The titanium or quartz nail is inserted in place of a traditional sliding bowl, and is heated by the torch. In order to effectively consume concentrates, a torch, a rig with a titanium or quartz nail and dabbing tool are needed. While flower can be relatively simple to pack into a pipe, bong, blunt or joint, a few more tools are necessary for dabs. The method of dabbing is also more complicated than smoking flower. In combination with a titanium or quartz nail, a dab rig is the most optimal and efficient way to vaporize and consume concentrates. The most effective way to consume cannabis concentrates is dabbing with what is known as an "oil rig" or "dab rig." Rigs are essentially water pipes made for dabbing that are designed specifically to bring out the complete flavor profile and potency of the concentrate being consumed. While it is possible to use concentrates as a "bowl-topper" over flower, most consistencies other than bubble hash do not vaporize effectively with this method. Because of this, dabbing is often recommended for experienced or frequent smokers due to the high potency of the product. The effects of a dab usually come on stronger and quicker than smoking flower. For this reason, dabbing is much more economical for most users, as far less product needs to be consumed to reach optimal or desired effects. On average, the concentrate a consumer might dab has between 60-80% THC, compared to smoking cannabis flower which averages 10-25% THC. Often called "doing a dab" or "taking a dab hit," dabbing simply refers to the vaporization and consumption of a marijuana concentrate.
Dabbing as a Concentrate Consumption Methodĭabbing is the most popular way to consume marijuana concentrates. Remember that although most concentrates are known by their appearance, the real difference between most products is how it's made, not its final form.
In extraction, a solvent is just a liquid used to separate the psychoactive compound THC (as other cannabinoids and terpenes), from the cannabis flower. A solvent is just a liquid in which something is dissolved to form a solution. Let's go back to high school chemistry for a bit. Today, there are two main methods of creating cannabis concentrates, solvent-based and solventless extraction. While many concentrate products are similar in THC percentage, they all have different melting points, cannabinoid profiles and appearances. For example, the names shatter, wax, and budder all refer to the consistency of the concentrate, although it is the method in which they were created that determines the difference in melting points, and price. Most concentrates are named after their appearance. Lab-grade equipment is utilized for both solvent-based and solventless extraction methods, capable of producing a wide variety of different concentrate types and consistencies. Through developments in technology and further scientific and chemical discovery, concentrate extraction has become a highly sophisticated and modernized practice. Since hand-rolling Charas, extraction processes have come a long way.
