The VaporGenie: The worlds first vaporizing pipe!

The VaporGenie vaporizer pipe is dramatically safer and more pleasant to use than a conventional combustion pipe. It vaporizers your herbal blends or tobacco instead of burning them, thereby greatly reducing tar and particulate inhalation.

The VaporGenie vaporizing pipe gently heats your tobacco so that it does not burn. Tar and toxic smoke are greatly reduced. The VaporGenie pipe provides super-smooth vapor. There is no coughing or burning throat. It feels like you are inhaling warm, flavored air.

  • The VaporGenie pipe is used with a lighter and is completely portable.

  • The VaporGenie pipe is truly portable. It fits in your pocket.

  • The VaporGenie pipe is not electronic. It is simple to use and reliable.

  • The VaporGenie pipe is guaranteed against product defects for life.

  • The VaporGenie pipe is a high-quality, durable product that will provide you with many years of satisfying vaporization.

 
 

What Exactly is Vaporization?

All herbs and plant matter contain oils, flavors and other desired compounds. Examples include nicotine in tobacco and terpenes in many other herbs (such as mint). Tobaccos often have flavor compounds added. Vaporization is the process of heating these compounds to convert them to vapor so they can be inhaled. It's the same thing as boiling. Typically, these desirable compounds boil at about 225-375 degrees Fahrenheit.

In conventional combustion smoking, the tobacco is burned and the heat from burning vaporizes the flavor compounds. But burning also creates toxic tar and carcinogens. The byproducts of burning are the most dangerous chemicals found in smoke. Fortunately, these byproducts are only created at temperatures above about 500 degrees Fahrenheit. So, if tobacco is heated to about 225-375 F, but no hotter, the desirable compounds are released, and the dangerous byproducts of burning are never created. That's vaporization.Vaporization is healthier, tastier and more pleasant than conventional smoking.

 

How does the VaporGenie Provide Vaporization?

The VaporGenie pipe relies on a totally new concept to provide the 'sweet-spot' vaporization temperatures of 225-375 degrees.

The secret to the VaporGenie pipe is the patented flame filter. The flame filter is located above your tobacco (between the tobacco and flame). In the pictures, the flame filter is located within the spherical wood part. The flame filter mixes heat from the flame with cold, ambient air. The flame filter is specially designed to mix the flame and cool air and provide vaporization temperatures.

The flame filter is also specially designed to withstand the flame heat for many years. It is made of an extremely durable and nontoxic ceramic: silicon carbide.

 

VaporGenie Construction

The wood of the VaporGenie pipe is finely sanded smooth and is sealed with natural a food grade varnish that reveals beautiful wood grain patterns. There are no glues, adhesives other toxic chemicals used in the VaporGenie pipe. Almost all components of the VaporGenie pipe are proudly made in the USA (about 75% on a dollar cost basis).

The ceramic filter in the VaporGenie pipe is made of high-purity silicon carbide, one of the most inert and heat-resistant ceramics known. Silicon carbide is made of only silicon and carbon, in a diamond crystal structure. Silicon carbide does not contain metals and so will not contaminate your vapor or create metallic flavors. The ceramic filter does not burn, fracture, or deteriorate. It will never need replacement.

All the metal parts in the VaporGenie pipe are either stainless steel or chrome plated for inertness. The VaporGenie pipe comes with a stainless steel screen and stainless steel bowl.

The length (from mouthpiece to the center of the bowl) of the Maple VG is 4.5 inches, and the length of the Handcarved pipes is 5.7 inches.

 

How is the VaporGenie used?

The VaporGenie vaporizing pipe is used in a manner very similar to a conventional pipe. That's what makes it so easy to use.

First, the VaporGenie pipe is loaded with tobacco, and then the flame filter is screwed onto the pipe. It is important to use loose, shredded tobacco; do not pack.

Then, you inhale from the pipe while supplying flame to the flame filter. The flame filter automatically protects the tobacco from burning. You control the exact temperature by adjusting the amount of flame applied and speed of inhalation. It is important to not touch the ceramic filter with the flame.

By paying attention to the flavors and heat inhaled, you know the temperature, and can adjust flame application accordingly. Experienced VaporGenie pipe users can keep the air stream temperature to within a range of about ± 30F or better. This is sufficient temperature control for vaporization.

Since the VaporGenie pipe is designed for use with flame, the vapor is not as clean as vapor from electronic vaporizers that are properly used (electronic vaporizers often cause burning and produce smoke when used improperly). With the VaporGenie pipe, flame exhaust is inhaled. However, most users do not notice the difference (lighter flames or match flames are much cleaner than smoke). And unlike electronic vaporizers, the VaporGenie vaporizing pipe is as portable as a conventional pipe, is less expensive, requires no heat-up time, and is more reliable. There are no electronic gizmos that can break in the VaporGenie pipe.

We recommend using an electronic ignition lighter instead of a conventional 'flint' lighter. Electronic ignition lighters do not produce 'flint' dust, which contains rare earth metal dust and is toxic. We also recommend using the Ital Hempwick, a hemp twine saturated with beeswax. See this page for product information about our electronic lighters and the Ital Hempwick.

The VaporGenie pipe is an excellent choice for people just starting out with vaporization, and for people who own an electronic vaporizer, but would like to vaporize away from home.
