Morning Forum,

Long time psychonaut here. I've been using various substances for personal exploration for over 40 years. Long gone are the days of being given bad quality MDMA at parties and these days my journey is more about quality over quantity.

My first hallucinogens were mushrooms, then LSD for many years. I was introduced to DMT by a friend a couple of years ago and I've never looked backed. It's now a regular on my mix chart - https://images.squarespa...ction_Chart?format=2500w

I discovered this forum while trying to discover better ways to smoke my DMT which has always been out of an oil burner. I'm not a smoker and I've always struggled to breakthrough because of this. I'm excited to discover how I can combine the latest in tech to make sure I make the most of such an amazing substance.

Forever forwards!

Hey there and welcome from a fellow European!

Oil burner? Pee-yew! Yes, you'll find plenty of superior methods here, from the ghetto "Machine", through the now-legendary (and possibly hard-to-find) GVG, to various eMesh ideas, along with a good few more specialised devices, not to mention investigations of other ROAs - some of which may include pre-dosing or co-dosing with harmala alkaloids or possibly even an alternative RIMA.

If there's any particular direction in which you're seeking, just ask away and (generally) sooner or later you'll get an informative reply. It's also worth considering the chat function for the possibility of a more immediate interaction - but don't be too disappointed if sometimes the welcome area seems rather quiet; it can get quite lively in there on occasion!

Our paths seem to bear some similarities - unsurprisingly perhaps, although you have at last another decade's worth of exploration over my 30-something years. In my case, after a little dabbling with some LSD of questionable quality, things really took off once I discovered my latent talent for tracking down surprisingly abundant amounts of liberty caps; so this leaves me wondering - what might the circumstances have been that led you to gravitate towards DMT? Have you ever tried combining it with harmala alkaloids/syrian rue/caapi? Have you heard of or tried changa? Technology need not necessarily mean a little electronic box...

Forward_Ad6770,

Welcome to the Nexus. You will find that many of us are also older psychonauts here. Membership ages range from lies about being 18 to over 70 years on this planet.

Yes, very exciting to find other ways to get the dose in other than the old oil burner. Those things work but are very hard to use to vape correctly, so speaking for myself, when I used one about 14 years ago, I constantly burned my DMT. Not .

Currently I use a GVG (Glass Vaporgenie). It's a beautiful device that delivers authentic vapor. Interestingly enough, DMT vapor has NO taste/flavor. Changa vapor tastes like yummy herbs.

The emesh seems to be the premier device. It involves buying parts from multiple vendors and dealing with technical issues but seems to be more than worth it. When dialed in correctly, the only issue is the user must be absolutely sure about intentions because it delivers the entire dose in one efficient hit. I have never tried it but hope to do so in the new year. Apparently it's so efficient (actually the GVG is too) that users start off with 1/3 of the dose they think they want and often get quite the surprise.


I hope you find what you seek and become an active member of this community/family. Again, welcome.

Thanks both for the warm welcome.



I love hallucinogens but I've always had a bit of an awkward threshold where I'm either getting only light visuals or I'm curled up in a ball, eyes closed, trying to stay relaxed. It might be I've built up too many tolerances. DMT for me is brilliant because it's a 'punch in the face' of visual joy and if I still have things to do it doesn't take up a whole day 😊 It's like my NOS of hallucinogens, haha.



I'm quite safety conscious so it's rare I come off the well trodden path of mixes. I definitely appreciate any recommendations for things to read up on. I am going to check this out, thanks!



Not yet but it's definitely on my list, not the easiest to source in Europe atm.



I've seen this referenced quite a bit. Is that the Sherlock looking pipe ? If so how is this different from an oil pipe? Would you recommend this for Changa?



I'll take this on faith but thus far I've never quite managed it. I'm clearly not a natural with a lighter as all I get with DMT is 'burnt tyres up my throat'.



That would be great! It's a huge bonus for me if I can achieve that ALL IN ONE toke with no tyres.

Thanks again. Wish I discovered this forum 10 years ago.
