Dry herb vape

A dry herb vape is a vaporizer engineered to heat loose cannabis flower rather than oil or concentrate. The user loads ground flower into an oven or chamber; the device heats it to a user-selected temperature — commonly 350–430°F — releasing cannabinoids and terpenes as vapor. Because the temperature stays below the combustion point, plant matter is not set on fire, and users often describe the effect as cleaner-tasting and less harsh than smoke, with a sometimes different subjective experience attributed to differential vaporization of cannabinoids and terpenes at different setpoints. Heating method is the key design distinction. Conduction devices place flower against a heated surface; they heat quickly and cost less but can scorch material unevenly and benefit from stirring. Convection devices pull hot air through the flower; they heat more evenly and preserve terpenes but cost more, take longer to warm, and consume more battery. Hybrid devices combine both. Used flower — called ABV or AVB ("already been vaped") — retains residual cannabinoids and is often repurposed in edibles. → See also: Flower (Part 3), Vaporizer. ---
