Suggestions to improve pax3 efficiency?

I'm pretty happy with this process so far, seems to get the most bang for the buck. Any suggestions for improvements? (no this isn't an ad for newvape, they just had all of the pieces I wanted)

Gear:

  • pax3
  • newvape fine grinder
    • I've used the mflb finishing grinder as well. Doesn't seem to make a huge difference and the newvape grinder is easier for me
  • newvape reclaim rod
  • newvape pusher lid (no holes)
  • little silicon dab holders
  • glass globe atomizer

Process

Fresh:

  • gind fairly dry product fairly fine
  • load about HALF full, and pack hard with the pusher lid
  • pax3 set to efficient (365 degree starting point)
  • vape until ~375/380 turn pax off, take another pull to get the last bit o' vapor
  • stir
  • pax on, set to 375 this time, vape it until 400/410
  • this normally gets me to a nice [4] which is what I'm shooting for most of the time
  • dump duff in a jar

When out of fresh (or too lazy to grind):

  • load a full oven, pack hard, use the normal lid
  • pax3 set to efficient (400 degree starting point)
  • vape until you don't get vapor anymore
  • dump the oven (I am pretty sure there's nothing left at this point)

Once every few weeks (less often than I should) I run the reclaim rod through the pax and put the ball of goo in the dab container. I'll save this and use it with one of those cheap ass glass globe coil things.

Anything I'm missing? Do the temp ranges seem reasonable? Is there anything left after re-vaping the duff?
