A quick heads-up on how things work here – I occasionally use affiliate links for products and services I genuinely use, test, and recommend. Clicking these links and making a purchase might earn me a small commission at absolutely no extra cost to you. These commissions simply help me continue my passion for experimenting, sharing honest insights, and keeping the gears turning on this site. Every recommendation comes from my own hands-on use. Thanks for joining me on this creative journey! Now, let’s get back to the good stuff!
Concentrates
To use concentrates, you have options.
Option 1 – Fill the tip halfway with ground herb, add a small amount of concentrate (rosin works well) flattened into a small “coin,” then top with more ground herb.
Option 2 / 3 – you can use a Dynacoil or Vape Wool to hold the concentrate. For the Dynacoil, insert the Dynacoil into the tip. Then either warm the base of the bowl portion of the tip slightly so it melts the concentrate or apply the concentrate as a liquid to absorb better. With Vape Wool, spread a small wad of the wool out in front of you. Then place the concentrate in the center, bundle it into a ball, and insert it into the tip like you would with herb.

Dry Herb (Ground or Buds)
For dry herb, grind the buds to a medium/coarse consistency for optimal vaporization. Use your Dynavap like a straw to suck up the ground herb, filling the tip without overfilling it. Lightly tamp down the herb so that it’s lightly packed and doesn’t peak out from the tip – airflow through the tip shouuld be maintained if done properly.
No grinder? The serrations on the Dynavap tip are designed to let you “chunk off” pieces directly into the tip. Keep adding chunks until it’s full and lightly packed but not overflowing — it couldn’t be more convenient!
Heating
Next, let’s explore heating options! There are several ways to heat your Dynavap and below I’ll outline each one. For new users, I highly recommend starting with either a single flame torch or an induction heater, like the Wand. Personally, I prefer induction heaters for their consistency and ease of use.
The Wand Induction Heater
The Wand Induction Heater is my go-to device for heating my Dynavap because it’s incredibly convenient — there’s no need to spin your device or aim a flame. With the right adapters, you can simply insert your Dynavap tip to the set depth, turn on the wand, and wait for the click. The Wand charges via USB-C, uses 18650 batteries (replacement recommendations coming soon), and is silent. It’s my top choice – especially outdoors where wind can interfere with flames
Single Flame Torch
The single flame torch is tied for my top choice for heating a Dynavap, as it heats the device more gradually. This gives you better control over the temperature and reduces the risk of combustion.
For flame length, I suggest adjusting it so the flame spans the length of the cap (from the “digger outter” tip to the top of the cap). You should see a brighter, blue “base” flame, with the opaque tip barely touching the cap while you spin it (unless using an Armored Cap or FMJ accessory, where spinning isn’t necessary). This technique helps avoid scorching by evenly distributing heat.
