1. Choose Your Device
Before engaging in vaping CBD, tech-savvy individuals have to be familiar with the devices to choose the right one. There are many options to choose from, including:
CBD vapes: these vapes are easy to use and less inexpensive because of their small sizes and lightweight. The CBD vape juice is filled into the powerful vapes and combined with a coil and battery. The devices are disposable, meaning they have limited puff and need to be replaced.
CBD mods: these mods are similar to cartridges but larger than pens. They come in two options, disposable and refillable. Mods create a better experience than pens due to the size, power, and switching function between nicotine and CBD.
CBD e-cigarettes: e-cigarettes are similar to traditional cigarettes but with slim cylindrical vape tanks for CBD e-liquid. The tanks hold about 0.5 mL to 1 mL of vape juice and are less expensive than other vape devices.
2. Choose Your CBD E-Liquid
After getting the suitable device, the next step is selecting the e-liquid. Different varieties of CBD e-liquid exist in flavors and strengths. The e-liquid is generally made of four ingredients, such as:
Vegetable Glycerine (VG) for soybeans, coconut, or palm oil. Propylene Glycol (PG) is used in medicine, food, and more. Flavoring is added to improve the taste. CBD itself can be isolated or broad-spectrum.
However, it is okay to test CBD e-liquid for THC, impurities, or harmful ingredients. For example, CBD e-liquid considers other ingredients like propylene glycol or vegetable glycerin as impurities in the juice and may be harmful to some individuals. So, it is essential to read the label to be sure of what you’re buying.
3. Fill Your Device
The next step after choosing an e-liquid is to fill the device. Some devices are built with a tinny opening for refilling, while others may need to be disassembled. To refil such a device:
1. Disable the tank and remove the coil.
2. Refill the e-liquid into the tank while keeping the coil horizontal and using your fingers to turn the coil to refill each hole with a dropper cap.
3. Ensure the juice does not pass the horizontal mark on the vape tank.
4. Reassemble the vaporizer by screwing in the top connector, mouthpiece, and coil.
After refilling the tank, keep the vape pen for 3 minutes or more, giving the coil time to soak in the liquid before use.
4. Prime Your Coil
Priming a coil allows the vape juice to reach the coil wick after installing the coil on the device and refilling the tank. A coil is like a cotton ball when dropped in water. It takes some time before the cotton ball becomes saturated with liquid. The coil also faced the same process. The coil contains air when it is not soaked with e-liquid. You can push the coil down to soak appropriately to avoid excessive burning or ruin. By forcing it down, the coil quickly gets saturated with juice to provide the best possible flavor when using it and prevent it from burning out quickly.
5. Start Vaping!
After refilling and priming your device, the next phase is to start vaping. Again, taking the process slowly with a puff through the mouthpiece is recommended. As for newbies, start with short drags until you can get the full feeling of CBD. After that, you can switch to a higher VG e-liquid or use a lower wattage setting to suit your desires.
