Tips Titanium

[Riverrat]

Anyone notice coughing more when using titanium stems, bowls etc. ?

I do believe there are those whose taste buds are sensitve to it.

Would appreciate any feedback or links on topic.

Spoke briefly with Vgoodiez.

Seems possible that the heat soaking performance of ti could be the cause of more coughing when titanium is used.

I nave severe reactions any time I use it now.
Starts with a blinding migraine about 15 minutes after using it and ends with projectile vomiting and a long nap.
Don't really care to use it much myself.

I use the titanium tip on my Ditanium for flower
I have to let the tip heat up to get a decent vape
Is it increased temps that are causing the discomfort?

It could be. Or it could be a form of allergic reaction like @arb is experiencing.

Arb, have a friend who claims the same ... will only use vapes with glass path way.

..... Is it increased temps that are causing the discomfort?

This is what I'm thinking. Simply because they do seem to be associated.

Now this isn't something I came up with. Don't remember where I picked it up.
Using as hot tap water as you can get in your vape glass will help tremendously with throat irritation from vaping

It does seem counter intuitive to put hot water in a water pipe

To my recollection... which can be a bit sketch lol.... it was @lwien quite a few years back who talked about that technique on FC. It actually is a very soothing way to vape.

Back to titanium... I have noticed a marked difference dabbing with a Ti nail and a quartz nail. I prefer the quartz. Using titanium nails is much harsher. And it probably has to do with the heat retention qualities imo. Perhaps the retention 'cooks' the product a bit more since it retains heat longer?

I have similar experiences with Ti and quartz dabbing
And find the flavour a little muted with Ti vapes (Flowerpot, Herbo and Dynavap tips) in comparison with my other vapes.

I picked up another glass wand for the Ditanium in case I wanted to ditch the titanium tip
The nozzle for the Ditanium is titanium so either way my vapor is going through metal
I'm still a little to new to all of this to offer anything but anecdotal info
My two harsh experiences were some flower combusting (packed to much and did not turn the temp control down after some diamonds)and the temp being too high for some rosin
I love rosin
