The heating test – also known as burning in or burning off – is the first heating of a new vaporizer without material. This removes production residues before you vaporize for the first time. A small step that makes the first draw significantly cleaner.
Why is the heating test important?
New devices can contain minimal residues from manufacturing – for example, in the heating chamber or in the vapor path. When heating up for the first time without material, these dissolve and evaporate. This way you avoid an unclean aftertaste during the first real session.
How to perform the heating test
- Empty chamber: do not fill with any material.
- High temperature: set the device to a high level.
- Ventilate: let it run for a few minutes, preferably by an open window.
- Repeat: if necessary, once or twice, until no more odor is produced.

Usually, once or twice is enough until no more odor is produced.
