With the holidays coming up, what better time than now to start researching about different styles and brands of dab rigs for your favorite pothead (or maybe just for yourself). Dabbing has caught on in recent years and is now a big part of stoner culture. From the latest features and designs, to the hottest new recycler dab rig, there are lots of things to take into account when shopping for a new piece of glass.
What bongs are to dry herb, dab rigs are to concentrates. A dab rig is an essential tool needed for dabbing, the act of vaporizing potent cannabis extracts like wax, crumble, budder, or shatter. Dab rigs work exactly like your everyday bong, but have an upgraded bowl called a nail used specifically for high temperatures and even heating. Tabletop dab rigs are filled with water and sometimes have extra features like percolators or recyclers, which adds additional filtration.
When it comes to dabbing, technique and the type of concentrate used is just as important as the type of dab rig setup you have. Some people prefer the silky smooth vapor and simplicity of an e-rig, while others like to stick to the original method using a water bong, where they have full control of everything from the temperature to the airflow. Dab rigs typically fall into two general categories: tabletop dab rigs or e-rigs:
Also called portable dab rigs, these high-tech devices are easy to use and require less tools. This new type of dab rig has an internal heat source that automatically controls heating and cooling cycles for you and are made to be taken on the go. The latest product to change the dabbing game is the Airis Dabble 2-in-1 Vape which can be smoked like a vape or used instead of a dab nail to turn any bong or glass dab rig into a powerful e-rig.
This cheap dab rig resembles a bubblegum machine, complete with loose marbles that look like gumballs. The eight-inch Bubblegum Dab Rig comes in in green or pink and features a mini matrix percolator for comfortable dabs that don’t hurt the throat.
Some say too much filtration is a bad thing, but one dab from the Double Barrel Dab Rig and you’ll almost certainly disagree. The highlight of this percolator dab rig is the dual jellyfish percolators and curved neck. With this 11-inch glass dab rig, you’ll have silky smooth tokes every time.
