Welcome to LĒVO
Let's make your first infusion
Six simple steps take you from box to first batch, with the settings, recipes and care tips for your machine.
Step 1 of 6
Set up your LĒVO
Plug it in, press the button to pop the lid and click the reservoir into place. On the LĒVO C, just set the glass basin on the heat plate.
Full steps for your model are below. Watch the setup videos
Step 2 of 6
Get your settings right
This step matters most. The wrong time or temperature can overheat your machine, burn your herbs or leave you with weak, inconsistent potency.
Use the calculator below. On the II+ and Lux, keep the Pod Protector at the bottom of the Power Pod during Dry and Activate.
Step 3 of 6
Choose your ingredients
Dried herbs go straight into the pod. Fresh herbs need the Dry cycle first, which removes moisture to prevent mold and improve shelf life and potency.
Dry is on the II+ and Lux. Explore starter recipes
Step 4 of 6
Choose your carrier
Your carrier absorbs everything from your herbs: butter for baking, coconut oil for edibles and balms, glycerin for gummies and tinctures. Each has its own ideal temperature.
Step 5 of 6
Set it and infuse
Load your pod, add the magnetic stirrer after you dry or activate, set your time and temperature and press start. LĒVO holds it for the whole cycle.
Then dispense straight into an airtight jar. No straining needed. On the LĒVO C, pour from the glass basin.
Step 6 of 6
Clean up and go again
The reservoir, stirrer, drain tube and herb pod are dishwasher safe (top rack). Wipe the base with a damp cloth and never submerge it.
LĒVO C: the machine base is hand wash only.

How much herb fits in the pod?
The Power Pod in the LĒVO II+ and Lux holds ¼ oz (7 g) of dry herb of choice. The Jumbo Pod made for the LĒVO C holds up to 1 oz (28 g) for bigger batches.
Do I need to activate (decarb) my herbs?
Only for hemp or flower. The Activate cycle heats your herbs just enough to unlock their full effects before you infuse. Skip it for other herbs.
Fresh or dried herbs?
Both work. Dried herbs go straight in. Fresh herbs need the Dry cycle on the II+ or Lux first, which removes moisture to prevent mold and improves shelf life and potency.
When do I add the magnetic stirrer?
After you dry or activate, and before you start the infusion.
How should I store my infusion?
In an airtight container like a mason jar. On the LĒVO C you can also store it in the glass basin: let it cool completely, then refrigerate.
Will my kitchen smell?
Far less than a stovetop. The II+ has a sealed lid with a carbon filter, so aroma stays minimal with the lid closed. The Lux vents slightly through its DRY+ fan, and the C's standard lid releases a little more during Activate.
What does my warranty cover?
Every machine has a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty. LĒVO Care extends coverage up to three years and adds accidental damage.
