Pearls & Pills

Dabbing is as much about the journey as it is about the destination. Experienced dabbers know its not only about the effect of the THC. Flavour and smoothness are very much part of the deal. Here is where terpenes come in. Terpenes are little molecules of flavour that are present in the original bud that has been processed and concentrated into your extract.

Terpenes by their nature are delicate and evaporate when overheated, which is why your banger has to be at a relatively low temperature to ensure that this flavour is retained. Your banger has to be hot enough to cause the wax to vaporise but never so hot that the terpenes exit the party. Welcome to the world of low temperature dabbing.

Low temperature dabbing is an art, as it involves knowing a thing or two about heat times and wait times. Managing this heat reaction ensures that that you get the maximum flavour out of your concentrate.

Terp pearls, also known as terp balls or dab pearls, are a must have dabbing accessory. They are little balls that spin around your heated banger dispersing the heat and concentrate so you get big flavourful hits. As terp pearls go under the torch just like bangers, they need to be able to withstand intense heat and retain heat through the session. Their job is to ensure that even if your banger goes cool, there is enough heat to help with vaporizing the little puddles and splashes of THC extract within the banger so that you can 'extract' the last molecule of flavour for your enjoyment.

Terp Pearls are made from materials like quartz, zircon, glass or lab grown gemstones. The best functioning pearls are made from zircon. Zircon is a robust semiprecious stone that is used as a conductive and insulating element in industrial blast furnaces. They are highly resistant and conductive of heat. i.e. Tokin’ Tiger Terp Pearls will not crack under normal use and will retain heat way longer.

Terp pearls are also available in a capsule shape called terp pillars or terp pills. Take a look and try out our terp pearls and terp pills. We are sure you will be impressed enough to come back for more.
