I am often asked which vaporizer I can recommend and whether they are available in my online shop???
The selection of devices is large and it is not easy to work your way through the jungle of offers. After all, not many are suitable for vaporizing medicinal plants because only a few have a temperature range of 100 to 235 degrees.
In a video (see below) I have compiled my experiences with vaporizing medicinal plants and give you criteria on what you should pay attention to when buying.
I have also listed the devices that I like to use in the video description.
However, I do not want this to be understood as an advertisement for the products, because I would like to reserve the right to try them out “neutrally” and that is only possible if I do not have to fulfil any advertising contracts.
But why don’t I sell devices?
Firstly, because the legal situation in Germany imposes a lot of restrictions on the sale of tobacco/drug products... and unfortunately, no distinction is made as to what kind of device is involved. Every vaporizer, regardless of whether it is for tobacco or medicinal herbs, automatically falls under this category.
And secondly, because there are enough other providers who cover this area and provide you with good equipment and are much more competent in this than I am 😉
So I prefer to focus on deepening my knowledge of the effects of medicinal plants through vaporization and offer you the medicinal plants in vaporizer quality.
This is my passion and I enjoy being able to share it with many of you!

The criteria for choosing your vaporizer:
- Specially designed for use with herbs and medicinal plants
- Temperature at least between 100 – 220 degrees
- Avoid plastic
- Which heating method suits me:
a) Conduction:
- Heating the chamber, rapid inhalation, as the plant material evaporates quickly
- preferably in handheld devices
- more steam - less taste
- fresh plant material can also be vaporized
b) Convection:
- Air flow through the chamber
- preferably in tabletop devices
- less steam – more taste
- sometimes more complex cleaning
Especially for handheld devices:
- Battery system (charging time, replaceable, performance)
- Refilling with capsules on the go?
- Heating time
- Size
- Ease of use
- Timer 5-10 mins
Devices I used in the video:
- Vepeble Wolke premium (with two different mouthpieces)
- Zen Vaporizer Silus Pro, conduction, with two batteries, capsules possible
- Arizer Air Max, Hybrid - Desktop vaporizer: Arizer XQ2, convection
