Why do my dabs keep burning?

low-temperature dabs. While using a nail that's not hot enough will waste concentrates by causing them to puddle and pool on its surface, a nail that's too hot will cause the concentrates to burn, resulting in degradation. As well as destroying its flavor, overheating a concentrate will destroy the terpenes.

Cannabis concentrates like oil, wax, shatter and crumble are extracted from the trichomes, or crystals, found on the cannabis flowers or buds. Aside from the rosin technique, in which oils are squeezed out of cannabis using nothing more than pressure, the extraction process requires the use of solvents like butane or carbon dioxide to produce potent oils with high levels of THC. Dabbing requires heating a nail, and touching — or dabbing — the concentrate onto it, rather than placing it directly under a flame as one would with dry herbs. When concentrates make contact with the hot surface, they vaporize. In this article we’ll look at the differences between high and low temperature dabs, and what is the best dab temp for flavorsome, potent hits.

High vs. low-temperature dabs

While using a nail that’s not hot enough will waste concentrates by causing them to puddle and pool on its surface, a nail that’s too hot will cause the concentrates to burn, resulting in degradation. As well as destroying its flavor, overheating a concentrate will destroy the terpenes. THCA is a natural part of the cannabis plant that, upon the application of heat, changes into THC, a component responsible for getting you high. This process occurs when doing a dab. It’s important to know, however, that if the nail is too hot when dabbing, the concentrate’s THCA can degrade into cannabinol (CBN) and wind up as reclaim. Although CBN has some psychoactive properties, it’s only 10% the strength of THC. Researchers believe CBN causes grogginess as well as dizziness and disorientation in users. Unfortunately, the most common mistake made by dabbers is to overheat the nail by waiting for it to glow red before hitting it. A blood-red glow indicates a dab temperature of 1075°F, while a faint-red glow indicates 930°F. High-temperature dabbing occurs at any temperature higher than 800°F and is just as wasteful as dabbing at too low a temperature. Aside from ruining the taste of the concentrate, which starts happening when nails are heated above 720°F, excessive heat will waste concentrates by causing it to quite literally burn up.

Benefits of low-temperature dabs

Low-temperature dabs optimally occur between 500 and 650°F, and you can find the best eNail temp for you with some trial and error. Dabbing at a temperature any lower than that can result in the nail not being hot enough to vaporize the concentrate, causing it to go to waste by pooling up on the nail, bubbling and dissipating. Dabbing at low-temperatures is beneficial for a variety of reasons. Aside from enhancing the flavor of the concentrate by not burning away the terpenes, low-temperature dabbing preserves every part of the oil — including the THC, meaning each hit will be powerful and savory. Use a carb cap when experimenting with low-temperature dabs to produce twice as much vapor and get the most out of every hit.

The medium temperature for dabbing is around 700°F.

What is the best dab temp?

The best temperature for dabbing is anywhere between 500 and 650°F. This is the temperature for an ideal low-temp dab which preserves terpenes and fully vaporizes your concentrate, leaving behind minimal mess and the best flavors. Temperatures lower than 500 degrees will waste concentrates by not fully vaporizing them, and dabs over 720 degrees will also waste concentrates by burning them. A medium temp dab occurs at 700 degrees, but this temperature is still hot enough to boil away some of the terpenes that make your concentrates taste good and feel more potent. That said, if you’re trying to get the best dab temps, stay between 500 and 650°F and never hit it higher than 700°F.

In order to understand how to achieve the perfect dab temp, it’s important to be aware of the terpenes in your extract. Terpenes are the aromatic chemical compounds found in the resinous glands, trichomes, of cannabis flower buds. These crystals produce precursor compounds such as THCA and CBDA to major cannabinoids such as THC or CBD, respectively. THC and CBD have relatively high boiling points when compared to most terpenes found in cannabis. That means that in order to activate some cannabinoids, you may lose out on aromatic terpenes in the dabbing process. Here are the boiling points of the most commonly found terpenes in cannabis:

Beta-myrcene: 334ºF

Beta-caryophyllene: 320ºF

Humulene: 388ºF

Limonene: 349ºF

Alpha-pinene: 311ºF

Terpinolene: 365ºF

Linalool: 388ºF

Researchers have uncovered over 200 terpenes in the cannabis plant, each with their own aroma, effect, and boiling point. When manufacturers extract cannabinoids and terpenes from raw cannabis material to produce concentrates such as shatter and wax, terpenes can be destroyed during the process due to the high heat and pressure techniques used.

How to achieve the best dab temp

Dabbing concentrates provides you with a potent headrush and flavorful aroma, but there are certain ways to optimize your dabbing experience. One of the most crucial steps in taking a dab is knowing the best dab temp and how long to heat your nail before applying your concentrate. More often than not, first-time dabbers will wonder how long to heat a nail or banger, and how long to let it cool down.

1. Consider the components in your setup

The dab rig, nail, and heating element all affect the speed at which your nail heats up and cools down, so it’s important to take them into account when trying to find the perfect temperature. Blowtorches come in all shapes and sizes. Traditionally used for home repairs or culinary purposes, blow torches have helped dabbers get their nails hot enough to dab. You can choose from a small and compact one to a sleek and stylish one to a desktop torch built to last. Each torch allows you to heat your dab nail manually, but some are faster at it than others. The following factors can also affect how long you have to heat your nail:

What the nail is made of (quartz, ceramic, titanium)

Quality of the nail

Size of nail

The thickness of the nail

Consistency of concentrate

Be sure to consider the above factors when choosing how long to heat your nail.

2. Know your heat-up and cool-down times

How long you need to heat a nail before taking a dab depends on a variety of factors (like the ones mentioned above) including your preferred dabbing temperature. High-temperature dabs start at 750ºF. You can tell a nail is too hot if it’s glowing red. Low-temperature dabs happen between 500 and 650ºF. Each type of temperature comes with its own pros and cons.

3. Use an eNail for complete temperature control

Using an electronic nail takes all the guesswork out of dabbing. Simply plug the eNail into the wall, set the desired temperature, and wait a few seconds for it to reach the predetermined temperature. The eNail’s temperature will remain constant until it is unplugged or switched off, creating a more relaxed dabbing experience for whoever wants to dab without the tedious use of a torch. With an eNail, users can experiment with a range of temperatures to see what works best with different concentrates, while discovering their own personal preferences.

Take a look at our selection of eNails here.

How to gauge the temperature of your nail

Temperature control is crucial to taking the perfect dab. Below are a few helpful ways to gauge your temperature, whether you want high, mid, or low-temperature dabs.

Temperature gun

An infrared temperature gun – also known as a dab temperature reader – allows you to improve the accuracy of your temperature readings. A temperature gun also lets you test the heat of a surface from a safe distance without the risk of getting burned. A simple pull of the trigger produces a reading on the digital display. Thermometer guns vary in price, size, speed, accuracy, and temperature range.

Wrist check

Over time, you’ll develop a better handle of your dab rig, heating and cooling lengths, and overall flow. Experienced dabbers can use their wrist to check for the ideal temperature range. After heating a nail for about 20 seconds, you can get your dabber and carb cap ready while the nail cools. Place your wrist slightly above the nail without touching it to test for heat. The nail is a dab-able temperature when a heat sting is no longer present when placing your wrist over the nail.

Timer

An analog or digital timer can be useful if you want to estimate the rate of heat loss in your nail or banger. A small sand timer, watch, smartphone, or kitchen timer can allow you to follow timing recommendations. For low-temperature dabs, torch your nail between 15 to 40 seconds and allow it to cool for 30 to 40 seconds. A timer gives you an exact representation of the elapsed time so you can zero in on the best dabbing method for you.

Terpometer

The Terpometer is an innovative electronic device used to show the temperature of a nail or banger in real-time. An LCD display shows temperature readings. When the screen shines green, you’re ready to drop a dab in your nail. A Terpometer is applied directly to the nail and shows the degrees fall quickly until they’ve reached the ideal low-temperature in the 500º-600ºF range.

eNail

The safest and most effective way to consume dabs is with an electronic nail (eNail). An eNail provides users with precise control over the nail’s temperature by use of a heating coil and digital control box. The coil connects the eNail to the digital controller that powers the unit and sets the temperature. While a more hefty investment, eNails provide fast heating and consistent temperatures for flavorful hits without the fuss. The eNail’s digital display can give users an exact temperature reading.
