Understanding the Display
The color LCD shows:
- Current/Target Temperature: Displayed in Fahrenheit or Celsius
- Battery Level: Visual indicator of remaining charge
- Heating Status: Temperature climbs in real-time during heat-up
Usage Instructions
Preparing Your Herb
Proper preparation is essential for optimal vapor quality:
- Grind your herb to a medium-fine consistency
- Remove stems and seeds before loading
- Ensure material is properly dried (not overly moist)
- Do not grind to powder as this restricts airflow
Loading the Chamber
- Remove the magnetic mouthpiece by pulling it straight up
- Use the included brush or a small tool to load herb into the ceramic chamber
- Fill the chamber loosely—do not compress tightly
- Fill to the top but avoid overpacking
- Brush away any material from the rim
- Replace the magnetic mouthpiece securely
Optimal Packing Guide
| Packing Style | Result |
|---|---|
| Too Loose | Uneven heating, weak vapor |
| Too Tight | Restricted airflow, poor extraction |
| Just Right | Gentle fill, material moves slightly when shaken |
Setting Temperature
- With the device powered on, use the + and - buttons to adjust temperature
- Temperature can be set anywhere from 200F to 480F
- The display updates in real-time as you adjust
- Device begins heating automatically when temperature is set
Temperature Guide
| Temperature Range | Best For | Vapor Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| 200-320F (93-160C) | Maximum flavor, terpene preservation | Light, wispy vapor, subtle effects |
| 320-390F (160-199C) | Balanced experience | Moderate vapor, good flavor |
| 390-430F (199-221C) | Strong vapor production | Dense clouds, less flavor |
| 430-480F (221-248C) | Maximum extraction | Very dense vapor, minimal flavor |
Vaping Technique
- Wait for the device to reach target temperature (it vibrates when ready)
- Place the mouthpiece to your lips
- Draw slowly and steadily for 3-5 seconds
- Do not inhale too forcefully—gentle draws work best
- Exhale and repeat
- Stir the chamber halfway through the session for even extraction
Session Tips
- Start low, go slow: Begin at lower temperatures and increase as flavor diminishes
- Slow draws: Rapid pulling cools the chamber and reduces vapor
- Stir mid-session: Use a small tool to stir herb for more even heating
- Know when to stop: When flavor turns harsh or "popcorn-like," the material is spent
- Fresh material: Spent herb turns brown; if it turns black, your temperature is too high
Temperature Recommendations by Effect
Flavor-Focused Session (200-350F)
- Preserves terpenes and volatile compounds
- Light, tasty vapor with subtle effects
- Best for appreciating strain characteristics
- Longer sessions possible before material is spent
Balanced Session (350-400F)
- Good combination of flavor and effect
- Moderate visible vapor
- Sweet spot for most users
- Recommended starting range for beginners
Effect-Focused Session (400-480F)
- Maximum extraction from material
- Dense, visible vapor clouds
- Stronger effects, less flavor
- Material depletes faster
Battery and Charging
Battery Life
The 1200mAh battery provides:
- 4-6 full sessions on a single charge (typical use)
- Fewer sessions at high temperatures
- More sessions at low temperatures
- Battery indicator on LCD shows remaining charge
Charging Instructions

Battery Best Practices
- Do not completely drain battery before recharging
- Avoid leaving on charger for extended periods after full
- Use quality USB power sources (5V/1A or higher recommended)
- Avoid extreme temperatures during charging and storage
- Store partially charged (40-60%) for long-term storage
Care & Maintenance
After Each Session
- While the chamber is still warm (not hot), tap out spent material
- Use the cleaning brush to remove remaining debris
- Wipe the mouthpiece airpath with a dry cloth
- Allow device to cool before storage
Weekly Deep Cleaning
Ceramic Chamber:
- Ensure device is completely cool and powered off
- Remove mouthpiece
- Use a cotton swab lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol (90%+)
- Gently wipe the chamber walls
- Do not saturate—moisture should not reach electronics
- Allow to dry completely before use (at least 30 minutes)
Mouthpiece:
- Remove from device
- Disassemble if applicable
- Soak components in isopropyl alcohol for 10-15 minutes
- Rinse with warm water
- Dry thoroughly before reattaching
Exterior:
- Wipe with slightly damp cloth
- Dry immediately
- Do not submerge device in any liquid
Cleaning Tips
- Clean chamber while still slightly warm for easier debris removal
- Never use sharp metal tools that could scratch ceramic
- Regular cleaning maintains flavor quality and airflow
- Replace screens/filters if they become clogged (check Yocan for replacements)
Storage
- Store in a cool, dry place
- Avoid direct sunlight and extreme temperatures
- Empty chamber before long-term storage
- Keep mouthpiece attached to prevent dust entry
- Store partially charged for extended periods
