A method is provided for operating an electronic vapour inhaler (10) comprising an induction heating arrangement (34), the induction heating arrangement (34) comprising an induction coil (36) for generating an alternating electromagnetic field to heat an induction heatable element (28) and thereby heat a non-liquid flavour-release medium (30). The method comprises intermittently energising the induction coil (36) to generate an intermittent alternating electromagnetic field which provides pulsed heating and cooling of the induction heatable element (28).
