Product Highlight: Cannabis Vape: How Does Vaping Work? Here Are Basic Tips for Choosing Your Vape

Fernway Vape (1g Blueberry Cake Vape Cartridge) - Available at New England Harvest Dispensary in Clinton, MA

Welcome to the future of enjoying cannabis: vaping. You’ve probably seen many people using vape pens to enjoy tobacco products, but you might be surprised to find out that you can use cannabis in the same way.

Whether you have been smoking cannabis for a very long time or you’re new to everything cannabis, it’s not unusual to be unfamiliar with vapes. While this technology isn’t new, people who have been rolling their own joints for decades might think it’s out of this world.

We here at New England Harvest want everyone to be able to enjoy cannabis in the best possible way, and you can only do that if you have all the information necessary to make an informed choice. Let’s take a look at vapes, their various components, and how they differ from other cannabis products.

What are vapes?

Cannabis vapes are essentially small convection furnaces that use electricity to heat up your cannabis. It doesn’t actively burn or ignite flower/dry herb — rather, it heats up extracted cannabis oil or concentrate to release the compounds that you inhale without fire.
The biggest difference in vapes is the use of distillate vs. live resin/rosin. Distillate is usually reduced after the flower has been harvested and frozen for future extraction. Live resin/rosin uses the entirety of the plant – creating a stronger cannabis taste – and is immediately extracted after harvest. It has no frozen period, so it might seem “fresher.”

While many vapes create a very recognizable cannabis smell, others are more discreet, which is a potential benefit for vape users. Additionally, some vapes are flavored, so if you are the type of person who does not like the terpene-heavy taste of cannabis, you can opt for a different experience. Terpenes derived from other plants and fruits provide a sweeter or fruity flavor.

Vape components

Vapes are extremely straightforward machines and, for the most part, easy to use. They come in several forms: disposables with battery attached as an all-in-one unit that is thrown away after the liquid is depleted; or a disposable cartridge (battery not included) that is replaced after the concentrate is gone. There are also USB-charged options.

The primary components you interact with on each vape device are the mouthpiece, the heating elements, the charging port, and the buttons. Some vapes have different variables you can manipulate, such as air flow or temperature settings, which usually require additional buttons.

Different temperature settings release different levels of terpenes in the cannabis so you can get the maximal flavor and aroma that you want.

Finally, the mouthpiece works exactly as you would expect it to — this is where you inhale your cannabis for consumption. Many vapes begin heating as soon as they sense you inhaling, while others require you to press the button to begin the heating process.

How vapes differ from other cannabis products

The closest approximation to vaping would be smoking, and one of the biggest upsides to vaping over using loose flower is convenience. Vaping does not require you to measure out and combust flower — the cannabis product inside is already measured out and works with a touch of a button. A comparable experience might be cannabis prerolls; all the fun with none of the work!

Cannabis edibles are also highly convenient and discreet but deliver a different experience than vaping or smoking. Some people prefer edibles while other people prefer to inhale their cannabis. Try both to find your perfect experience.
