I just received a quartz TED last week. Got an 18mm because I've tried a dry herb pen, and it just seemed to be too little.

It's fucking amazing. 10/10. Tastes like flowers and not as harsh as burning it. I've only smoked two of three bowls since getting it because I'm lazy sometimes. The ritual is soothing, it feels like you're doing a science experiment with the manual heating, and it's been really cool trying out different coarseness of the bud and different heat levels, fast extraction vs slow, etc.

I don't think I'll level up from pot head to cannabis connoisseur. I'm just fascinated by how much more you can get from the plant by vaporizing it. Even the avb has uses. While I'm not a huge fan of concentrates, the vapor condenses to the inside of the tube and builds up after a couple of sessions. I scrape it out and hit a dab to top off the smoke session.
