Vaporization or using vape pens is a great way to consume cannabis concentrate like shatter. It improves the user’s smoking experience.
Shatter
The main reason why many users like using shatter are because it contains up to 90 percent cannabinoid content. Unlike other concentrates, using this is better as “less is more.”
Shatter is a type of dabs. Dabs are marijuana concentrates that are produced by extracting cannabinoids such as THC and CBD.
The concentrate goes through a process of extraction with the use of butane or CO2. The cannabis plant is soaked in butane. It is then heated to get rid of the remaining butane.
The resulting product is called butane hash oil (BHO). Shatter is a very potent BHO because it comes in its purest form.
How to Consume Shatter?
The main reason why you turn shatter into e-liquid is that you’re going to consume it with the use of vape pens. Vape pens are the most portable way to enjoy cannabis concentrate.
There are two types of vaporizers. The desktop and the portable one. However, desktop vaporizers don’t work well with marijuana concentrates like shatter.
Vape pens are the remaining tool to consume it comfortably anywhere. It costs about $30 to $200 depending on the features and quality of the material.
The portable vaporizer can be charged using a USB port. It improves mobility. Another benefit of using it is that it allows you to consume e juice without smoking or going through the process of combustion.
Using it allows you to have a great smoking experience because it allows you to enjoy the flavor of the concentrate. It tastes better without the nicotine.
With these benefits, it lets you enjoy cannabis without worrying about the carcinogens. You also stay away from the tar that comes with nicotine.
Another way to consume shatter is through the use of rigs. Rigs are glass pipes that are similar to the shape of bongs.
The rig has a mouthpiece with a hole and a vertical chamber. You stick a small nail (glass or metal) in the hole.
According to users who dab shatter, it is a better way to control the taste and flavor of the BHO by adjusting the temperature.
