Application of the Volcano Vaporizer

Volcano Vaporizers release flavors and active ingredients from herbs through vaporization by hot air. Optimum treatment of the active ingredients reduces the development of harmful substances and odours to a minimum. This means that even non-smokers find the vaporizer enjoyable.

Efficiency of a vaporizer

A further advantage of the Volcano is the exploitation of active ingredients, being 3-4 times greater when compared with smoking, an aspect which makes the investment in the device pay for itself in the shortest time possible.

Patented valve system

The unique patented Volcano System technology conveys air enriched with flavors and active ingredients into a balloon through a valve. The generated vapors will be completely collected in the balloon. After the filling of the valve balloon, it can be completely detached and separated from the device. The content may be inhaled at ease, independently from the vaporization process both comfortably and safely.

Most professional vaporizer available

The Volcano vaporizer has already gained a reputation among experts as the most technically advanced and professional vaporizer available. The accurate air temperature control sets new standards for vaporizers in precision and reliability.

Stringent selection of material, impeccable processing and practical in its form, the Volcano vaporizer combines simplicity of use, a high degree of safety and particularly good efficiency.

Hypermodern cooking

The VOLCANO vaporizer enables you to explore the benefits of pure flavor and the world of aroma in new and exciting ways. Hypermodern cooking advocates unique methods to extract, refine, and purify aroma from it’s raw source. The VOLCANO vaporizer is the premiere tool to enhance the delicate balance of flavours desired in avant garde cuisine.

Aromatizing technique

The VOLCANO vaporizer’s advantage is that it gently releases delicate scents and aromas without imparting bitter or unpleasant flavors. Flavouring food with pure aromatic vapour is known as “aromatization.” The wide temperature range of the VOLCANO vaporizer allows the user to adjust the specific temperature in order to release aroma in a precisely controlled manner.

The most common culinary vaporization method is to flavor food with aroma produced by the VOLCANO vaporizer. A tasty example of a dish enhanced with a pure aroma is crabmeat aromatized with thyme. The food is placed into an oven bag and the purified aroma fills the bag. While gently cooking in the oven, the aroma will permeate the food.
Sensual food presentation with the bell-shaped cover

The aroma is generated with the VOLCANO and captured under a bell-shaped cover. When the food is presented to the table the cover is lifted and aroma will disperse. The resulting aromatic vapors are used in the modern kitchen to tease the gustatory nerves and to inspire the sense of taste of connoisseurs.
Teasing the gustatory nerves with the aroma pillow

This technique is used to create an ambient aroma while the guest is enjoying the meal. The idea is to slowly deliver aromas during the meal and enwrap the connoisseur in flavor. The VOLCANO vaporizer is used to inflate an oven bag “pillow” that serves as the aroma dispenser. Once the pillow has filled, seal the bag to keep the vapor inside. Before serving the food, pierce the pillow with tiny holes. Place the pillow underneath the plate and serve at the table. The aroma will slowly disperse during the meal and create an ambiance of aroma. Grant Achatz describes the technique in his book ‘Alinea’ using lavender flowers for his pillow.
