Dabbing is a technique used to consume cannabis concentrates, which are potent extracts of the plant. Here's how to dab properly:
1. Choose Your Dab Rig:
- Dab Rigs are specialized glass pipes designed for dabbing. They typically have a water chamber to cool and filter the vapor.
- E-Rigs are electronic devices that heat the concentrate using a heating element.
2. Prepare Your Concentrate:
- Choose a Concentrate: Popular options include wax, shatter, budder, and rosin.
- Use a Dab Tool: A dab tool, often made of metal or glass, is used to pick up the concentrate.
3. Heat Your Nail:
- Torch: Use a butane torch to heat the nail or atomizer to the desired temperature.
- E-Rig: E-rigs have built-in temperature controls.
4. Apply the Concentrate:
- Wait for the Nail to Cool: Allow the nail to cool slightly before applying the concentrate to prevent burning.
- Dab: Use the dab tool to place a small amount of concentrate onto the hot nail.
5. Inhale and Enjoy:
- Inhale: Slowly and steadily inhale the vapor through the mouthpiece.
- Exhale: Exhale the vapor through your nose or mouth.
6. Clean Your Rig:
- Regular Cleaning: Clean your dab rig regularly to prevent buildup and maintain optimal performance.
Remember to start with a small amount of concentrate and adjust as needed. Enjoy the experience responsibly!
