Since it was first released in 1999, the Volcano Classic from Storz & Bickel has delivered two decades of pure bliss to vapers and continues to excel in a market that has grown significantly. When the Volcano vaporiser was released, it reshaped the vaporiser scene. It was one of the most pivotal advancements in the herb consumption industry. It quickly grew to become a fan-favourite, a title that it has retained for over two decades.

The Volcano Classic has held up nicely against the sands of time. It still gives top-notch performance many years later.

Volcano Classic Review

If you love vaping at home, the Volcano Classic is one of the best desktop vaporisers money can buy. It is a durable and high-quality vaporiser that produces smooth and flavourful vapour. The bag system adds a portability element that makes the Volcano Classic an ideal choice for vapers that don’t want to be stuck in the same location for too long.

The bag also makes it easier to share your flavourful vapour with other people. Because of its high efficiency, most users report using less herb to achieve the same vapour intensity. The vaporiser is perfect for groups, especially when used with the easy valve system.

How it Works

Working the Volcano Classic is relatively easy. Because the device takes a while to heat up, start by turning it on and choosing your heat setting.

After, remove the chamber and pack it with ground herb, then wait for the device to finish warming up before you can start vaping.

Before starting the pump, attach a balloon. The balloon will fill up with flavour-filled vapour, after which you can turn off the fan or add another balloon if you happen to be sharing. You can then take your hits from the balloon.

Vapour Quality

It has been many years since the Volcano Classic was unveiled. Over the years, there have been numerous advances in the market. But you shouldn’t forget that the Classic set the standard for vapour quality. To date, the device still sets the bar quite high with regard to vapour quality.

Although the Volcano Hybrid delivers better quality, dense and potent vapour, the vapour production of the Classic remains one of the best among vaporisers.

The device has exceptional extraction and top-quality vapour, which is smooth and easy to inhale. Despite its years, the Volcano Classic still rubs shoulders with the best in the industry.

Manufacturing Quality

One of the best ways to assess the manufacturing quality of any device is how well it stands the test of time. Storz & Bickel has always prided itself in building the best quality and engineered vaporisers and the Volcano Classic stands as the true testament. The Volcano Classic carries the company's dominance in the market on its shoulders, being the foundation that other successful Volcanos have been built.

Most Volcanos have lasted for over 10 years, still working perfectly, only requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. Some users have even confessed to always leaving the device on and never turning it off without any problems whatsoever. These stories only prove what a quality device the Volcano Classic is.

It's not just the device that features precision engineering and the best manufacturing practices. The other accessories and components that go into the device, like the herb chamber, balloons, valve adapter, and mouthpiece, are all of the same quality.

Temperature Flexibility

Two decades ago, temperature flexibility wasn’t the big deal it is today. Devices rarely feature digital dials that allowed you to have full temperature control. Still, the Volcano did an excellent job, including a dial that allowed users to tune the temperature. The higher the dial, the hotter the vapour. For most vapers, the 7-8 range is usually the preferred range.

If you’re a stifler for temperature control, Storz & Bickel have an upgraded version of the Classic in the Volcano Hybrid with more advanced temperature control features that allows you to customise your vaping experience to your preference.

Ease of Use

The Volcano Classic is simple to use. Just turn it on, load the chamber, let the balloon fill up, then inhale. For some vapers, it might take a few sessions to master the routine, but once you have it down, the Volcano does an excellent job of delivering consistent results.

Using the balloons is a particularly savvy way of sharing your herb with friends as you pass it off to friends. It’s incredibly easy.

Cleaning the Volcano is equally easy. The chamber and the screen don't get dirty often, and the cleaning brush does an excellent job of getting rid of the dirt.

Overall Experience

For a device that has remained unchanged since 1999, the Volcano Classic is still the life of the party, delivering an amazing experience that is at par with most of the modern vaporisers and even better in some aspects.

It performs exceedingly well. Some of its successors have a better performance but if you’re into old is gold, then the Classic is your best bet. You will be amazed at how durable the device is and is still a viable option in today's market. It's an excellent choice if you're looking for longevity coupled with a superb herb vaping experience.

Who is it Best For?

The Volcano Classic is an ideal pick for vapers that love a brand-name device that has stood the test of time and proven its longevity and quality build. The Volcano Classic is regarded as one of the best in the industry. It is highly regarded and was authorised as a medical-grade device in Canada and Israel. If you're looking for a product with the best vapour quality, it doesn’t get better than the Volcano Classic. It is a better fit for old-school vapers that prefer a more traditional temperature dial with an analogue touch.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning and maintenance are critical to the performance of all vaporisers. Intricate devices are hard to clean because they have more parts, some of which are hard to get to. The Volcano Classic requires just a few supplies, and the cleaning and maintenance process will take less than an hour.

Some of the supplies you need to clean your Volcano Classic include Isopropyl alcohol, cotton tips, jars, flat head screwdriver. Some soap and warm water will also be handy. Most of the work goes into taking the vaporiser apart to clean the parts. Once stripped down, the rest of the cleaning process is simple and straightforward.

 Summary

There's no shortage of stunning desktop vaporisers. The Volcano line-up has quite a number of options and the Volcano Classic is easily one of the best. The Classic produces high-quality vapour. The device stands up well to the test of time. You don’t have to worry about anything going wrong with your vape, and the device is low maintenance.

Once set up, the vaporiser takes care of everything from beginning to end. The Classic is one of the simplest desktop vaporisers to use. Even first-time user can have the device figured out in a few minutes. At the same time, it doesn’t control away from seasoned herb connoisseurs.
