If you're a vaper, you know that aclean vape is essential for getting the best flavour and performance out of your device.

Whether you’ve just got accustomed to dry herb vaping or your routine maintenance has become a little too lax, within a month or two, yourvaping residue can leave your experience far from optimal, meaning your flower doesn’t pack the same punch. In this blog post, we'll discusshow to clean weed vapes and provide tips on keeping your device in great condition. 

Why a clean vape is an efficient vape

While your dry herb vape is user-friendly and needs less maintenance than other flower smoking styles, it doesn’t mean you’re free from a little TLC. There are many reasons why you shouldclean your vape, including:

• More space to fill your chamber — If you’ve left your device to accumulatevaping residue, you’re leaving space behind that could be used to pack in more flower, leaving you with a smaller and less satisfying vape.
• Ensures the purity of your strain — Different strains are best vaped at different temperatures to release certain terpenes and other compounds. Not only will you be mixing strains of different flavours, but you could also be puffing on a burnt taste.
• Enjoy the full hit — The build-up ofvaping residue can prevent your flower from being evenly vaporized, resulting in you wasting your herb and experiencing a poor and restricted draw.
• Maintains a hygienic operation — Debris is a breeding ground for bacteria to grow — if you’re yet toclean your vape, you're inhaling your flower and bacteria with each puff.

How often should youclean out your vape tank

To ensure a smooth, lasting and high-performing operation, we recommend emptying the chamber, wicking away larger debris between each session with a brush, and conducting a thorough deep clean either weekly or between vaping on different strains.

4. Using a cloth soaked with isopropyl alcohol, wipe and sanitise all areas — you might also want to apply it to the pipe cleaner to pass through the mouthpiece.

5. For any non-electrical parts showing signs of stubbornvaping residue that is seemingly impossible to remove, soak it in a shallow bath of isopropyl alcohol for 30 minutes, brush and rinse with clean water.
