Dab Rigs

The one sized for how you dab. Five to ten inches suits most people, with mini rigs preferred for flavor and larger rigs for cooler, bigger draws. Glass gives the cleanest taste, silicone survives being knocked over.

The device is not stronger, the material is. Concentrates carry far more active compound by weight than flower, so a dab produces a much stronger effect than a comparable bowl.

Wax is one kind of concentrate. Dabbing is the act of vaporizing any concentrate on a hot surface, whether that is wax, shatter, budder or rosin. The method is the same, the texture differs.

Between five and ten inches covers most preferences. Taller rigs give vapor room to cool but lose flavor to condensation on the glass. Mini rigs concentrate the vapor and taste sharper.

Yes, but far less than a bong. Cover the downstem slits and no more. Too much water in a small chamber means you pull it straight into the mouthpiece.

A banger is the quartz bucket that replaces the bowl on a dab rig. You heat it with a torch, let it cool to the right window, then apply concentrate. Quartz is standard because it holds heat evenly and stays neutral.

Lower temperatures around 500F preserve flavor and terpenes. Higher temperatures produce more vapor and a harsher draw. Heat the banger, then let it cool for thirty to sixty seconds before dropping in.

Change the water after every few sessions. Soak the banger in isopropyl alcohol and swab it while still warm after each dab, which stops residue baking on and dulling flavor.

You can buy dab rigs here at Got Vape, in glass and silicone, alongside bangers, carb caps and dab tools.
