Am I doing this right?
    #21858766 - 06/26/15 07:24 AM (8 years, 7 months ago)

I'm very new to dabbing. I bought the rig with glass & ti nail for $35 I don't know if I'm doing this right lol...

I light up the nail for about 20 seconds or so with my blazer big shot torch (about half the size of the biggest flame possible) until it gets red hot then I wait approximately 10-15 seconds or so & put the oil onto the nail with my tool. But I've noticed that there looks like some leftover oil in the water in my rig. Am I wasting that? I've taken about 5-10 dabs since I got it yesterday.

That leftover stuff is called reclaim

And yeah man concentrated marijuanas can be very lethal I'd suggest you tread with caution

Haha. Honestly man, I'm not really "impressed" by it at all. This is most likely the last time I buy oil but I still want to get the most out of what I have. I'd rather just smoke nugs.

:whatever:

Dabs aren't better or worse in my opinion, they're just different. When I go through a concentrates phase my tolerance doesn't rise any higher than normal unless I have more than normal.

Just because it's potent doesn't mean you have to explode your head with giant amounts of it on a constant basis. The optimal way is to have flower and concentrates at the same time, so you can have a more interesting spectrum of cannibinoids.

OP as you put more concentrates through that rig, some will build up on the sides. It's worth dabbing if you're out, tastes fine and does the job nicely.

To me taking a nice dab tastes about a thousand times better than smoked flower

I do enjoy both though

Is the buildup because I am not getting the nail hot enough? I don't want to waste the oil. Shit is pretty expensive.

Eh I'm really just talking shit. I've probably done like 5 dabs in my lifetime and every single time they've left me way too high to function

Just watch videos on YouTube of people taking dabs that'll help you figure out the technique

There's always gonna be some reclaim left over even when you do it right

I LOVE wax and oils. But I still also keep top quality bud around too (vaping bud now). I agree with propensity. I consume a lot of dabs and have used a lot different setups.

OP, I absolutely hate those style of glass nails. And cheap titanium tastes bad, like burnt metal. So OP, I wouldn't enjoy my wax out of that setup either (assuming the titanium is low grade). I have spent more than my share of money to find the right setup.

Currently, my favorite rig is the Nectar Collector. It's a dab straw, but a rig will do just fine if you don't want to spend a lot. I think I would get a quartz banger nail and a carb cap. For me, lower temp dabs are key to getting the best flavor, but the carb cap ensure I get a nice thick milky hit every time.

OP, there is an art and science to vaporizing bud and dabs. I don't smoke anything anymore. I vaporize everything that I inhale, buds and concentrates.

That doesnt look like reclaim, but actual wax that got down there.
Be sure to just dab around the circle in the domeless nail, and some people like to torch it hard and dip it in water when they first get the nails because of vapors off the metal or whatever.

Shit... I guess I'm not heating the nail hot enough. I put it right on the top of the nail. I seasoned the titanium nail but not the glass nail. This is a cheap rig. I bought it for $35.

Get it red hot, wait a couple seconds and dab. A girl I used to hang wiht is all about the low temp dabs.

im gonna ignore all the other posts because they dont seem to helpful
first heat it the nail off the bong and till its all red hot and drop it in cold water for about 7 or 8 times,to get that finish off the nail(rainbow color,this is called seasoning your nail),then season the inside with reclaim or just dab it till its seasoned

also u dont need to wait too long for a dab just get it red then dab it its to harsh wait an extra 2-3 seconds

I would recommend looking into reclaim extractions. I usually save it up, suspended in isopropyl alcohol, and then reduce it to a dark brown goo. It doesn't look too appetizing, but makes for some great edibles.

Try everclear.  I heard isopropyl has some gnarly shit in it if you're going for edibles.  Good luck with that man.

Propane on a TI nail should be fine...it burns a bit hotter than butane.
And propane torches are so cheap and super reliable compared to those cheap chinese smokeshop butane torches.

yeah dude, my friend has his tank hooked to a hose then hooked to the torch tip.....and the tank is sorta attatched to the coffee table so it makes it super easy to torch for anyone and you dont have a bigass bottle to hold onto (not that it really matters kinda just a novelty) but its a cool setup IMO

Hey how are you doing? I will have no use for the torch I blew $60 on after all my oil is gone... lol. I have a little over a gram left now, started off with 3 grams. I have very limited experience with hash oil but I think my oil is pretty shitty actually... After smoking it for a couple weeks now I've noticed that the high literally only lasts less than an hour & it feels like a body high only. Also after dabbing it leaves a small pool of blackish colored liquidy stuff on my glass nail. The oil itself is a dark greenish color. I've had what I'd consider good oil before getting this stuff, a little over a year ago now & the two highs don't compare. I think I'm going to just stick with flowers.

I know the feeling dude. But don't write off wax and concentrates just yet. I don't live in a medical state, so getting good wax reliably is sometimes hit or miss. Most of the time I can get good wax, but every once in a while I go back to flower because the wax sucks so bad.

Try to find someone that is really into wax. Knows their gear and setup. If you were to come over to my crib, you'd love the wax. I spent a lot more than $60 on trial an error. I guess if money is real right and you don't have a lot of disposable income, flower is a safer bet. But for me, wax is cheaper to smoke in the long run. 1g of wax lasts about as long as 10.5g of flower does.

Post a pic of your wax and I'll tell if you if it looks any good.

Yeah dude it sucks... I should've known not to get it by the $90/3.5 gram pricetag but I took a gamble. I could've gotten 8 grams of KILLER nugs or about 6 grams of good bubble hash instead... :rolleyes: Oh well. I may know of some oil elsewhere but I am not really sure how to judge quality based on looks of it. It's kind of like if it was my first time getting weed but with oil. lol. This other oil is $40 per gram. it has a yellowish color to it, & the shape looked like small little pieces of bleu cheese that you'd see in bleu cheese dressing. I'm going to post a picture of the oil I currently have now.

& damn. 1 gram of wax lasts you as long as 11 gs of flower. I'm guessing your talking about high grade. That would be... approx $40 vs approx $100.

Yeah, I get medical small batch buds from a grower. The bud I get is top notch right now. Usually about $225/oz is what I pay. 3 grams of wax lasts me as long as an oz of buds would. The wax I get is usually nug runs of the same quality bud. I have a gram of good bubble hash for example, and it doesn't hold a candle to my wax. I just love the smells, flavors, and effect of wax. Wax is like candy to me.

Yellow waxy dabs should be good though. I usually love the yellow wax.

When I initially got the 1/8 of oil I also got a half of nugs from the same source. They said they use all the trim for oil. The nugs were some of the nicest I've had all year but the oil was (is) not good. This person either didn't know what they were doing when they were making the oil or simply trying to get highest yield/profit as possible while sacrificing quality. My guess is the second.

You can make your own hash oil with acetone and it's every bit as dank as BHO if you do it right

Look up a guy on here by the name of 36fuckin5 he has a link to a good acetone hash oil tek in his sig

I've made it before and it's the shit just as good as BHO in my opinion I have a pic of it in my gallery

It's easy to make too just don't be a dumbass and blow up your house with an extremely explosive solvent

Hey how are you doing? I will have no use for the torch I blew $60 on after all my oil is gone... lol. I have a little over a gram left now, started off with 3 grams. I have very limited experience with hash oil but I think my oil is pretty shitty actually... After smoking it for a couple weeks now I've noticed that the high literally only lasts less than an hour & it feels like a body high only. Also after dabbing it leaves a small pool of blackish colored liquidy stuff on my glass nail. The oil itself is a dark greenish color. I've had what I'd consider good oil before getting this stuff, a little over a year ago now & the two highs don't compare. I think I'm going to just stick with flowers.

with average bud you can get about 4-6 grams of some fiiiirrreee concentrate from an ounce if you can get some really goodbud thats sticky and full of crystals you can get like a 25-30% yield on ur sprays if ur freezing ur tubes before sprays and pack the tubes right

Thank you for all the info man. I truly appreciate that you took your time to share that. Honestly though, until the day I really like doing dabs I probably won't turn an ounce of super dank buds into 4-5 grams of oil. Does the oil/wax in my post look like low quality?

The oil you posted definitely looks sketchy. The yellowish tint is its saving grace, but it looks real oily and blackish too. It could be the person pulled a spectrum of plant contents and got some fats and oils in there.

I know some people will probably disagree with me here, but homemade oil in my area tends to suck. I can always tell when it's homemade oil vs something from the dispensary. Homemade dabs can taste bad, make a sizzle sound on the nail, vape dirty and leave a nasty residue, and not get you very high.

If the person did more than 1 run off their trim and combined them or sold the second run, you are going to get a shit product. I don't make my own dabs either. It was too expensive if you grow. I can get good deals on really killer medical wax for like $30-$45g (depending on how much I buy). For me to make the same amount of dabs, I would have to spend $50-$60g.



Here is my Nectar Collector, and a few flavors of my dabs. The darker dabs in the middle are pretty old, but they are Tangerine Dream. They taste amazing, but the color was a little dark for how good they were. The two on the right are both stable shatters. The one on the left is Razz #1 and it's a nice wax texture.

If that was directed at me I can assure you the oil tasted amazing don't let the dark color deceive you

If you followed the guide and made some I guarantee you would love it

Yeah, it is a dark green color. It definitely gets darker when it is left to sit in the silicone container for a while. Then when I take a piece off to dab, I can see that in the middle it is lighter in color. If I remember correctly... when I dab there is a faint sizzling sound. I do know that it leaves a liquidy, black, pool of residue on my glass nail after taking a dab. Also like I said before-the high is very dissapointing, literally lasts less than 40 minutes or so & it is 100% body high.

Looks like I ended up with the shit product... :frown:

I can see one of the main differences between our oils. The two different kinds of oil on the side (not so much the one in the middle) are almost transparent if I am seeing correctly. Not just a solid colored "blob".

The oil that I was referring to in an earlier post, the yellowish "bleu cheese curds" looking stuff that I know of looks nothing like yours. A term that I think would suit it better would be "wax" instead of oil. But then again, I don't know the difference between wax & oil.

I have seen that pen/pipe looking thing before. I actually remember hitting one of those for one of my first dabs. (Before getting 3.5 grams of the oil I currently have now I had only dabbed approx 2 other times or so.)

Thanks for your replies. I appreciate it. Hope you have a good day.

If your oil sizzles throw it in the oven for 10-15 minutes at 200 degrees Fahrenheit and that should take the sizzle out of it

No I was replying to the OP, just FYI.

I definitely think color is a decent indication though. If I had to pick which dabs to buy one from a photo without smelling, touching, tasting, then I would definitely pick the lightest amber color. Or if it's crumble, the light tan stuff is great.

Anything besides green. OP, green is an indication of chlorophyl. That shit is harsh and makes the product taste nasty, and doesn't get you high. Green == contaminant.

Not sure if it's the photo or what. But those dabs look a little green to me. Acetone has a tendency to pull a fuller spectrum than BHO or CO2 from what I have read. Anyway, I tried some wax that looked just like that a few months ago. It was decent, but not great. Was a lot harsher than what I am use to. (Not saying your wax is the same quality, just making an observation since you posted a photo).

I used to think light oil was the best too

Then I tried this stuff

It only looks green because of the container pictures don't really do it justice at all it was more of a dark translucent amber color

No green was present... freezer-cold acetone doesn't pull a lot of chlorophyll or other unwanted shit

Thank you both for the advice. I'm glad I know all of this stuff now. I was trying to trade this oil (when there was more of it) about a week ago for a half of nugs. I'm glad I didn't though because that person would've probably thought I was trying to F them.

Cool, thanks for the info. I know photos can be off and the containers really fuck with the dab colors. I considered buying all white/clear containers for this reason. Lol. It's the same reason a chef uses a white plate to server food. I like it to look good before I consume it.

Lol yeah the one day I opened it up and was like wtf cause it did look really green but after some investigation I realized that was just the oil reflecting the green color of the container:lol:

But it was weird the first run I did 2 grams and the result is what you see in the picture, hard translucent shatter rocks

The second run I did 4.2 on the same size dish and the oil ended up more light-golden colored and gooey more like full-melt

It all tasted the same though for the most part really carried over a lot of good flavor from the bud it came from, it was unique unlike a lot of the BHO I've had which generally tastes the same from batch to batch IMO

I know what you mean about BHO tasting the same from batch to batch.

From all the people I have been talking to that are into wax and growing, they are saying nug runs are pretty much standard now. Trim and shake for edibles, but the nug runs for wax are getting much better flavors.

The wax I have been getting this year has been supreme compared the couple years. I know one guy producing wax that just spent $50K a closed loop setup. The flavors in the wax I have been getting lately are so much better than in the past. Like the dabs for real taste just like the flower, except in a more concentrated form.

That's how this stuff is it retains the original flavor of the bud it came from

What I like about this oil is that you can assemble a cheap ass ghetto setup for literally like $20 and it still makes amazing oil... you can do it with as little as a gram, or as much as an ounce

Acetone is also somewhat safer/less volatile than butane but it can stil blow your house to smithereens so don't try this at home kids

Not to mention this acetone oil requires no purging after the solvent has evapped but you can still do a water wash on it to purify it even further since acetone forms an azeotrope with water which evaps more quickly than acetone by itself

But basically this oil is pure and ready to be smoked as soon as you scrape it off the dish

That's the only reason I haven't tried making my own. I really don't want to risk blowing shit up. I even have the glass blasting tubes, solvents, and all the equipment except the vacuum purge. Didn't buy the vacuum chamber simply from the fear of the worst case scenario.

Of course I wouldn't empty entire cans of butane in my house, but shit still worries me even doing it outside. If I was currently growing my own bud I'd probably do it. But the risks outweigh the rewards. (Same for growing, which is why I'm not growing anymore until I move to a medical state.)

its all good man ive bought sketchy oil for along time but if u can get it that low and turn around and purge it and dewax/winterize properly you can turn around and sell it for 60$ if its clear amber shatter
like everyone else said the sizzle is a bad thing no matter what
it is heat turns butane into carbon dioxide and water and when water mixes with oil it makes a crackling sound
but for 90 for 3 for some shitty u could get about 2.5-2.7 of some real good stuff if u process it
all this stuff takes a little bit to learn and its a good art if ur good at it because even Colorado and Washington and indeed of chemists for this kind of thing

There's not enough good wax going around right now. So many people are selling shit wax around me thinking it's quality. It's kinda funny really. It reminds me of flower 10+ years ago when medical buds were still hard find in the midwest and homegrown was king. You'd have to go through this arduous process of getting a dude that knew what good bud actually was AND actually capable of finding it large volume. Wax is the same way now.

yes and no
its mostley people are fucking cheap and just spraying and fucking throwing it on the stove till it look alright to sell cause a vac chamber is too expensive for some but butane is non-toxic it wont kill u unless suffocate from it
but it compramises taste and finish
if it was legal people wouldnt have to worry about things like this
