Hybrid heating technology – what makes Hammah ?
Hybrid heating technology is at the heart of the Hammah and provides a vaporizing experience that is second to none. It cleverly combines the advantages of convection and conduction: while conduction ensures direct and rapid heating of your herbs, convection guarantees even distribution of hot air throughout the glass pod. The result? A particularly aromatic, dense vapor and optimal yield of active ingredients – every time. Precise temperature control allows you to individually determine the taste and intensity of your vapor. This allows you to get the most out of your herbs without burning anything or losing any aroma. With this advanced hybrid heating technology, the Hammah clearly stands out from other devices and offers you a vapor miracle that you won't want to miss out on.
