll. I filled the titanium cylinder with those little ruby balls – they look pretty cool, I must admit. Those balls are the key, They heat up like crazy but also let the air flow through to, you know, get that air all toasty. That’s what cooks your herb.
The First Hit
Now for the moment of truth. I loaded up the Shovelhead bowl with some finely ground herb, set the Auber controller to my desired temperature (I started low, around 600F), and took my first hit. Holy moly, folks, this thing is a beast! The vapor production was insane, unlike anything I’d experienced with other vapes.
The flavor? Top-notch. Clean, pure, and potent. It’s definitely a different experience than your typical dry herb vape. It felt closer to a dab, to be honest, but without the harshness. It was smooth, flavorful, and packed a serious punch. I tried to change the ball, the quartz balls are just wild and hit the herb perfectly.
The High
- Immediate Effects: The high hit me fast and hard. Within minutes, I felt a wave of relaxation wash over me.
- Intensity: This is definitely a heavy hitter. Not for the faint of heart or newbies.
- Duration: The high lasted a good while, longer than I’m used to with other vapes.
Things to know
These ball vapes, they get HOT. Like, really hot. I learned the hard way that you gotta be careful not to touch anything while it’s heated up or even right after. And about the hot air, it can be a bit much on your lungs if you’re not careful. It’s not dangerous, but it can irritate your throat and lungs if you go too hard. Just take it slow and find your sweet spot.
I experimented with different temperatures, ball sizes, and airflow settings. The B1, with those 4mm quartz balls, had a really open airflow, almost too open for my liking. But I found that by adjusting the grind size and packing the bowl just right, I could fine-tune the draw to my preference. After weeks of tweaking, I’ve got it dialed in perfectly. The flavor, the clouds, the high—it’s all on point. It’s like the perfect storm of vaping goodness.
Final Thoughts
So, is the Flowerpot B1 the best ball vape of 2024? In my humble opinion, it’s definitely up there. It’s a powerful, flavorful, and customizable device that delivers an unparalleled vaping experience. It’s not the cheapest option out there, and it’s not the most beginner-friendly, but if you’re a seasoned vaper looking for the ultimate setup, this might just be your holy grail.
It’s a bit of an investment, and there’s a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it’s a game-changer. Just remember to respect the heat, take it slow, and enjoy the ride.
This is just my two cents, of course. Everyone’s preferences are different, but I’m happy to share my experience with the Flowerpot B1. Happy vaping, everyone!
