Storz & Bickel VOLCANO CLASSIC Gold Edition Easy Valve Vaporizer (discount)

Storz & Bickel VOLCANO CLASSIC Gold Edition Easy Valve is a stationary vaporizer in gold, released in 2020 for the 20th anniversary of VOLCANO CLASSIC. The anniversary version retains the operating principle of the original: active convection heating, analog temperature control and vapor collection in a separate bag. This is a model for home spaces where clear controls, a well-thought-out design and a distinctive look of the device are important.

The state of a specific instance

This VOLCANO CLASSIC Gold Edition is being sold as a discount. The original box has been unpacked, the device has been turned on once to check for serviceability. According to the owner, there has been no other use, and the remaining components have not been used. The kit includes four Easy Valve packages: one of the five standard packages is missing. Other components and the original box are present. These differences are worth considering before choosing this particular copy.

Gold version of the classic model

The Gold Edition features a gold-plated body and a recognizable cone-shaped shape. The aluminum body, high-quality materials and German assembly emphasize the character of the anniversary edition. The gold finish complements the classic design, while the main features remain familiar: a separate filling chamber, air heating and the Easy Valve bag system.

Convection heating and analog control

Active convection involves the passage of heated air through the contents of the chamber. A fan directs the flow further to the package, in which the steam is collected. This structure combines the heating unit, the removable chamber and the steam tank into a sequential system with a separate role for each element.

The temperature is regulated by an analog rotary control in the range from 130 to 230 °C. The control is concentrated on the body: the red button turns on the heating, and the orange indicator shows the heating process and goes out when the set temperature is reached. The approximate heating time is 3-5 minutes and depends on the selected setting. The analog format allows you to change the temperature by simply turning the control.

Easy Valve: pair in a separate package

The Easy Valve system collects vapor in a heat-resistant bag with a valve. After filling, the bag is disconnected from the chamber and the mouthpiece is connected. Thanks to this, using the filled bag does not require constant presence near the heating unit. The vaporizer itself remains a stationary device, and the vapor tank is separated.

The valve system is designed for quick bag changes. The filling chamber can be cleaned and reused, which is convenient for regular maintenance. According to the given characteristics, one fully filled chamber can be enough for approximately 3-4 packs of steam. This is a guideline, not a guaranteed result for each filling.

What's included in the kit

The package of this copy differs from the standard set in the number of Easy Valve packages. In fact, the device comes with:

• four Easy Valve packs with attached valves and mouthpiece;
• filling chamber for plant raw materials;
• cushion for aromatic oils;
• set of six nets;
• acrylic grinder;
• cleaning brush;
• original open box.

Materials and care

The model is designed for dry herbal ingredients and aromatic oils; for the latter, a separate pad is provided in the set. The removable chamber provides access for cleaning, and the included brush helps to care for it. Six meshes and accessories complete the system, so the composition of the set should be evaluated together with the specified condition of the device.

VOLCANO CLASSIC Gold Edition combines the anniversary gold design with mechanical adjustment and Easy Valve format. This option is suitable for those who choose a stationary model with a detachable package and are ready to consider an open-box copy after one test turn-on. Its actual package contains four packages, and the condition of the remaining components is described above.

How to use VOLCANO CLASSIC: step-by-step instructions

Step 1. Preparation: Place the device on a flat, stable surface, leaving the ventilation holes open. Check the voltage on the bottom label and connect to a grounded outlet.

Step 2. Fill the chamber. Unscrew the chamber lid counterclockwise, place the crushed dry plant material inside and close the lid. Do not block the mesh. For aromatic oils, use only the appropriate pad and manufacturer's instructions.

Step 3. Heat. Turn on the HEAT switch and set the temperature with the rotary control (range approximately 130–230 °C, nine positions). Wait until the yellow heat indicator light goes out. This may take up to 5 minutes depending on the temperature.

Step 4. Heating the material. Place the closed chamber on the hot air outlet and press the AIR switch. Allow the air flow to heat the chamber contents for a few seconds.

Step 5. Fill the bag. Remove the mouthpiece from the valve of the empty EASY VALVE bag, flatten the bag and secure it to the chamber. The pump will fill the bag with vapor. Do not over-inflate the bag; fill approximately as much as you plan to use within 10 minutes.

Step 6. Disconnect. Turn off the AIR pump, remove the bag with the chamber, holding it by the handle provided, not by the hot parts. Separate the bag from the chamber and install the mouthpiece on the valve. The valve closes automatically when the mouthpiece is released.

Step 7. After use. Turn off heat, allow parts to cool. Clean chamber and screens with the included brush; follow Storz & Bickel manual for complete maintenance.

Important: Do not leave the device turned on unattended; do not block the ventilation. Do not leave the camera on a hot outlet outside the filling of the bag. Do not use the device with a damaged cable or housing.
