Vaporizers work by heating cannabis to a temperature that releases active compounds like THC, CBD and CBN, in the form of vapor, without burning the plant material. There are two primary heating methods used in vaporizers: Convection Heating: Hot air passes through the cannabis, evenly vaporizing the material without direct contact. This method tends to produce smoother, more flavorful vapor. Conduction Heating: The cannabis is heated by direct contact with a hot surface. Conduction vaporizers heat up faster but may require stirring to ensure even vaporization. Both methods avoid combustion, meaning no harmful toxins are released, resulting in a cleaner, healthier experience.
