The Best Dry Herb And Concentrate Vape In 2025

Next to smoking, vaping is the second most popular cannabis consumption method. Roughly 36.5% of weed users in the United States prefer it over a joint, edibles, and sublingual.

With so many users gravitating towards this consumption method, we’re seeing an influx of high-tech devices hit the weed market—some built for dry herb, others for concentrates.

That got us thinking: why not find one that does both?

Tried, tested, and reviewed, we put the Odin by E10 Labs to the ultimate Herbworthy test. Spoiler alert: the title might give away our opinion, but keep reading for the full review, plus tips on getting the most out of your vape experience.

Today’s cannabis industry has blessed us with all sorts of nifty gadgets for consumption.

Dry herb vaporizers are incredibly reliable for a vaping method that does not involve combustion, while concentrate vapes offer a convenient way to consume concentrates wherever you are.

Instead of snagging both devices, why not get a two-in-one? We’ve done our digging and landed on the Odin device from E10 Labs, which works with both concentrates and dry herbs. For added convenience, E10 Labs offers pre-rilled Nano Joints™ for dry herb vaping and bold Dab Sticks™ loaded with concentrate.

But is this set worth it? We put the Odin device to the test. 

We scoured the internet, dug through forums, and landed on what a lot of vapers swear is the best vaporizer for dry herbs and concentrates.

It’s portable, powerful, and honestly, downright beautiful. While there are a couple of personal drawbacks, I can honestly say that E10 Labs’ Odin device is a solid and reliable vaporizer for dry herb and concentrates.  

Right out of the box, the Odin by E10 Labs feels like a quality vape.  It’s got a solid, modern design that doesn’t scream “weed vape,” which is a win if you need your sessions to be more discreet.

It has a simple one-button function and three lights that indicate individual temperature modes. The experience was pretty straightforward from the get-go.

Using the Odin is easy. Since it works with both dry herbs and concentrates, you have the option to switch up your sessions in a portable, handheld device.

The Odin functions with E10 Labs’ Nano Joints™ filled with ground flower and their concentrate-loaded Dab Sticks™. That was my only drawback. A bit more versatility between flower and concentrates would have been nice, but E10 Labs’ selection of pre-dosed pairings is pretty wide. No complaints in that department.

With a sleek aluminum finish, 2 session settings, USB-C charging, and voltage between 3.7v-4.2v, using this device is simple:

Step 1

Start by twisting the dust-proof cover counter-clockwise off the top of the Odin. Once you’re done with the heating chamber, twist the cap back on to keep it in great shape.

Step 2

Before starting your session, select the temperature and session time (more tips for temperatures are available on Nano Joint™ and Dab Stick™ packaging):

• Temperature Adjustment: Simply press the button three times to activate temperature adjustments. Then, press the button to toggle through all 3 heat settings (indicated by the three lights). Once chosen, your device will save its settings and shut off after 5 seconds.
• Session Adjustment: For session time adjustments, press the button 5 times to change. The bottom light will start to flash. From there, press the button to change between two session modes: one light for Quickie Sesh (2 minutes) and two lights for Full Sesh (4 minutes). Once chosen, your device will save its settings and shut off after 5 seconds.

Step 3

Now, it’s time to insert a Nano Joint™ and Dab Stick™. Take your option of choice and insert it into the heating chamber at the top. Go arrow-side down for Nano Joints™ and concentrate-side down for Dab Sticks™.

Step 4

Next, power up the own with 5 button presses. Once its lights flash and it emits two short vibrations, that means it’s heating your product. Don’t remove your joints and sticks during this time—they’ll be incredibly hot.

Step 5

Once the lights stop flashing and you feel two more vibrations, the Odin is ready for a hit! It will run for the duration you chose during session adjustments. Plus, you can hold the button for 5 seconds to turn it off. Just start from step one to get back in gear.

So, the E10 Labs Odin holds up pretty well as a dual-use vape. But can using a dry herb and concentrate vape really be all that better than the classic cannabis consumption method, smoking?  

For years, smoking was the standard way to consume cannabis. But as technology has advanced, many consumers are turning to dry herb vaporizers for a cleaner experience.

When cannabis is smoked, it undergoes combustion, burning at temperatures high enough to destroy some of its cannabinoids and terpenes while producing over 100 toxic byproducts and carcinogens. These compounds are inhaled along with the active ingredients, potentially leading to respiratory irritation over time.

Vaping eliminates combustion entirely.

Instead, the device heats the flower at controlled temperatures, releasing cannabinoids and terpenes without producing harmful byproducts.

The result? A cleaner hit that often saves you from a teary-eyed coughing fit, has better flavor, and is overall a more efficient way to extract the plant’s active compounds.

Better Flavor Profile

Vaping at lower temperatures doesn’t burn your terpenes away. Instead, it carefully preserves them for maximum flavor. You’ll start noticing subtle notes you never picked up when smoking. Trying new strains becomes a lot more exciting.

More Efficient Use Of Your Stash

Vaporizers extract cannabinoids way more efficiently than scorching them. Basically, you get more mileage from your weed. You’ll often use 30-40% less flower while getting the same effects.

Customizable

Smoking is a one-size-fits-all situation. You can’t adjust the temperature of your joint. On the other hand, vapes let you customize your experience for more flavor or more intensity. Want more flavor and a milder high? Go low. Looking for maximum potency? Crank it up.

Smoother On The Lungs And Throat

Vapor is much less harsh than smoke. While it can still make you cough with higher temperatures and longer draws, the instant reaction is significantly less than what you’d get from smoking.

Less Lingering Odor

Vaping is more discreet than smoking, but it’s not completely odor-free. Since vapor dissipates faster than smoke and doesn’t cling to clothes, hair, or furniture as strongly, it leaves behind less lingering scent. But if you’re vaping at higher temperatures and using potent strains, your exhaled vapor can still produce a noticeable aroma.

Temperature is everything when it comes to vaping. It’s the difference between a sesh that hits all the right notes and one that leaves you disappointed (or worse, with a scratchy throat).

• 320-350°F (160-175°C): My friends, welcome to the flavor zone. Expect to experience the most vibrant terpene profiles with a milder buzz.
• 350-390°F (175-200°C): The balanced range. This sweet spot provides solid vapor production with a good balance of flavor and potency.
• 390-430°F (200-220°C): This one’s for heavy hitters. These higher temps will extract maximum THC and other cannabinoids, delivering more intense effects but with less flavor as terpenes may be burned off. You’ll get thicker clouds but harsher hits.

Concentrates are a bit different. Since these extracts have higher concentrations of cannabinoids, they need different temperatures than dry herbs.

• 315-450°F (157-232°C): Perfect for flavor. This range preserves terpenes to bring out the intended sensory experience of your chosen concentrate.
• 450-550°F (232-288°C): For more punch, this range provides a balance between flavor and vapor.
• 550-700°F (288-371°C): You’ll definitely experience some coughing with this range. It delivers the most potent effects and thickest clouds but less flavor and can be harsh on the throat.
