An Introduction To The Different Kinds Of Dab Accessories

If you’re seeking the most efficient way to take CBD, dabbing may be the way to go. CBD dabs contain up to 99% CBD, making them the most potent CBD extract available.

Whether you’re new to CBD or a seasoned cannabis user, dabbing might be frightening. Continue reading to learn about the many types of dab accessories and how they can help you consume CBD more effortlessly and with less waste.

Rigs For Dabbing

A dab rig is required to smoke CBD concentrates. If you’ve ever used a bong, you’ll be familiar with a dab rig! These are, in essence, modified bongs.

Rigs are glass pipes or bubblers that have a ‘nail’ or ‘banger’ attachment instead of the bowl attachments seen in bongs. This is significant because, in order to evaporate the concentrate, it must be heated to a greater temperature than the flower. These banger/nail attachments are heated to a high degree, then cooled for about a minute before applying a ‘dab’ of CBD concentrate within the banger or nail attachment with a dab tool.

Accessories For Dabbing

However, the requirements for dabbing do not end with the rig. There are a few necessities and a few that simply enhance the experience! We’ll go over each one and what to look for to get the greatest dab accessories.

Bangers In Quartz (Or Dab Nails)

To describe the replaceable element that fits into the downstream, the phrases “banger” and “nail” are used interchangeably. It’s where you put the concentrate and heat it up. This is similar to the bong bowls you may be familiar with.

These are manufactured of a variety of materials, the most common of which are quartz and titanium. Because nails will be heated to relatively high temperatures, they must be manufactured of extremely robust materials like these. They also differ from regular bowls in that they are typically attached at a 45-degree angle, allowing the concentrate to pool at the bottom of the banger for thorough vaporization.

Torches

Unlike a bong or pipe, where you can simply use a lighter to heat your flower, vaporizing concentrates requires more intense heat. This is why using a dab torch to heat your nail is far more efficient. After all, your concentrate must reach a temperature of at least 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and some require temperatures as high as 800 degrees.

Dab Tools Or Dabbers

Dab tools, like nails, are made from a range of materials, including quartz, titanium, stainless steel, and even glass.

Quartz is a popular choice because it heats up rapidly and is durable, although it loses heat quickly. Titanium and stainless steel are also long-lasting options. Glass is a lovely material, but it is also the most brittle.

The paddle, scoop, and pick are the three most typical dab tool tips. The paddle is ideal for versatility. If you want to use a variety of concentrates, a paddle-tipped tool may be ideal.

Carbohydrate Capsules

It’s a shame to waste your concentration, but thankfully, you don’t have to. Carbohydrate caps can help you get the most out of your CBD concentrates such as wax, shatter, or tinctures. Another advantage is that they help to keep your gear clean, which means less work for you later on.

They’re also quite simple to utilize. Place the carb cap over your banger after you’ve taken your initial hit and swirl it around. This will produce suction, preventing any residual concentrate from evaporating into the air.
