Myxed Up Creations was thrilled an honored to be selected as the "Best Head Shop" in the Westword Best of Denver 2023 edition. Best of Denver is a great annual tradition carried out by the Westword staff, as they award hundreds of Denver-area personalities, restaurants, bars and shops with the coveted accolades.
The article points out that "Myxed Up Denver is one of the city's largest head shops, embracing hemp, CBD and all things counterculture that have sprouted up in Colorado over the years." When you have spent 30 years in Denver you see things that were once viewed as counterculture, simply become culture.
The owner Phil Guerin started Myxed Up in the basement of his parents Park Hill home making clay mushroom wearable art. The original store opened on East Colfax Avenue in Denver over 30 years ago. Since then Myxed Up has been a trendsetter in the retail industry. The cherished "BEST OF DENVER" award from Westword validates a commitment to the communities Myxed Up serves.
Phil Guerin boasts, "We love our people and our people love us! Myxed Up has brought much happiness to many lives. We have positively impacted thousands of lives through our stores and philanthropical endeavors."

]]>During the upcoming year, Myxed Up Creations will be celebrating 30 years of Myxed Up Creations on Colfax Ave. To mark the occasion, Myxed Up founder Phil Guerin recently sat down with Westword Denver cannabis editor Thomas Mitchell to talk about 30 years on Colfax, and among other things, Denver's current marijuana and cannabis landscape. Guerin talks about all of the change he's seen since opening the shop in 1992, and many of the ways that the cannabis industry has changed (and stayed the same).
Phil started off by selling hand-made fimo clay mushrooms at events like the Taste of Colorado, but quickly realized that glassware and smoking accessories presented a more compelling career path. "Turning from mushroom purveyor to head shop owner, he began selling pieces at Myxed Up on Colfax in the early ’90s, and he hasn't looked back."
Check out the full article and interview with Myxed Up founder Phil Guerin on the Westword website.
The reality is that there is no way that we would have lasted 30 years on Colfax without our amazing customers. Colfax is the place that we call home, and we don't ever want to leave. Like Phil says, "It was always my desire to stay here. I love that street."

This month the Denver City Council is considering a ban on the sale of flavored vape products. The proposal has the support of many of the council members, and without significant interference from citizens, the ban is likely to go into effect!
The proposal is being framed as a move to protect minors from being drawn into smoking and vaping, but the idea that these products are made specifically to entice children is absurd. Many responsible adults prefer the flavor of vape over cigarettes, and many more have used flavored vaping to quit smoking altogether. A ban on flavored vape threatens to put dozens of responsible stores out of business and infringes on the rights of adults to use whichever flavored vaping product they choose.
Other Colorado municipalities have addressed the problem of underage smoking by limiting the sale of vapes to age-restricted 21 and up stores, and this strategy has proven very effective. Eliminating the sale of flavored vape all together does little to address the problem and much to infringe upon the rights of responsible adults and business owners.
The proposal will be debated on October 6 at 10:30am by the Denver City Council Committee of Safety, Housing, Education, and Homelessness. You can help stop the ban by attending the meeting with us to pack the room or by contacting the Denver City Council- Tell them how vaping has helped you quit cigarettes, how your business will be affected (like those in Boulder and Glenwood Springs), or how your freedom to enjoy vaping as you like it shouldn’t be undermined by the irresponsible actions of others. Please sign the Change.org petition to help small businesses and protect your rights!
The XVape Aria Portable Dry Herb and Concentrate Vaporizer Kit is a convenient 2-way Vape. In this episode of MyxedUpTV, Rachael from Myxed Up Creations in Aurora gives us the rundown on the Aria. Learn about some of the settings and options as well as the controls to get the most out of your Aria!
XVape Aria Dry Herb and Concentrate Vaporizer Overview from Myxed Up Creations on Vimeo.
Hey what's up, guys? Today we're going to be talking about the Aria from XVape. This is a portable dry herb slash concentrate vaporizer. So, we're going to go ahead and show you some of the cool stuff that this guy has. So, we've got the device here. Let me go ahead and pull this guy out. You've got a sweet little accessory kit. We've got the charger, we got a cleaning brush, we got a nice little concentrate deal here, and we've got some extra screens. Also, on the actual device we have a cleaning brush. Right here, pretty snazzy.
Next we're going to show you how to turn this bad boy on. One, two, three, four, five on the button here. See how it immediately shows you the coffee pot here? Go ahead and check that out. See how it's flashing? When it goes steady, it's going to let you know that it's at optimum temperature, or the temperature that you set it at. Next, we're going to show you how to switch this bad boy between Fahrenheit and Celsius. We're going to hold the power button and the down button for about five seconds. We're going to see how that switches there. I'm going to show you how to switch it back. Power button, down button. See how that switches?
Next we're going to show you how to toggle in between the 10 minute setting and the five minute setting. We're going to hold the power button here and we're going to hold the top button here. See how that switched from nine minutes to four minutes? Just that simple. So again, top button, top button here.
Next we're going to show you how to properly load the Aria. We're going to take off the top here. We've got magnets, so it's a nice easy on/off. It's going to be a ceramic chamber, which is very nice, so that you don't end up heating up the mouthpiece when it gets a little hot. We've got the screens up here in the top. All of this comes out for easy cleaning, and you note a screen on the inside here. First you're going to ground up your product and loosely load it on the inside of this guy. We want to make sure that we're not over packing because it eliminates a lot of the air flow. Once you've got your product loaded on the inside there, we're going to put the mouthpiece back on there. As we already talked about, you're going to set your settings so that you can start vaping.
Now to load your concentrates, we're going to take the little screen on the inside here. We're going to drop it down in the bottom of the chamber. Make sure that your device is off before you do this. The Aria does get very hot. So, you see how it's on the bottom there? You're going to put your concentrates on the top there. Make sure that you're not loading a bunch in there so that it properly vapes.
Next I'm going to show you how to charge your Aria. You're going to notice a small micro USB charger right here at the bottom. In the kit, you get your USB adapter. You're going to want to make sure that you run your Aria completely dead before you go ahead and charge it up that first time.
All right guys, and this is the Aria. You can pick this up at any Myxed Up Creations location, or at MyxedUp.com.
Come on down to your local Myxed Up Creations in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Grand Junction to check them out in person, or shop us online for the XVape Aria, or any other urban supply needs.
]]>In this episode of MyxedUpTV, we take a look at the new XVape Vista Mini 2 Portable Vaporizer. The XVape Vista Mini 2 Portable Vaporizer is a convenient and powerful electronic dab rig and e-nail for enjoying oils and concentrates. The Vista Mini 2 is the newest version of the very popular original Vista Mini by XVape.
The Vista Mini 2 is a statement piece and the perfect size for your desk, coffee table, or on the go. It comes with an impact resistant smell proof carrying case that can pack all your necessities for dabbing.
What's up, everybody? On this episode of MyxedUpTV, we're going to be talking about the XVape Vista Mini 2.
So let's talk about what's in the box. First thing you have is your XVape Vista Mini 2 unit. You've got your borosilicate flared mouthpiece. XVape dab tool. All-in-one crystal quartz bucket atomizers. USB charging cord. Keck clip. You're going to have two silicon connect rings. Alcohol prep pads for cleaning. Q-tips for cleaning. And replacement o-rings.
First things first, you want to make sure that the unit's charged. The instruction manual suggests charging the unit up for a full two hours to make sure it's charged up to 100% before your first use.
Now, let's talk about assembling and operating the unit. First thing you'll notice here is that you've got your borosilicate glass carb cap, o-ring housing unit. And this actually just unplugs from here. Get that unscrewed. Take that off. You've got the borosilicate detached glass bubbler, and you've got the battery.
All right, now we've got the whole unit disassembled and we're going to show you how to put everything back together. So I've already got the silicone connect ring attached to the carb cap. As you can just see, it goes over the top of the carb cap. Securely fits on there, just slide it right over the top. And then that ring is going to go at the base of where the bubbler and the mouthpiece come together. And that's just going to hold the carb cap on there for easy access. So to get this thing back together, you've got the battery, you've got the bubbler unit. Get those attached. Now you take the o-ring, screw that on here. Take the all-in-one crystal quartz bucket. Get the atomizer screwed in here. At this point, it's probably the easiest time to go ahead and get the carb cap on there. Get that ready to go. And get the mouthpiece on here. Attach the keck clip. Now the full unit is assembled and ready to be used.
Now, we've got the XVape Vista Mini 2 assembled and we're ready to go. The first thing we're going to want to do is get the bubbler filled up with water. So you've got to take the mouthpiece off here and you're just going to fill the bubbler up to the red line. Probably less than a half ounce of water will do it. I had a cup all ready to go. Get the water filled up to the red line there. Now that we have the water in there, you're ready to get this guy loaded up. Put the mouthpiece back on there, the keck clip on there. Got some CBD shatter here. Go ahead and get that loaded in the bucket. Now that's all loaded in and ready to go. Now we'll get the carb cap placed on here. Now we've got the bubbler filled up with water, we've got the product loaded up in the atomizer, we're ready to get this unit powered up and ready to go.
To turn the unit on you're going to hit the power button three times, one, two, three. That's going to power the unit up. The LED indicator lights are going to tell you how much battery power you have left in the unit when you turn it on. If it glows white, you have 60% to 100% power. If it glows green, you have 20% to 60% power. If it glows red, as it is right now, then you've got less than 20% power. So to set the temperature on the XVape, you're going to want to hit the button two times, one, two. By hitting the button two times, you're going to be able to cycle between four different temperature settings. The first setting is white, for 536 degrees Fahrenheit. The second setting is green, for 608 degrees Fahrenheit. Third setting is blue, for 662 degrees Fahrenheit. And the fourth setting is red, for 752 degrees Fahrenheit. Select your temperature setting based on the viscosity of your concentrate and user preference. Once you have the temperature setting selected, hit the button one time to fire the unit up. Once the unit's reached the desired temperature, the LED indicator lights will stop blinking and the unit will vibrate with the haptic feedback to tell you that it's reached the temperature. Once it’s reached the temperature, you're ready to enjoy.
So that's the Vista Mini 2 from XVape. You can pick this product up at any of our Colorado Myxed Up Creations locations or online at myxedup.com.

In this episode of MyxedUpTV Rachael at Myxed Up Aurora gives us the rundown on all of the most popular dab straw glass pipes that we have available in a variety of different options. From basic dab straws, all the way to pipes with water filtering function and multiple interchangeable glass and titanium tips.
Dabbing on the Go with Nectar Collector Style Dab Straws from Myxed Up Creations on Vimeo.
At Myxed Up Creations we have many different styles of nectar collector dab straws. Based on your desired price range and functionality, we are sure to have a mobile dabbing solution to meet your budget!
$12 Mini Nectar Collector Dab Straw
$18 Large Nectar Collector Dab Straw
$25 Dab Straw Nectar Collector by Shifty Glass
$40 Micro NC Honey Tip Nectar Collector
Hey, what's up guys? Today we're going to start talking about dabbing on the go. First, we're going to show you the most easy way to do it. Nice little nectar collector, nice and simple. Real pretty. All of these guys here are going to be a glass option, so minimal temperature, minimal heat, maximum dabbage.
So, these are some of the examples of simple dabbing. We've got your basic straws here, and they get a little bit longer, they get a little bit thicker. And then we've got some removable options here. We've also got the big daddy here, which is the nectar collector with the water functions. Plus, we've got some extra kits, extra tips on the inside here. We've got the titanium tip, and we've got a quartz option.
First we're going to talk about how to use the simple dabbers here. With these guys, this one, this one, and this one. Very minimal heat, like I said, goes into this guy. So we're going to torch the tip for about 10 to 15 seconds, or until you see a nice orange hue. Once you see that orange hue, you're ready to go.
What you're going to want to do is make sure that you hold it at about a 45 degree angle and kind of tap your concentrate. That way, we're not flooding it on the inside, and you get the best hit.
With something a little thicker like this guy here made by our buddy Dan Barto, you've got a much wider tip here, show you here, and a nice wide open body. This gives you that more mouth to lung hit.
With this guy, nice option, made by our buddy Bubbler Dave, you have a glass on glass connection here. What this does is it makes it a whole lot easier to maintain the inside of your device. Now again, we can see this guy has a nice wide opening on the inside, great for air flow. So again, torch your tip for about 15 to 20 seconds with something like this, and still, at about a 45 degree angle, and tap your concentrates here.
Then we're going to talk about the Micro NC Kit. This is the guy that has the water functions. I'm going to show you how to assemble that bad boy. Pull it out here. See that we got the perk right here. The most important thing with this guy is where your water's at. Water is super important. We want to make sure that our water level isn't going up above the lines here, because unfortunately this guy's not spill-proof. We don't want to wear the water, that would be a bad day. Next, we're going to take the mouthpiece, give it a little quarter turn so nothing falls out. We're going to use the quartz tip today. Again, nice little quarter turn, nothing falls out. So same temperature as something like this, about 15 to 20 seconds and you're going to tap your concentrates. The cool part about this guy is it comes with a nice little glass concentrate dish so you can lay your concentrates on the inside of there and do your thing.
Next, we're going to show you the titanium tip here. See here? See how it goes in? Give it a little quarter turn. These guys don't tend to stay very well, so we've got two clips on the inside here to make sure that this guy doesn't fall off and you don't end up burnt. Nothing's coming out. With the titanium tip, you're going to end up torching for about 15 to 30 seconds. We want to see a nice orange hue on the top here. Once that happens, it's really important to maintain your 45 degree so that this guy doesn't get flooded. The most important part about this is where you're torching. You want to make sure that it's at the top here. If you're going towards the back here, it can cause this bad boy to crack. That's not what we want.
And that, guys, is dabbing on the go. You can pick up any of these devices at any Myxed Up location, or at MyxedUp.com.
Designed for oils, waxy concentrates and shatter, this simple yet elegant dab pipe features the innovative nectar collector style design. To use a dab straw, just heat the tip and dab into your favorite concentrate product. No need for extra pieces or changing tips. Best when used with a glass dab tray.
Each dab straw is made from Pyrex glass and range in a variety of colors. Check out the tutorial video for a full rundown on how to best utilize your new dab straw.
$12 Mini Nectar Collector Dab Straw
$18 Large Nectar Collector Dab Straw
$25 Dab Straw Nectar Collector by Shifty Glass
$2 Myxed Up Mushroom Silicone Concentrate Container
Hey everybody. Welcome back to this episode of MyxedUpTV. I'm Todd and today we're going to be talking about dab straws. What are they? Well, most people think when you take a dab that you would need something like a water pipe or rig, something a little bit larger. Dab straws are probably the most efficient and probably the easiest way to dab without having to have all of the extras. I have here in front of you a few different styles of dab straws that we carry and then I'm going to use my own personal dab straw, which is one of the ones I have here to show you exactly how it all works.
A dab straw is basically what it sounds like. It's similar to a glass tube. One end will be for heating up for your nail where you'll heat this up and go into a concentrate, and the other end will be in a mouthpiece. At Myxed Up we do have a few different varieties. Our smallest ones are these guys. They're $12. We do have the next size up in that which is $18 so you can see here, heat up this end with your torch and use this end for your mouthpiece.
The one that I'm going to be using today are these guys here. I prefer these a little bit better. They are a little shorter than the long ones, but a little longer than the short ones, and they are about twice as thick in glass. So I do like these. These ones I believe are a much better dab straw than the smaller ones. But you can use anyone preferred on your price.
So normally with the dab you would heat up a nail and then you would use a tool to place your dab into your nail. Right? On a dab straw, it's similar, except you don't need the nail. You don't need the tool, you don't need a torch as big. We're actually just going to be using a small little guy today, and you can dab pretty much out of a lot of different things. So some people like to dab out of their silicone, non stick jars. That's what I'm going to use today. You could also use glass jars, glass dishes, things like that. That'll work just great, whatever you're going to keep your solid concentrates in.
So for those of you that know dabbing, we're going to be using a solid concentrate. That's what I have for us to use today. Just a little bit of shatter here and it's very simple. So as you can see, I have my dab straw on a nice little handy carrying case here. You put it on a lanyard, it could just hang on you. Put it in your pocket. Easy to go. Nice little leather guy. Pull it out. As you can see, this one's been used a little bit here. This is my own personal one. And so what I'll do is I'm going to heat the end up with a small torch and then we're just going to take this little concentrate and we're going to go down and we're just going to touch it with your dab straw.
So these are great for on the go. Great for traveling, very affordable, but you don't get water. So keys to heating this up. Make sure that you're not heating it up until it's glowing. If it's glowing red hot, that's way too hot. You want to make sure it cools down. With a nice smaller torch you don't have to take as long. The bigger ones are way too much for the glass and so you definitely don't want to be using those on your torch, unless you're good control and you can heat it up very evenly where you're not heating it up too much. So let's go ahead and we'll show you guys how to do this.
So we take our dab straw, take our torch, make sure we got our flame going, and then we're just going to slowly heat up the end of this torch. Now it doesn't take too long, it'll only take maybe ten seconds or so to really get your tip heated up to where you want it to be. I'm going to overheat it a little bit just so you guys can see the glow and that's what you don't want to do. As you can see now I'm starting to see just a tad bit of glow on the very end there. It might be a little bit difficult for you guys to see, but it's starting to glow just a hair. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to stop heating it up. I'm actually going to let it cool down a little bit because you don't want it that red hot when you do your dab and then once it cools down just a little bit, we're just going to touch it. Once we touch it, it'll vape.
There you go. So as you can see really easy, super quick. You don't have to pick anything up. You don't have to fumble with anything. It just stays right into your jar there. When I'm done, what's really nice with this guy is I can actually heat it up and since I have a leather case I can just drop it right back into my leather case and I don't have to worry about it getting hot or burning anything. And this can go right back into my pocket.
As for your concentrates. Yep. Just put your lid back on and you're ready to go. That's pretty much a whole set right here that you can take. Torch, dabber, and your concentrate all in one little kit and it can go in your pocket, go on your backpack, easy to go. So easy dabbing on the go. Dab straws 101. Right?
You guys can pick up these at myxedup.com or at any Myxed Up Creations locations. If you want something a little bit nicer, we also have water ones like Micro Nectar Collectors and things like that. Those guys are going to start out at about, I want to say $45 to $55 though on the website. So definitely check these smaller ones out, $12, $18 and I believe $25, $25 or $35 for the larger ones. It depends on the colors and things like that. But you can get, as you can see here, we have a slew of colors in the bigger ones and these ones are my favorite there you can see. But these work really nice, super convenient, and super ready for on the go. So thanks for watching everybody and we'll see you guys next time.
Are you ready to launch your dab game to the next level in 2020? Check out the Dive by Yocan. The Dive is an electronic nectar collector style concentrate pen with a ceramic coil that produces some of the best tasting vape and some of the best clouds you can get from any concentrate device!
Yocan Dive Electronic Concentrate Pen Overview from Myxed Up Creations on Vimeo.
YoCan is back at it again with more dank products for those of you that like taking dabs on the go but don't want to worry about a torch! The Dive is an electronic dab straw that really packs a punch!
Hey, what's up guys? Today we're going to be talking about the Dive from Yocan.
First things first, we're going to show you what's inside the box. We've got the Dive pen, comes with the charger, and it comes with an extra tip.
Next we're going to show you how to turn the Dive on. We've got the silver button here. One, two, three, four, five. See the flashing green button? Green light lets you know that the device is turned on. Then we use the magnetic closure here, you expose your coil.
You have three different temperature settings with your Dive. One, two, three switches you between your lowest, your medium, and your high setting. Your white light is your lowest setting: one, two, three. Your red setting is going to be your medium setting: one, two, three. Your green setting is going to be your highest setting. Now, why is that important? We want something with a little bit less vapor production, we're going to go down to a lower temperature setting. We want that one hitter quitter option, we're going to crank it up to the highest setting.
With this guy, this is going to be your mouthpiece. The only reason you'd ever really need to open this guy up is to clean your mouthpiece up here. You will build a little condensation from product on the inside.
When we're actually ready to dab with the Dive, you want to make sure that your device is at a 45 degree angle and you're going to touch your concentrates. With this device, it's very important to make sure that you're utilizing your angles. As we can see, this guy's not very wide open on the top. We want to encourage airflow on the inside.
To charge the Dive, you're going to utilize your in-kit micro USB charger and it plugs in right on the side here. What you want to do is when you pull it out of the box, make sure that you use it until it's completely dead. It does have about a quarter to half charge on it or a demo charge. Once this little light won't stop flashing at you and it's generally going to be a white light, when that won't start flashing at you, plug this in and monitor it for about two to three hours or until this light turns green. Whichever happens first is totally okay. The worst thing that you can do with your Dive is overcharge it. Once you've overcharged it, it does eliminate a lot of the battery memory out of this and you won't have your device for as long as you're going to want.
To clean the Dive, you're going to want to maintain your heating elements here. As we can see, this is a ceramic chamber up here. It's very, very, very simple to maintain. All you need to do is take a Q-tip with the tiniest little bit of alcohol on it or utilize an alcohol prep pad and wipe off the top. The cleaner that the top piece is, the better air flow that you're going to get, ultimately the better dab you're going to have.
And that guys is the Dive by Yocan. You can pick this up at any Myxed Up location or at here online!
]]>The Carta Vape Electronic Dab Rig by Focus V is one of the newest "Portable Desktop Vapes" to hit the market. The Carta has the appearance that it was designed to go head to head with the PuffCo Peak and the Switch from Dr. D. At a slightly lower price point than the two aforementioned "Portable Desktop Vapes" the Carta offers a quality solution for anyone looking for a new e-nail.
What's up guys? Today we're going to be unboxing the Carta by Focus V. So when you open this carrying case, you're going to have the actual device here. We've got the titanium bucket. We've got some quartz buckets. We've got a carb cap, a charger, and then some alcohol wipes in there too.
So to use this device, you just press this five times. It's going to vibrate and show you how much battery life is on there. And then you press it once and it's going to be on the lowest heat setting. Then if you just keep pressing that button, you can have the heat go up. And then once it turns green, then it's ready to go.
So when you go to charge your device, we've got the charging port in the back, and then it's going to plug into anything that has a USB port. So when you go to use it, you're going to want to throw your product in this bowl here and then go ahead and cap it. You're going to heat it up. It's going to start heating up. Then once it turns green and vibrates, you're good to go.
So that was the unboxing of the Carta by Focus V. You can pick one of these up at any Myxed Up locations or at MyxedUp.com.
Come on down to your local Myxed Up Creations in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Grand Junction to check them out in person, or shop us online for the Carta V, or any other urban supply needs.
]]>When you're out on-the-go, you don't have time to adjust what you are doing to meet the demands of your product. Yocan's new Evolve Plus XL is created with the active customer mind. In this episode of Myxed Up TV, we welcome Good Time Guru Izzy Blazee (@izzy_blazee) to give you the rundown on why she's digging this new portable vaporizer by Yocan Vaporizers.
What’s up everybody? It's your girl Izzy Blazee here bringing you the latest, greatest and most amazing goodies with Myxed Up Creations. Over the next few weeks I'm going to be showing you some of the coolest products that I personally use that you should be using because, why not? Let's have the best experience that you can create. Today I'm bringing you the Yocan Evolve Plus XL. For a girl like me who's always on the go, I need something that can keep up with my lifestyle. I don't really want to change how I'm doing things for a product. And the Yocan doesn't demand that of me at all.
First of all, let's just talk about the color. It comes in five color options. I obviously chose rose gold because, you know, I'm beautiful. One thing that I really love is, I'm constantly dealing with sticky threading. The Yocan comes with a magnetic seal. One other thing that also helps it stay clean is the fact that it has a cap on the coil. So even if your pen falls or anything like that, once again, nothing is going to come out.
It's got a quad coil system. So you're going to see four in the shape of a square. It's going to give you the most consistent taste in a really great heat distribution, so you're not going to lose flavor on any of your product. One thing I also love about this, since I'm always on the go, is not having to put things in my pocket or carry an extra bag. My product can go right in the bottom in the silicone container. You can have two options because you know a lady needs options.
In addition to all that good stuff, I know you're probably wondering, how does it hit though? I'm going to tell you. It has this really great airflow valve that you can literally shift around to see how much vapor you're wanting to produce. Not only that, you have the quad coil, therefore you're going to get big rips, big hits, and the greatest flavor you can. Not only through usages of Evolve Plus give you everything you need, they literally give you everything you need.
You're going to have your micro USB. Your handy-dandy dab tool You're also going to have the option of putting it on a lanyard. Who doesn't like hands free? And also an extra quad coil. So like most pens, you're going to want to know how to turn it on, right? You're probably going to want to use it. It's going to be five clicks on, and five clicks off. You can pick up the Yocan Evolve Plus XL at myxedup.com or at any of the amazing Myxed Up locations out here in Colorado.
Time to get cooking, and the Magical Butter Herbal Infuser can get you started with ease. Designed to infuse a slew of herbs into a variety of different products such as butters, lotions, tinctures and more. Today we take you inside the Magical Butter Kitchen with Chris Whitener as we show you just how easy it can be to infuse your foods for daily consumption.
Todd: What's going on, everybody? Todd here from Myxed Up TV, and today we're in the Magical Butter kitchen with my buddy, Chris Whitener.
Chris: What's up, Todd? How you doing?
Todd: Good, man. Just hanging out, man. Thank you so much for inviting us down to learn a little bit about your machine.
Chris: Absolutely. We're really excited to bring this Magical Butter machine and teach everybody at home exactly how it works.
Chris: So this is the Magical Butter Botanical Extractor. It's ideal for creating butters, oils, and tinctures at the touch of a button. It comes complete with a purify filter bag, a silicone LoveGlove, and an owner's manual so you know exactly what to do. So let's show you what it's all about.
Chris: This is the Magical Butter Botanical Extractor. You have your powerful immersion blender here, sharp blade, temperature thermostat, and overflow sensor. The machine can hold two to five cups of liquid, and you can process anywhere from a half ounce all the way up two and a half ounces.
Todd: Two and half ounces of herbs?
Chris: That's right.
Todd: Holy cow, those are good brownies, huh?
Chris: Very user friendly experience. You have the one hour setting for cooking oils, coconut oils. Two hour button for creating butters. And the four hour setting for creating alcohol tinctures.
Todd: Nice, so what are the other buttons for then?
Chris: We also have an eight hour stand alone cycle if you want to go slow and low and a blend/clean function.
Todd: Oh, that's pretty convenient.
Chris: So the machine comes complete with your purify filter bag, and this is just a mesh nylon bag perfect for straining out all the sediment from your infusions. So when the machine is finished, it's going to get all mixed up, all the plant matter will be chopped up. Pour it right through this filter.
Chris: So we have here a tincture that we went ahead and set at 130 degrees for four hours.
Todd: Okay.
Chris: Show you exactly how easy it is to strain out your product. So you get your purify filter bag.
Todd: Okay.
Chris: And this LoveGlove is perfect to keep your hand clean and safe. So we'll go ahead now and slowly pour this through the filter into our catch container. We've got 28 grams of decarboxylated flour in there, and now we're going just let that naturally strain out. And using our LoveGlove, we can give it a nice squeeze to get every last drop.
Todd: And it could also save you some money in the long term.
Chris: Absolutely, I know for a small two ounce bottle of tincture, it's pretty pricey. You can make a whole batch, and it'll last you all year long.
Todd: So Chris, how much is one of these things at Myxed Up?
Chris: Well Todd, you get the complete Magical Butter kit including the botanical extractor, the purify filter bag, and the silicone LoveGlove, all for $220.
Todd: Man, that's awesome. And you can also check them out at Myxedup.com , and we'll even ship them right to your house.
Chris: Wow, that's great.
Todd: Isn't it? Man, thanks so much for having me out here today, Chris. I super appreciate it, man. It's been a fun trip. Thanks everybody out there. We really appreciate our Myxed Up family. As always, I'm Todd, and this is Myxed Up TV. We'll see you later.

Hey everybody. Todd here for Myxed Up Creations, and today we’ve got a great new product for you it's called The Flower Power Grinder. It's a brand new revolutionary electric herb grinder that you can only get from Myxed Up Creations right now. So stay tuned with us. What we're going to do today is open this guy up. We’re gonna show you all the ins-and-outs how to use it and it even has a few specialties to it as well, so stay tuned.
Alright folks, thanks for sticking with me. Today we're going to be showing you The Flower Power Grinder. It's a new electric grinder on the market. Really nice. At first glance this box looks great. I mean look at all the detail they’ve put into this. Nice front window. Very hard and sturdy designed box. Let's get into this and take a good look. Very nice and sturdy right out of the box here. So this is it folks. Very nice. It’s got the lid on the top. Grinding plate on the bottom there. This part comes out for your pan, so everything locks in nicely together here so it doesn't pop out on you. And this is your lid for your bowl that goes nice on top. Then you just push down. That turns it on. Super simple. We're going to actually... we’ll plug this in and grind a little bit for you here in a second. I’ll show you what else comes in this box so. Here we have the vacuum lid. This actually goes down on top of here, and I'll show you the vacuum pump for that guy in a little bit. This other lid, this is actually a lid for your grinder. So after you're done grinding if you have to put your stuff in here you can put a lid on this so you don't get any dust or anything else inside of your actual grinding wheel. Next in the box I have the pump. So this is the vacuum pump that comes with the grinder. Pretty simple. This guy sits down on top of here. Give it a few pumps. I'll definitely show you how that all takes care of as well. You're also going to get a nice silicone brush as you can see here. Flower Power silicone brush. This is both to get out of here and out of here, and helps you keep your terps and stuff, they don’t really stick or anything else, get’s all that out. Let’s see. We’ve got an instruction manual. Looks like some caution guidelines and some assembly. Very simple. And then an extension cord, so that way if you're too far away from your wall, you just plug that into that and it goes even further. But for today, I’m not going to need to use the extension cord. I have a cord right here already. Plug that in. Alright. And we are going to do a demo here with some dried herbs for you guys, so you can see what we got here. I'm going to go ahead and take and put some herb in there. And we’re gonna take this herb and just drop it right down inside of here. Very simple. Take this, put it right on top of your bowl. It sits on really nicely. And then all you have to do is just give it a nice buzz. I’ll try and turn it so you can see it a little bit. Pretty simple, I mean that was literally like a second. You can do it one more second. Once it stops, turn it upside down and everything falls out right into your jar. As you can see, there's a little bit down in there, but that’s what our brush is for. And that looks actually really good in there. But if you're not going to use up all of your herbs, what you'll do next is you can take your lid here, and that goes down on top. And if you look right here, there’s a little tiny nipple. So what’ll happen is, we’ll put this pump on top of here. And then we’ll pull up, and pull up. And if you do that like three times. And then, we’ll look at our lid. See that little button right there how it’s depressed? That means we’re vacuum sealed. So there you go. Nothing's gonna come out. It’s gonna stay nice and fresh inside of your jar here. Pretty easy to get off there. You just pop it open. Other than that though it's a pretty nice unit. I really enjoy this guy. The new blade system in there has been reworked. Usually, you know, a basic coffee grinder... you'll burn out a coffee grinder in maybe a month or two. But with these guys, they’ll go through maybe 20 different coffee grinders before you would go through one of The Flower Power Grinder. So really tried and true on that. The motor in there is a 5000 RPM motor, 200 watt motor. So it really does very well with the grinding. It really gets a lot done. You can do almost up to an ounce, I think, at a time in this grinder. If you're having trouble with your hands, you have arthritis or anything. Just the simplicity in all of this just makes it easy for anybody. If you roll a lot or vape a lot, you might need something like this. If you're doing teas or even potpourri, you can grind pretty much any herb up that you would like, so. Thanks for watching this tutorial guys. We appreciate it. Remember, The Flower Power Grinder.
Alright guys, as you can see, The Flower Power Grinder is going to be one of the new revolutionary electric grinders on the market. You can pick these up at all Myxed Up Creations locations. You can pick ‘em up at myxedup.com. You can pick them up at flowerpowergrinder.com. Make sure that if you like our videos and our tutorials do you subscribe to the link below.

]]>Today on Myxed Up TV Todd gives us an overview of all of the Detoxify Brand detox products carried at Myxed Up Creations. Detoxify is a leader in the personal detoxification industry, for those people who are serious about periodic intensive cleansing. Detoxify offers both temporary as well as permanent detoxing solutions. These detoxes are great for all unwanted toxins and work for any weight class and body type. We are proud to carry a wide variety of Detoxify products. If your looking to restore your body to healthy balance, Detoxify is the way to go.
You can find Detoxify Brand detox products, as well as many other personal detox and wellness products at any of our four Colorado locations in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Grand Junction, Colorado.
Hey everybody. Todd here. And today we're going to talk to you about a detox product that we carry here at Myxed Up Creations. The name brand, Detoxify. Detoxify is a great detox product that works for all slew of toxins across the board. And it’ll work for any weight size. So big or small, this is the detox that’ll get rid of it all. They have a few different styles. So you can get three different flavors in the Ready Clean. These will need a 48-hour pre-cleanse time where you can't have any toxins, as well as an Xxtra Clean that comes in the tropical fruit. This one we would recommend for a larger heavy toxin user. The Green Clean and Mega Clean these will work instant, same day. So no pre-cleanse time needed. The Green Clean is two small bottles that you can take. They kind of tastes like green tea. The Mega Clean is a big bottle already mixed, but you’ll have to fill this up with water and drink that whole entire thing with water. We do carry a Constant Cleanse that will have you permanently clean. The Ever Clean is a 5 day program. And then we have the Constant Cleanse program which is a 20 day Herbal thing. So once you're done with those 5 day or 20 day regiments then you'll be completely clean as long as you stay toxin-free. With all these you can also take a PreCleanse Herbal pill. I would recommend these before you take the Detoxes. They’ll help your body align so that way they’ll help you get rid of the toxins faster. You can pick all of these up at Myxed Up Creations or at myxedup.com. And feel free to, you know, subscribe to all of our YouTube videos, see us out on Instagram and come back and we'll talk to you again later.

It comes with a 3-in-1 vaping system. It'll smoke your nicotine vapes. It'll smoke your salted vapes as well as waxes and shatters in the new coil system. Today what we're going to do is we're going to open it up, show you all the different features, the batteries and all the extras that come with it. If you guys enjoy these little videos, make sure you're hitting that subscribe button so you don't miss out on anything. Stay tuned. This is the Evolve 2.0.
Thanks for sticking with us everybody. Here we have the Yocan Evolve 2.0, super nice little vape. Let's go ahead and open it up, shall we? There it is. I'll go ahead and put the lid to the side here. This is our Yocan 2.0 3-in-1 vaporizer, really nice unit. This one here is a rose gold. It's a real nice little unit there. Let's go ahead and set that down. In the box you're also going to get a couple different things. You're going to get your how to use pods card. It's going to show both your regular nic and salted nic pods as well as your coil pods for shatters and waxes. I'm going to set that down. Now we have our Yocan Evolve 2.0 instructional manual. This you're going to want to keep a hold of. It's going to go through all your different parts, functions, how to use it, how to fill, what each pod's for. You'll definitely want to keep this thing. We'll go ahead and keep going here as we jump in.
Here we have your Evolve 2.0 cartridges. These cartridges, you're going to get 3 different ones in your Evolve 2.0. These two cartridges here are going to be for your E-juices like nicotine vapes. Your white one or clear one here on this side has a smaller hole on the side. This is going to be more for your regular styled nic salt E-juices. You're also going to have your green top here which is a thick oil pod. You could do a thick THC oil or something like that. Your thicker juices you'll want to put in here, or even a high VG juice.
Your third tank is actually already here on top of your vape battery. To remove it, you're just going to pull off the top just like that. It's magnetic, very simple to do. Then these pieces actually just pop off here and you can see right down in the coil there. This is a dual quartz coil there that you could see on the bottom. This would be designed for your shatters, waxes, hash solid concentrates, things like that. Once you would put your product in there you would just drop your top right back on there and then magnetically insert right into your lid. You're also going to be getting a USB charger in your kit, micro USB, pretty standard in the vape community. If you've got a nice Android or a lot of different charging units today, they usually use a micro USB, so pretty easy to get.
Now when you want to use this guy, what we're going to do here is we'll go ahead and turn this one on. You get five taps on the button and then it flashes on. Now when I tap the button you can see that it turns on. Five more taps and it'll flash at you and now it'll turn itself off so when I touch the button it doesn't turn on. We'll go ahead, one, two, three, four, five, turn it back on here. Now what I'm going to try to do is just pull off the regular top and leave the coils in here. Let's see if I hold the button down and show you guys just how it heats up. You can see there it's starting to heat up. You've got a little bit of glow in there. There it goes. I want to get it closer to the camera for you. There we go.
Very nice, heats up very quickly. Make sure when you're filling this that you don't touch the coils. You don't want to poke the coils in there. You also don't want to touch any metal to it while it's on. It got a little out of focus there. Very easy to use. Put our lid back on here. Five more taps, one, two, three, four, five, and it'll flash at you. What's really nice about this is it's nice and sleek, but if you wanted to you could have multiple vaping functions for your night out. Pull off your concentrate top when you don't want to smoke any concentrates. You can just throw in your standard vape tops. Toss a vape top in, vape on it a little bit. Oh, you want to go back to your waxes and shatters? Just pop it out, simply just as this. Pull it out, pop it back in, the next one, and then you can go to town.
Very, very simple overall unit. It looks like you're going to get about a ... Oh, there's three different adjustable temperature settings as well. To change those temperature settings what we're going to do is go through on our button here, one, two, three, four, five, turn it on. Now that we're on, we're blue. We go one, two, three, it's going to change. Now we're at our green setting. Then one, two, three, it's going to change and we are now at our white setting. White, blue, green is your different settings there. One, two, three, change to blue.
As you can see, you can be able to heat it up or cool it down for different temperature settings, which really work well with the quartz coils. One, two, three, four, five, turn it back off and then you're ready to go. Toss it into your pocket and do whatever you want. Super nice little unit there. Battery life is only about a 650 milliamp battery. You're not going to get a whole lot of use out of it, but with the smaller coil styles and stuff you'd get a nice full day out of it. It only takes about an hour or two for charging so it's a quick charge unit as well. Really nice little unit overall. I hope you guys enjoyed this one, the Yocan Evolve 2.0.
Well there you have it. Pretty simple, isn't it? The Evolve 2.0, super sweet little new vaporizer, especially if you guys are into nicotine salts as well as regular juices and even the shatters and dabs every now and again. Really, really nice little unit there. I hope you guys really enjoyed this. Make sure you're hitting that subscribe button there at the end. As always, I'm Token With Todd and we appreciate you guys. We'll see you next time.
So it's safe to say Yocan has taken the evolve to the next level with it's three in one vaping system. if you would like to check out the Yocan Evolve 2.0 in person, you can stop bye any of our local Myxed Up Creations locations in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Grand Junction.

]]>Quartz Bangers are a style of nail used for smoking concentrates inside of a rig or a water pipe. Today we're going to go over a bunch of different styles that we carry from the most generic, to the high roller. We've got a few rigs to show you, and personal preference of mine on one of the nails, how to use it, how to take a dab, and how to keep your quartz bangers clean.
April 20th was supposed to be the big day! 4/20 2020! But it wasn't the celebration that many of us had in mind. While "4/20" and "social distancing" don't exactly go hand-in-hand, Myxed Up Creations and Yolo Rum were determined to do what we could do to bring the 420 celebration to you!
We've been celebrating April 20th 4/20 for 27 years and we weren’t about to let some global pandemic stop the tradition. Even though the traditional 420 celebrations may have gone up in smoke, Myxed Up Creations and Yolo Rum wanted to make sure that the two and a half decade long celebration streak continued with ZoomPuff LIVE.
The online music festival and live smoke session featured music performances from 4x Grammy-Nominated Bizkit N Butta on the Keytar, Howi Spangler from Ballyhoo!, Kenner from Resinated, musician and tour manager for Slightly Stoopid and SOJA Eric Swanson, and Ted Bowne from Passafire.
The online session also included a live Zoom conference room setup for everyone to enjoy 4:20pm (MDT) on April 20th 2020, together, as a community, at the same time.
So grab something to blaze! And let’s party like it’s 4:20 on 4/20 2020!
Pro tip: Start the video at 3:30 local time to enjoy the community smoke session at 4:20.
]]>Myxed Up Creations was excited to celebrate our 9th annual More20 event on Saturday October 19th and Sunday October 20th. More20 was born in 2010 and has become our official customer appreciation celebration, and the perfect way to bridge the gap to the next 4/20. A full year is too long to wait between 4/20 parties and Myxed Up Nation deserves a day that belongs to them, so this one is for you Myxed Up Fam! Let's show some love for the people that really make this happen, our AMAZING Myxed Up customers!
When you walk into any Myxed Up Creations location, you can always count on being greeted with a smile! The positive energy and vibes that we get back from our customers on More20 and 4/20 is contagious! There is always an excitement and an anticipation leading up to the big days, and when the doors open up, you can feel the #MyxedUpLove in the air! Within minutes of officially opening at 10 o'clock the legendary grab bags were already almost sold out. And just like that, we had our first Golden Ticket winners! And the first of many winners throughout an awesome More20!
More20 means that the Myxed Up Mushrooms get to come out and play. The reactions as the mushrooms frolic about the store is always quality! You just never know what people are going to say or do in response to seeing the biggest mushroom they have most likely ever encountered.
One of the pillars of the cannabis community are the glass blowers that make the art that we all love so much. The unique hand blown glass made by local artists are an important part of any thriving scene. As often as we can, we try our best to highlight these amazing artists to draw attention to their impressive skill set. One of the best ways we can do that is to showcase these artists at work at our 4/20 and More20 events. Once again we would like to thank these guys for coming down and spending their 420 with us!

Thanks to improvements in technology, the rise of the smartphone and the growth of indie gaming, video games are more popular, accessible, and stimulating than ever. So what happens when you infuse your favorite digital pastime with cannabis? Find out with Myxed Up!
Whether you’re a fan of the latest gaming trends or stick to the classics, video games are one of our most popular pastimes for a reason. Not only do video games stimulate our imaginations and provide us an escape from the monotony of the day-to-day, these also provide gamers with a feeling of control that usually comes with the satisfaction of having learned—and mastered—a particular skill set or gameplay scenario.
Imagination also plays an important role here; in a world filled with uncertainty, in the virtual world, a gamer can be whomever or whatever they’d like. From zombie-killers to dragons or renegade soldiers. When it comes to cannabis and video games you’re only limited by your imagination- and how much weed you have at your disposal.
One major factor affecting our online engagements and video game engagements, is the lack of real world consequences, especially when you make a mistake. For example, in a video came, you can build your own empire, jump off of a bridge, or lift an entire school bus on your own because there are no “real life” factors at play that would result in negative consequences if you fail. Instead, you have the luxurious option of taking another toke and using as many lives as you need to develop a winning strategy.
Did you know that there are professional gamers out there making hundreds of thousands of dollars just by playing video games? Professional American gamer Johnathan Wendel (Fatal1ty) did just that. Considered by many as “the first, and best, electronic competition player ever,” Wendel has earned over $450,000 in prize money during his career playing First Person Shooter games like Call of Duty, Doom 3, Counter-Strike, and more.
Wendel isn’t the only gamer to hit the big time. In fact, all eight of the highest paid video gamers in the world average almost half-a-million dollars each in annual prize money winnings. In addition to their winnings from tournaments or competitions, many of the top-tiered gamers also have some form of sponsorship or promotional income they earn passively or by playing in paid forums.
While more study is needed, some researchers believe that cannabis and gaming can be good for you. This is because video games, particularly newer ones, can help improve your hand-eye coordination while cannabis has been found to deliver significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties in lab studies. Together, the combination of reflex exercises and cannabis have the potential to deliver therapeutic benefits when it comes to lowering stress levels and exercising your brain.
Video games and cannabis may also help those coping dementia or Alzheimer’s by helping improve short-term memory retention. According to a test study performed by the Groningen Mental Enhancement Department in the Netherlands, scientists found that use of cannabis while gaming led to increased memory retention amongst Alzheimer’s patients.
According to one researcher:
“All the test subjects played increasingly challenging games each day, but half the group was also administered smoke. Would you believe that the marijuana test group scored 43 percent better memory retention than the control group? It was a far greater benefit to the marijuana-administered group than we could have imagined."

What's up, everybody? It's your girl, Izzy Blazee, here with Myxed Up Creations, bringing you the latest, greatest, and hottest products on the market. Things that I would use, that you should use, so you can have the best experience.
Listen, we've all done it. You've grabbed your glass, put it in a t-shirt, put it in a backpack. You've wrapped it up in your mom's favorite towel that you know you shouldn't have, but you did, and now it smells bad. You don't want to go out and about constantly worrying about your glass, but also not taking care of your investment. One of my favorite things is not only rolling with nice glass, but rolling in style.
Dime Bags helps me do just that. It's literally got all of the options for all the girls and boys, who go and play with the big toys. You got a spoon, something simple, maybe a nectar collector, it's perfect for these small pouches. It also comes with a smell-proof bag.
Maybe you just want to take the coolest glass that you have, the biggest one, but you really want to cradle it like a baby. You can literally cradle it like a baby. You have the options of bigger sizes, more inserts, and a lot more safety options. So, in addition to the style, the color, the sizes, everything like that, probably one of the most important things that I care about and you'll care about as well is the odor. Is it going to smell? Especially when it's already been a piece of glass that's been used, that you're transporting back home to clean up. It is smell-proof. So, you're going to take care of your stuff, you're going to be protected, not only your glass, but yourself.

]]>Myxed Up 420 2019 was an epic one indeed, and you couldn't possibly have ever asked for any better circumstances for this one. The weather was sunny and warm, and spring was in step. And this year, Myxed Up Nation's favorite holiday fell on a Saturday! It was the perfect temperature on the perfect day. It was every sunshine loving stoners dream come true! A feeling of positivity and energy filled the air.
The year 2019 was the 6th April 20th (4/20) with fully recreational cannabis in Colorado, and now there are 10 states (and Washington DC) with recreational cannabis laws already in the books. For some reason there was this overwhelming feeling that the 4/20 holiday has officially moved from a counterculture phenomenon to the mainstream, peeling back a new layer of social acceptance. Welcome to Colorado where you wouldn't be at all surprised if the person sitting next to you at church on Easter Sunday smelled like weed from their 4/20 party the night before.
The day started out quickly at the brand new Myxed Up Creations location in Colorado Springs and Aurora as the sidewalk sales got the vibe right early. Dabbin Dan was slanging glass with a frenzy and deals were being made left and right! Between the line out the door of the dispensary next door and the crowded sidewalk sale, the scene was a party without a doubt. Within minutes of officially opening at 10 o'clock the legendary grab bags were already almost sold out.
One of the highlights of this year's 4/20 was, without a doubt, our stores 420 Zong raffle. We called the winners of each stores Zong raffle winners first thing in the morning on Saturday, and I think it's safe to say we made it a very memorable 4/20 for 4 very lucky individuals.
One of the pillars of the cannabis community are the glass blowers that make the art that we all love so much. The unique hand blown glass made by local artists are an important part of any thriving scene. As often as we can, we try our best to highlight these amazing artists to draw attention to their impressive skill set. One of the best ways we can do that is to showcase these artists at work at our 4/20 and More20 events. Once again we would like to thank these guys for coming down and spending their 420 with us!

At 3:00pm we had the motherload of grub arrive to satisfy all of our munchies! Now we had a chance to fill our bellies with some delicious food. By now the music was pumping at all of our stores! Yes, now it was a party! And with only an hour until 4:20pm, the smoke session of the year, it officially felt like the 4/20 vibe was right on point!
As with other recent editions of Myxed Up 420, one of the main highlights of the day was the music. Once again we had musicians with a wide range of musical styles come down to the shops and share their talents with all of the Myxed Up Fam!

The icing on the cake for every Myxed Up 420 in recent memory has always been the raffle. Up for grabs this were were three levels of Phill's Bills winners. $250 for first, $100 for second, and a $50 spot for third. We also had the pleasure of dishing out three more prizes at each location, with Dab Box and Dab Box Kings from Snowcloudz, as well as a High5 E-nail! Seeing the smiles on the winners faces makes it a highlight that is hard to top.
After the exciting conclusion of the raffle we tried to make sure that no one walked away empty handed, as we gave away a boatload of t-shirts to anyone and everyone that stuck it out to the end. And with that, another amazing 420 was in the books. Finally, it was time to kick off our shoes and enjoy 4/20 as a participant!
Thank you again to all of the Myxed Up Fam that came out to make this 4/20 another epic excursion! You are the people that truly make this possible each and every year! The countdown to 4/20 2020 is on!

Like I’ve said before, I'm constantly on the go. I love my glass, but I don't want anything to happen to it and then I get tired of carrying my torch and all of those things. So how can I get that fixed? The one thing that I absolutely love, My Happy Dab Kit. The Happy Dab Kit comes with everything you need. Not only does it come with the case that's basically protecting your glass, no more big torch lugging around. It has the perfect sized torch that delivers the right amount of heat to heat up your titanium tip. The titanium tip is going to provide maximum heat. Don't worry about breaking anything or getting anything too hot. They provide two silicon containers.
As I mentioned before it comes with the titanium tip, that is inserted right into the glass like so. You're just going to apply the heat to the end of the titanium tip for about 20 seconds. After that you're going to lightly hover over your product in the silicone container or a container of your choice. And have a great time.

]]>As many experienced cannabis consumers know, there is an art to rolling the perfect joint or blunt. That means choosing the right cannabis rolling papers or blunt wraps can make or break your experience. Discover how to roll with the best of them by starting with the right materials.
Cannabis rolling papers are made from a number of different materials, including hemp, rice, wood pulp, paper, palm leaves, and even cellulose. Regardless of the rolling paper you opt for, it’s important to keep a few points in mind before choosing your rolling paper:
Given the wide array of options when it comes rolling papers, it’s important to know that some rolling papers are treating with bleach and other chemicals that are potentially harmful. Because of this, brands like Raw and King Palms, have been able to establish themselves through providing cannabis consumers with high-quality, unbleached rolling papers at a reasonable price point.
The Difference Between White and Brown Rolling Papers
Depending on the source material and manufacturer, rolling papers have different porosities, some of which help control ventilation and burning rate. Cannabis rolling paper can contain additional chemicals that slow down the burning, or otherwise stabilize the paper, its smoke, and even its ash. Typically, white rolling papers will have a chemical aspect because of the addition of chlorine or calcium carbonate, to help slow down your joint’s burn. Using a glass tip or filter can also help you make the most of your green and avoid burned fingertips.
Size Always Matters when it comes to Joints
Other factors to consider when choosing your rolling paper include size and thickness. Rolling papers come in a variety of sizes, spanning the traditional joint (approximately 3-4 inches) all the way to sizes that are almost a foot long. While there aren’t any official industry standards (yet), common sizes include:
In addition to size, the thickness of your rolling paper will define how fast and the temperature at which your joint will burn. (Pro Tip: Typically, thinner rolling papers allow more air to pass through the joint, providing a slower and more consistent burn.)
Savor the Flavor of Your Smoke
With hundreds of flavors available from dozens of companies, flavored or printed joint papers can add a bit of flair and flavor to a group smoke session or a solo puff party. Alternately, if you truly enjoy the taste of cannabis flower, opting for organic rolling papers is a sure fire way to preserve the integrity of your cannabis experience.
Stay Classic with Wood Pulp
Wood pulp rolling papers are one of the most popular kinds of rolling papers for a number of reasons. Their texture makes them easy to handle, and can also be blended with other fibers, making them a dynamic material to work with. While wood pulp rolling papers are available in different thicknesses (as well as bleached or unbleached) on average, these papers are thicker and have more texture than more modern papers.
Rock Your Roll with Rice Paper
With all-natural ingredients, the best rice rolling papers are usually thinner and smoother in texture than other rolling papers. While rice rolling papers are often easier on a users’ lungs, the texture, thickness and size of the papers may make rolling a difficult task for beginners. More delicate than other papers, rice joint papers are also prone to deteriorate in damp conditions.

From rolling the perfect joint to finding the best water pipe, start your day the right way by learning about the different ways cannabis can enhance your life with Myxed Up!
]]>A fine balance in creation has taken place to create the perfect brand of rolling papers anyone is sure to enjoy. Raw is an all natural unrefined rolling paper brand that uses only the best paper and hemp without added chemicals, Even the gum is unrefined plant sap without any glues. Let's check out a few of the many products we carry at Myxed Up Creations in this short video from MyxedUpTV.
Hey guys this is Todd for Myxed Up. Today I'm going to talk to you about a company that we carry here in the shop it's named Raw. Raw carries everything from papers to tips, rollers, grinders, trays they pretty much have everything across the board for your smoking accessory needs. And the cool thing about Raw a lot of their papers that they do, everything is going to be an unrefined paper. So they do no bleach just like all the white papers you see out there. These are unbleached papers they also do an unbleached unrefined hemp paper as well, and you can get that in pretty much every size across the board. You've got your singles, your one and a quarters, one and a half's, king size, supreme kings, and they have literally everything you can think of.
A couple cool things that they've been doing lately that we've been picking up they have a 20 stage rocket. That guy carries 20 cones seven different sizes so there's a whole bunch in there. We also have a smaller one the 5 stage rocket. That guy has five different size cones kind of just Russian nested inside of each other. We have king size and one and a quarters in standard cones that you can stuff yourself with tips already. Rollers in all the sizes. Plus trays, you can get small trays all the way up to some pretty large ones. And another cool thing is if some of you are some fans, Wiz Khalifa has actually done a line with Raw, the loud packs, and he even has his own rolling tray. So that's a pretty nice one there but you can get all of these here at Myxed Up they even had a nice Santa Cruz shredder style Raw grinder which is very nice. Does a lot of really good work if you if you need the grinders.
A pretty cool thing if you're into it, if you want to smoke a couple cones at a time, they have a double-barrel and the Trident. You can literally put two or three cones in these guys and smoke them. Or if you just like a single cone I prefer these right here. They're a Raw glass tip basically. You can roll it into your jay and it doesn't get wet, doesn't get flat, doesn't spit on you so that's a really nice one. They also have king-size papers, little trays and things you can hold all your stuff in. So a really nice company they've been around for a while, from Spain. So come on down to Myxed Up pick up your stuff and then maybe we can smoke out together.
With all this and more it's no wonder that Raw Rolling Papers and products are genuinely invested in having an amazing product while being safe for you and the environment. If you would like to see more about Raw, please stop in to any of our Myxed Up Creations Locations in Denver, Aurora, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Grand Junction. Or you can see an entire list of products online in the Raw Rolling Papers Collections at Myxedup.com.

With legal consumption of many different herbs, it's no wonder new ways of enjoying these products have been hitting the forefront of today's social scenes. Smoking from a hand pipe or rolled joint has been a solid standard, and edibles have been an amazing way to consume without combustion and flame at all. The newest and hottest growing way to enjoy your consumption is called Dabbing.
Dabbing is the action of taking highly concentrated products (i.e. wax, shatter, oil, etc...) and smoking or vaping them over a heated hot nail. There are many different ways to accomplish your dab. Dabbing 101: How to take a dab, will break down the basics of dabbing into five topics to help you create the best dabbing experience.
Concentrates come in many forms, and choosing your type of product becomes a personal preference as the individual becomes more accustomed to the products available. When dabbing you will want to choose a solid or liquid style concentrate instead of a flower or dry herb. The concentrates have been broken down into a purer form and virtually eliminate their carbon output during consumption. This allows for maximum intake without the need to smoke a full bowl. Since the products are so concentrated it is recommended to start off small and find your own preference in size and taste.
Now that we have our product in order, it's time to choose the style of rig or water pipe you would like to dab from. Many older style water pipes may be converted for dabbing, so if you already have one handy you may want to try converting it with a nail or a banger first. When picking a new rig, you may run into a few styles that are unfamiliar. Smallest and most portable, the Mini Dab Straws and Micro Nectar Collectors make dabbing easy. Simply heat your dab straw tip and touch your product as you inhale from the other end. These simple but effective tools get the job done without breaking the bank.
When choosing a piece as your at home daily driver, the buyer may want a table top rig with more of a footprint. Larger rigs and water pipes can add quality and taste to your dabbing experience. Silicone Rigs are a great starter dab rig. Made of food grade silicone, these rigs are almost unbreakable, and the titanium dab nail will last for years.
Sticking with a more traditional glass rig like the Bent Neck Rigs with infused down stems.
The user can really see and feel the dabbing experience with this rig. They're not too big, and not too small. These rigs are a great glass piece to start off any collection. Larger style beaker and straight tube water pipes can also be used as rigs, and function as a flower piece as well.
Last but not least are the highest class of glass, mixing art and passion with a functional glass piece, also known as Heady Glass. There are lots of glass artist today making new styles of rigs everyday. From the old school artists with new school flare like Jerome Baker, the same artist that created the Cheech and Chong Bongs in the 80's.
Maybe you're into something with creatures or animals, then you may like pieces like the Green Fox Rig by Tyme.
There are lots of really great artists to choose from, so take your time and see what kinds of functions and style you want your rig to have.
Having nails for a rig are like having a bowl for a water pipe, just with a slightly different function. Nails are made in three basic materials: titanium, ceramic, and quartz. Each of these materials can also come in a variety of nails styles such as Bangers, Thermals, Drop-in's, ETC... When choosing the style of nail that is best for you, take your time to match your joint sizes and material best suited for your dabbing experience.
With dabbing, using a static flame lighter like a BIC or Clipper will not work. The flames from these lighters leave a carbon soot and take too long to heat your nail properly. You will need to either have a torch style lighter, or upgrade to an electric style nail such as HighFive E-Nails. Both of these heating sources work great for dabbing. Be sure to choose the heating source depending on your own personal rig and nail.
While heating your nail, make sure to heat your nail evenly, and not to get it too hot. As a rule of thumb, if the nail starts to glow then it's too hot, and you'll need to wait a few seconds to allow your nail to cool to a proper dabbing temperature. Remember dabbing is a preference, so learn what you like to make your dabbing experience the best that it can be.
Once you have your product, rig, nail, and heating source figured out, it's time to take your rig and dabbing station to the next level with dabbing accessories. Dabbing accessories range from your basic dab tools to your very ornate DabPadz.
Dab tools help you move your product onto your hot nail and keeps it easy to handle. DabPadz are a great accent piece to place under any rig, and keeps your glass from sliding around the table.
Other accessories such as Glob Swabs, Silicone Jars, Carb Caps, and Travel Hard Cases will make you a dabbing expert in no time.
Dab it all together and what have you got? The making of a perfect dab set up to create the perfect dabbing experience for your and your friends.
Now that you have everything you need to complete the perfect dab, it's time to take the next steps to success. Make sure you have your rig ready and filled with water if you have a water pipe. Use your dab tool and gather your product on the end of your tool, making sure it's not too big or too small for your own use. Take your heating source and begin to heat your nail while it is attached to your rig. Once your nail has reached a high enough temperature (*Glowing nails are TOO HOT. Let it cool.) it is time to take your dab. Place your dab, using your dab tool, in the dish of the heated nail while simultaneously inhaling from your rig. The product will vaporize and your dab will be complete. Now go out there and enjoy dabbing with all of your friends, knowing you have the knowledge and equipment of Dabbing 101: How to take a dab.
]]>Jason Harris, the legend, internationally recognized as Jerome Baker, was in Denver this week for the Champs Trade show, among other things. During his trip, he brought along with him a piece that is sure to become a legend in it's own right. Some will simply refer to it as the world's biggest Jerome Baker piece, and after coming in contact with this true gem, we can only refer to it by it's rightful name, passed down by the artist himself, the JBD "Nucleus Bong." Myxed Up Creations in Denver is thrilled to be hosting this piece, on display, for all to enjoy!
The piece weighs in at over 60 pounds. It sits at over 3 feet (about 38 inches) tall, and over a foot (about 14 inches) wide at the base. This massive sculpture is made from Uranium Glass and glows under a UV light. The uranium is kind of a metaphor for the radiating of the energy forever.
Please check out the video, that shows the process of making such an immaculate and immense piece! A world class team comprised of Jason Harris, Charles Lowrie, and others, gathers at the infamous "Makai" Glass Studio on Maui, Hawaii, and embarks on a magical journey through time and space to create one of the most powerful BONGs ever made!
In the video one of the artists involved sums up the project by saying, "What a composition. What an orchestration. What a blessing to live and work with such passionate people." And what a blessing for Myxed Up Creations to now be a part of this incredible story. This is a tribute to the Snodgrass Family, and the glass making movement of this generation. This Bong erected to symbolize a monument, and a movement in the arts history. This rich culture of glass makers will stand forever in time. A legendary piece that embodies a lifetime of work, and represents a whole generation of the lampworking movement up to this moment in time. And for now, this epic piece can call Myxed Up Creations, and Denver home!
