So after months of failed smoking techniques, I've finally found something that works for me.

I pack a bowl with 3 layers.

1st Layer - Changa(Made with caapi leaf and jim jam)

2nd Layer - a good 30mg - 50mg Jim Jam

3rd Layer - Changa(Made with caapi leaf and jim jam)

I then light the top, and slowly inhale.

Seems to be working quite well. I do this in a vapor genie, with the top off. I've heard this is bad, but I dont normally even make it to the bottom with the burn in one trip, and I can't see how it would be hurting it.

I've yet to figure out how exactly to use the vapor genie with the top on. It seems the air always cools down too fast after a long toke. So I have better luck just removing the top and lighting up the top layer of changa.

Just keep the flame going for 80-100% of the time...

Yip, you should really be keeping the flame on the top of the VG almost the whole time.

Do you not find the smoke to be pretty hot without the top on?

Ans what do you mean by "It seems the air always cools down too fast after a long toke"?

im not really into the whole vapor-pipe thing myself. i just use a normal lighter and hold it a safe distance away. sometimes i use a torch if i really wanna go a lot farther with fewer hits..
