With the proliferation of vaporization and its related tools and technologies, there has been a corresponding increase in the use of concentrates. The preferred method and device for most connoisseurs to smoke concentrates is in a dab rig. With few exceptions, when using dab rigs, concentrates are heated in a nail or banger, the various benefits and disadvantages of which were discussed in a previous blog post. The large majority of nails and bangers must be heated with a torch to raise the …

The widespread use of concentrates has spurred a revolution in the methods of smoking concentrates and accessories used for dabbing. Carb caps have become a critical part of every dabber’s arsenal because of the science behind vaporizing wax concentrates. Despite being a relatively new development in the mainstream smoking community, there has been an evolution in the design of carb caps. The evolution has been closely correlated with the development of nails and bangers. We will look at t …

Low-temperature dabs have become an essential cornerstone in the concentrates smoking community. This is because the flavor is preserved at lower temperatures. So much of the innovation around bangers has been focused on achieving efficient vaporization that provides a terpene-rich flavor profile. Traditional nails and bangers relied on conduction to dab wax concentrates. However, as bangers evolve to more conveniently enable lower temperature dabs, convection is replacing conduction. The qua …

Vaporization of concentrates now comes in many shapes and sizes due to the demands of the current market. Perhaps the most popular method of vaping concentrates has become pre-filled vape cartridges. These are simply small e-cigarette tanks or vape pen cartridges with a 510 thread filled with concentrate oil. For the rest of the article, I will refer to them by their popular name, “vape pens” or “vape pen cartridges.” Some people who wish to try this relatively recent innovation do not have acce …

Dry herb vaporization has become the pinnacle gold standard of healthy dry herb consumption. This trend has emerged because vaporized dry herbs do not create many of the carcinogens and tars that are released upon combustion during smoking. There are two types of vaporization chambers utilized in dry herb vaporizers: the most common is a conduction oven while others use convection.Conduction ovens achieve vaporization when the plant material inside is directly …
