A device and system for packaging, storing, and smoking an organic smoking material, and a method of using same. In one embodiment, the system includes a container that includes a housing defining a chamber, a first compartment within the chamber, the first compartment having a first depth, a second compartment within the chamber adjacent the first compartment, the second compartment having a second depth that is less than the first depth, and a lid configured to provide an airtight seal to at least the second compartment. In one embodiment, the system further includes a smoking device having a bowl portion with a sharpened free edge that can be used to simultaneously cut organic smoking material within the second compartment and load the cut organic smoking material into the bowl portion. The system may also include a loading funnel and a pushing device for inserting organic smoking material into the container.

A portable vaporizer with at least one detachable storage compartment for storing a significant amount of smokable materials. The storage compartment is accessed by opening a door so smokable material can be conveniently poured from a spout into the vaporizer's heating chamber. A tool designed for specific purposes is integrated into the detachable storage for use with scooping, loading, stirring, packing, cleaning, or extracting the smokable materials into, from, or within the heating chamber. The detachable storage compartment having an extended surface to fit partially inside the heating chamber tightly packs the smokable material. In instances where a tool is used to scoop the smokable materials, the heating chamber has a nub to aid in the transfer of the smokable material from the tool onto the nub within the heating chamber. A heating chamber is constructed of glass, and a heating element is embedded in the glass base and/or walls.

An aerosol-generating device is provided, including: a cavity configured to receive an aerosol-generating article including an aerosol-forming substrate; a heater configured to heat the aerosol-forming substrate received in the cavity; a power supply; a residue detector for sensing aerosol-forming substrate residue in the cavity or on the heater; and a controller configured to: control a supply of power from the power supply to the heater to heat the aerosol-forming substrate received in the cavity, receive signals from the residue detection means indicative of an amount of aerosol-forming substrate residue in the cavity or on the heater, and determine an indication of the amount of aerosol-forming substrate residue in the cavity or on the heater based on one or more signals received from the residue detection means. An aerosol-generating system and a residue detector device are also provided.

Deformable valves and atomizer designs for a vaporizer (e.g., electronic cigarette). The vaporizer may be used for vaporization of liquid and/or organic material. The vaporizer may enable enhanced flow control of fluid and may generate high quality and quantity of vapor efficiently. In some instances, flow path of the vaporizer may allow bulk fluid flow, e.g., in contrast to capillary flow, to deliver fluid to a vicinity of the vaporizer. In some instances, the vaporizer may utilize improved atomizer designs for vaporizing devices, where said designs can be configured optionally, with various embodiments of a breath-modulating deformable valve.

A smoking apparatus with an access port opening which facilitates easy cleaning is disclosed. This system includes a smoking apparatus that may be in the form of a smoking pipe, a smoking bong, a smoking dab rig, or a smoking bubbler. It further includes a bowl for storing smokable substances and a removable mouth insert/mouth ring for facilitating a shareable experience of the device. The invention also comprises a silicone seal for covering the access opening and maintaining suction when smoking. The disclosed invention is aimed at allowing easy removal of tar/residue buildup from the smoking apparatus.

A container for an organic smoking material includes a housing having a first end and a second end, the housing defining a first chamber and a second chamber, the first chamber adjacent to and separated from the second chamber, the housing defining a first opening providing access to the first chamber at the first end of the housing, and the housing defining a second opening providing access to the second chamber at the first end of the housing, the housing defining a recessed portion that includes a protuberance extending into the recessed portion.
