Lean or purple drank has become almost an epidemic in certain neighborhoods of the United States. The drink is a mixture of cough syrup with promethazine and codeine and sprite. Occasionally hard jolly rancher candy is added to increase sweetness. It is often abused and is an illegal use of a legal prescription based substance. People use lean to relax, slow down and release their minds from their problems. The lean slows them down so much that many users report feeling motor skill impairment, l …

The technology around vaporizing concentrates is constantly advancing, as a relatively new, high-tech method of consumption. Everything we know about concentrates continues to change as these advancements are made. From the materials used to produce them, all the way to the methods used to vaporize them we can see innovation. These advancements seem like they could change the way we see bangers entirely. In fact, some of the most recent advancements have changed the materials that bangers are …

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 …
