Rosin Vape Perfected. The Science Behind the Postless Axil Mini Air All-In-One


Rosin is beloved for its purity, potency, and flavor. But as any rosin producer will tell you, its delicate nature also makes it challenging for vape devices. Issues like clogging, overheating, and inconsistent performance plague many devices, leaving rosin connoisseurs searching for a solution that does justice to their extract.

The Problem with Traditional Vape Hardware for Rosin

Traditional vape hardware isn’t designed to accommodate rosin's unique challenges. By virtue of its solventless nature, rosin has a higher viscosity than most other cannabis extracts. Vaping rosin is more akin to a dab than it is to a traditional vape hit. Lower viscosity extracts, like live resins or even distillates, begin to thin at a lower temperature than rosin.

Because of its thickness, rosin requires more heat before it thins enough to saturate the core and vaporize. But it’s important not to overheat the rosin while doing so, or the delicate characters of the rosin are compromised.

Traditional vape hardware often falls short for rosin, leading to:

  • Clogging: Thick rosin can gum up vape hardware, making draws inconsistent and eventually lead to difficulty pulling.
  • Burning: Overheating ruins the terpene profile, stripping away the delicate flavors and potent cannabinoids that make rosin special.
  • Device failures: Many cartridges simply aren’t built to accommodate the viscosity and purity of solventless extracts, leading to frustrated consumers and wasted product as they inevitably stop working.

Why ACTIVE’S Axil Mini Air Postless Technology is the Solution for Rosin Vapes

Postless technology isn’t new to the market. We’ve just perfected it for rosin. Here’s how.

1. No Nichrome Coils in ACTIVE Vapes

Many other postless vape designs on the market utilize nichrome in their cores. Nichrome is known for transmitting heat poorly and often overheating. This results in an experience that tastes great initially, only to burn shortly after. Or worse, the device stops working altogether because the hardware overheats and carbonizes the rosin, effectively seizing the core.

The proprietary core inside the postless Axil Mini Air All-In-One doesn’t use nichrome. Instead, it’s crafted with a proprietary alloy that delivers consistent heating, excellent flavor retention, and a high tolerance for heat. This ensures reliable performance without compromising the integrity of your extract. By encouraging optimal thermodynamics, our core provides consistent vaporization throughout the lifetime of your ACTIVE rosin vape, ensuring users enjoy every drop of your extract without compromise.

This brings us to a critically important feature: a dual airway.

2. Dual Airway Protection vs. Single Airway

Rosin’s thick viscosity makes it prone to clogs or burnt hits and wispy vapor. That fact is unavoidable.

With a traditional center post, there is one airway from which to pull. If that path becomes clogged, users are left frustrated and fumbling to unclog it.

That’s why the Mini Air was designed with two airways. The dual airpath pulls heat from the core more fluidly than a single airpath. This crucial feature regulates the device's temperature and turbocharges the atomizer, resulting in flavorful dab-like hits.

Additionally, having two airways increases the reliability of the device. If one airway happens to clog, there is still another.

3. Temperature Control Designed for Rosin’s Viscosity

Overheating is the enemy of flavor. Our proprietary ceramic atomizer uses a precision heating algorithm tailored specifically for vaping rosin. This ensures consistent and optimal heating that preserves the complete terpene profile, delivering robust clouds and pure, unadulterated flavor.

The Axil Mini Air is built for higher-viscosity, solventless extracts, making it ideal for materials ranging from 73 to 149 microns.

This translates into a flavor-rich experience for your customers.

4. Crafted in Collaboration with Tony Verzura from Blue River

To develop the Mini Air, we partnered with Tony Verzura of Blue River - a world-renowned hash maker and trailblazer in solventless extraction. Tony’s expertise was instrumental in designing the Axil Mini Air to meet the exceptional standards rosin producers and enthusiasts strive for.

“I only put my name behind products that meet exceptional standards, and with the Mini Air, we’ve achieved that. Precise temperature control and outstanding flavor retention ensure optimal performance for materials from 73 to 149 microns. The Mini Air is the ideal choice for producers committed to quality rosin vape.” — Tony Verzura, Founder & CEO, Blue River™
