Default vaporizer question

Hey all,
I just got a vaporbros vaporizer and at first it was working great. However, after a few weeks the hits started tasting like ass and taking a lot more work to get. The vaporizer seems to be fine (nothing is clogged). The only thing I can think of is that my weed is much drier now than before when I first started smoking this batch. Do you guys think this could be a reason? Also whats the best way to rehydrate bud. I put it in a humid bathroom with the shower on for an hour but that didnt do much. Could I just add a drop of water to the bud before I vape? Thanks

Dry bud shouldn't have the effect you describe. Dry bud actually vapes faster because with moist bud all the water has to come off as steam (bleeding off the heat) before the temperature gets high enough to vaporize THC.

It sounds to me like you need to clean the whip and the screen. Perhaps you'll need to replace the screen. If the vapors taste bad it's very likely that you're using too high a temperature. Dry bud needs a lower temperature than moist bud. Powdery bud needs a lower temperature than shredded bud.

that makes sense because I started with the temp all the way up when it was moist and I still have been using the temp all the way up. So I guess I need to lower it now that its dried some (so complicated haha). Thanks a lot Oh how far do u turn the dial on the vaporbro vaporizer (ex) like 3/4 of the way or 1/2 the way) thanks

There's no set position. How hot you want it depends on how moist and how finely ground the weed is. Dryer ==> lower. Finer ==> lower. You just have to "feel" your way by trial and error.

I use settings from 12'o'clock to 2'o'clock. On my VB, "off" is 5'o'clock and full "on" is 3'o'clock.
