Figured with the last few threads inspiring me to try out a dry herb vape. And I realized I knew nothing about it. But reading the manual and getting it going was easy. And I just experimented a bit and with temps. And apparently I landed in a pretty good sweet spot.

I will share some more of my experience, but I would like to hear some others more experienced takes on their usages, tips, tricks, favorite temps and getting the most out of it. Thanks!

    I don’t even know what a dosing capsule is. The research I’ve done on this was read a few threads here so far :) Thankfully much of my intuition was close enough to get me started. I guess I’m not a total dumbass yet.

      Many brands (including healthy rips) sell “dosing capsules” which are essentially re-usable metal “pods” that you can fill with dry herb. Then when on the go you can easily pop out a spent/cooked capsule, and insert a fresh one easily without fumbling with a bunch of dry herb in your pocket. Honestly of all the brands I’ve tried, HealthyRips has one of the best dosing capsules on the market - durable, high quality, and easy to open (unlike some other brands which will bend/dent easily when trying to open a used dirty capsule)

      Dosing capsules add some thermal mass so they do heat up a bit slower, but they keep your oven (and screen) cleaner, and they make reloading easier - and they seem to do a better job of uniformly cooking the herb without the need to stir (once you let it get fully heated up!). But as I mentioned, you can use an empty one as a spacer so you can vape 1/10th as much as usual.

      Be sure to play with temp stepping. I find the rogue works great at low temps like 300F and slowly sip away, increasing temp 5F or 10F every other minute.

      And be sure to pick up the water-tool and watertool adapter if you haven’t already - vaporbonging with the rogue is another fun thing you can do
