Sutra Explains: Cartridge Pre-Heating

Are you a fan of your cartridge vaporizers pre-heat option? Or have you held off on touching it as if it were a haunted doll in your basement? No matter your current opinion on cartridge pre-heating, we felt that someone should finally clear the air on this much talked about feature.

That’s why in this Sutra Vape Explainer we have answered all the most common questions about pre-heating and given you a guide on how to properly use this mode to the fullest, all without overdoing it.

What Is Pre-Heating?

Much like readying your oven for a frozen pizza, pre-heating is a function included on many vaporizers that slowly warms your cartridge for a certain duration of time (often 10s) before letting you know your “pre-heated” hit is ready.

What this does is instead of flash heating your oils, this provides a more gradual warming where your cartridge is exposed to temperatures not hot enough for vaporizing. Thus when you subsequently use your vaporizer, you will get a hit that’s already cloud the ground running.

How Does Pre-Heating Affect My Vaping?

So what’s all the fuss about this slow pre-heating? Well it turns out that when you prepare your cartridge this way the resulting cloud is fuller, more potent, and is produced much quicker.

Since your cartridge has been already revved up from the first moment you draw from your vaporizer you will immediately get a full blown blast of a hit. No having to wait a while until it starts flowing, when you pre-heat a cartridge you are hitting the fast track.

Not only that, but thanks to the pre-heating you’ll notice you get a much bigger and subsequently more potent cloud from your vaporizer. Thus pre-heating is essentially super charging your battery for a mega hit, not a bad feature eh?

Why Should I Use Pre-Heating?

Pre-heating is an important function on your vaporizer not just for mind blowing power clouds, although that’s certainly part of it, as the feature can be used for helping you deal with both the cold and thicker oils.

Starting with the cold, when cartridges are exposed to lower temperatures the oils within them will begin to thicken and end up requiring more heat to reach vaporization. In steps pre-heating to give you a safe way of gently helping your cartridge reach heat with a gradual application of higher temperatures.

For thicker oils the principles are largely the same, due to your oils being more condensed they will require more heat to vaporize. By pre-heating them you are giving them the time they need to properly reach temperature and then hitting them right at the optimal moment.
