Who is the Crafty+ Vaporizer for?
The Crafty+ is the compact portable vaporizer from Storz & Bickel, the German makers of the Volcano. It delivers the same vapour quality as the larger Mighty+, in a body that disappears into a pocket. Even in 2026 it remains one of the most popular and consistently well-reviewed portables in our range.
The single button makes it a natural first vape. It is also forgiving about grind, fill level, and draw technique. The battery covers 4 to 6 sessions per charge. That suits people who charge overnight better than heavy all-day users. At this size, the Crafty+ is an excellent choice for relaxed, flavour-focused sessions at home or away.
Small, Light, and Built to Last
The Crafty+ weighs 135 g and is about half the size of the Mighty+. It sits comfortably in the palm and slips into a jeans or jacket pocket without a bulge.
The housing is made of PEEK, a medical-grade plastic that resists heat and carries no taste or smell. The mouthpiece swivels flat against the body for transport. The vape is made in Germany.
A clever tool hides in the base. One end tamps herbs into the chamber, the other scrapes it empty. The tool itself also covers the charging port to keep pocket lint out.
Hybrid Heating for Full Flavour
The Crafty+ uses S&B's patented hybrid heating, a mix of convection and conduction. It works like cooking with an oven and a pan at once: hot air flows through the herbs while the warm chamber walls heat them directly.
The hot air does the early work and brings out flavour. The contact heat then builds to finish the job. Used herbs come out evenly golden brown, with no stirring needed.
One press of the button and the vape is ready in about a minute. That pace suits relaxed ten-minute sessions, not quick single puffs.
Smooth Vapour from Five Cooling Ridges
Between the chamber and the mouthpiece sits the signature cooling unit. Five internal ridges lengthen the vapour path and add surface area, so it loses heat before it reaches your mouth.
The result is smooth, comfortable vapour, with flavour closer to what you would get from a desktop than from a pocket vape. That holds up even at the higher settings.
Airflow is rated at 10 L/min with very low draw resistance, so draws take almost no effort.
Three Temperatures from One Button
A single press switches the Crafty+ on and heats it to the base temperature of 180 °C. The LED glows red while heating and turns green when it reaches the set temperature. The vape also vibrates the moment it is ready. That way you do not have to watch the LED at all.
A double click activates the Booster, which raises the target temperature by 15 °C to 195 °C. A second double click activates the Superbooster at 210 °C, the top of the range.
Lower temperatures around 180 °C preserve lighter compounds and terpenes. Higher temperatures around 210 °C get more out of your herbs in fewer draws. That is why many owners start low and step up as the flavour fades.
A Web App You Set Up Once
The Crafty+ connects over Bluetooth to the free S&B Web App, which runs in a browser with no download needed. The app sets any exact temperature between 40 and 210 °C and adjusts the Booster steps. It also controls LED brightness, vibration, and auto shut-off.
The vape works fully without the app. The base temperature, Booster, and Superbooster settings cover daily use. Many owners open the app once to set their preferences and rarely return.
One setup tip: the serial number needed for pairing sits under the QR sticker on the base. Once connected, switch off the always-on Bluetooth setting in the app. Leaving it on drains the battery faster.
Chamber, Capsules, and Loading
The ceramic-coated chamber holds about 0.25 g of ground herbs, the same capacity as the Mighty+. The coating keeps residue from sticking, so the chamber stays clean session after session. Partial loads work fine, so you can pack only what you plan to finish.
Dosing capsules make loading even easier. These small aluminium cups hold about 0.15 g each. Fill them at home, drop one into the chamber, and swap it for a fresh one after the session. One capsule comes in the box. The same capsules fit across the full Storz & Bickel range.
You can expand the setup with a magazine that carries eight filled capsules, a keychain capsule caddy, and a filling kit that loads 40 in one sitting. All are sold separately.
How to Use the Crafty+
Now that you know the parts, here is how a full session goes:
- Loading: Grind your herbs to a medium consistency and fill the chamber, or drop in a pre-filled dosing capsule. For loose herbs, the tool in the base tamps the load level.
- Heating: Press the button once. The LED glows red. After about a minute it turns green and the vape vibrates.
- Inhaling: Take slow draws of 5 to 8 seconds through the swivel mouthpiece. The LED may flick back to red during the first draws. That is normal while the chamber comes back up to temperature.
- Boosting: When the flavour starts to fade, double click for the Booster at 195 °C. Double click again for the Superbooster at 210 °C to finish the load.
- Finishing: Hold the button for about a second to switch off. An automatic shut-off steps in if you forget. Use the scraper end of the base tool to empty the chamber while it is still warm.
Battery and Charging
Inside sits a sealed 3,300 mAh lithium-ion battery. It is good for 4 to 6 sessions per charge, or roughly 45 to 60 minutes of running time. It is built in and cannot be replaced. Charging once a day covers most usage patterns, much like a phone.
The USB-C port in the base means the Crafty+ charges from any phone cable or power bank. The box includes a USB-A to USB-C cable but no wall adapter. The vape runs while plugged in, though the battery does not charge during use.
A fast charger brings it to about 80% in roughly 40 minutes. A standard charger takes 60 to 90 minutes. The fast charger has a USB-C output, so it needs a USB-C to USB-C cable. That cable is not included with the vape or the charger.
Cleaning Takes Minutes
Day-to-day care is quick: brush out the chamber after sessions, and the ceramic coating does the rest. If you use dosing capsules, the chamber barely needs cleaning at all.
The cooling unit needs a deeper clean every few weeks. A small lock releases it, and the plastic parts can be soaked clean in isopropyl alcohol. Wash the silicone rings in warm soapy water and keep them out of the alcohol.
The gaps between the ridges on the body collect a little herb dust over time. Give them an occasional pass with the brush.
Many owners keep a spare cooling unit so a clean one is always fitted while the other soaks. The Wear & Tear Set, sold separately, replaces all the parts that wear out in one purchase.
Crafty+ vs Veazy
The Veazy is the newest compact portable from Storz & Bickel, sold at a similar price to the Crafty+. It is the brand's latest thinking on small vaporizers, and it takes the same dosing capsules and accessory sets.
The Crafty+ builds on a decade of proven performance. The design has been refined since 2014. A wide range of spare parts and accessories keeps the Crafty+ in use for years.
The Veazy suits anyone who wants the newest design. The Crafty+ is the time-tested classic.
Crafty+ vs Mighty+
The Mighty+ is the Crafty+'s larger counterpart and S&B's flagship portable. It has two battery cells for roughly double the sessions per charge, an on-vape display with temperature buttons, and full pass-through charging.
The Crafty+ delivers the same vapour quality in a body about half the size, at 135 g. Both hold 0.25 g, use the same heating system, and take the same dosing capsules.
Battery stamina and on-vape controls favour the Mighty+; pocket carry favours the Crafty+. If most of your sessions happen away from home, the smaller body wins.
Recommended Accessories
Right now we offer a 25% discount on all accessories when you buy any vaporizer here at MagicVaporizers. These are the add-ons we would pick for the Crafty+, starting with what the box leaves out.
USB-C Fast Charger (45W): The box includes a cable but no wall adapter. This charger fills that gap and brings the battery to about 80% in roughly 40 minutes. It needs a separate USB-C to USB-C cable, not included with the vape or the charger.

Dosing Capsules (40-pack): 40 more reusable capsules to expand your pre-loaded rotation.
Kit for Filling Dosing Capsules with 48 Capsules: The tray fills 40 capsules in one sitting with the grinder, plunger, and spatula, and 48 capsules are included.
Plunger for Dosing Capsules: Opens and closes capsule lids cleanly, with none of the bending you get by hand.
Crafty & Mighty - Filling Funnel: Screws onto the chamber so ground herbs slide straight in with no spills.
Water Pipe Adapter with Bubbler: Run the Crafty+ through water for cooler, gentler draws at higher temperatures.
Storz & Bickel - Accessory Set: Adds the grinder and filling aid that the box leaves out, plus screens, a brush, and a capsule caddy.
Crafty - Cooling Unit: A second unit means you can keep vaping while the first one soaks.
Crafty & Mighty - Mouthpieces (4-pack): Four spares so everyone in a shared session can fit their own.
Small Screens (6-pack): Once the old screens darken, fresh ones restore the airflow and bring back a cleaner taste.
