Dab rig questions

I’ve never dabbed. My buddy is a hash washer and is going to wash my outdoor and press into rosin. My question is, can I just put a banger on a bong, get a torch and be one my merry way to annihilation? I see peoples dab rigs and they look small and intricate with lots of recyclers and other weird shit. Is all that fancy glass necessary?

I think it’s the torch part that gives me hesitation, for the same reason as you stated…makes me feel like a drug addict haha

As a generalization, dab rigs are smaller than flower pieces. The recycler style rigs are more about enabling a long chug than filtration. Dab rigs don't need much filtration, so you don't normally see them with the various types of percs like flower pieces.

Torching is a pain in the arse. You have to time it (how long to hold the flame to the banger, and how long to cool down). It's very fiddly IMO, and I'd much rather use a pen. If you really want to make the most of your rig, look into getting an e-nail maybe.

I'm not a big fan of the whole banger and torch deal either..I do own a couple and use them every once in a while, but not typically my go to personally.

This lil piece is nice tho on the fly.. Quick n easy

It's called a 2n1 or dip'n'dab

It's got a bowl you can directly load to vaporize your extracts (shatter, budder, sauce, diamonds, etc)...the dab feature.

Also has the dip tip(to there right) that you can dip and hit straight into your jar, onto your extract, or what have you.

Pens and e-rigs are cool, but if youre smoking good hash, nothing really beats the experience of a rig and quartz banger. A lot of people have bad experiences because they are dabbing to hot, but like G said, if you can get a proper temp, its one of my favorite things in the whole world.

Here is a link to some super cheap, quality rigs, I have a seed of life klein from them and I love it...


Heres a link to decent quartz that doesnt hurt too bad if it breaks

Quartz

You can always use a handheld laser thermometer to temp your banger

But this is what I use

Dab Rite | Digital IR Thermometer

This is a cheaper Terp Timer,


hope this helps

Deebs had this I was using. Really discreet and convenient. Just gotta keep the chamber cleaned.
I’ve never gotten a chance to use the puffco pen yet, but I am a fan of the peak
