In the world of dab rigs, carb caps are one of the most recent accessories that have become the latest craze. So what exactly is a carb cap? A carb cap is basically a lid for a dabbing nail that can allow you to adjust the airflow, control the direction of the airflow, and slow down the loss of heat.
A glass carb cap will help you get the most out of your oil rig and concentrate. Watch your dab turn milky white as soon as you drop the dab cap on the banger. It's no wonder that a good dab cap has become the most essential accessory for dabbers. This is for all those wasted dabs that just melted away and never really smoked up. We want that tube to turn milky white, and that is what a directional carb cap can do for you.
Benefits of Using a Carb Cap
The carb cap keeps the temperature lower, and with dab concentrates, this will lower the temperature at which they are vaporizing. This usually results in a smoother result and also preserves all of the quality of the weed rather than losing it at high temperatures.
The carb cap is named this as it does a similar job to a carburetor in a car. It controls air and therefore the pressure and temperature.
- It allows you to direct the airflow to exactly where you want it.
- It helps retain heat by reducing the airflow that cools it down.
- It also allows you to take a lower temp dab that is more flavorful.
A lot of people with a dab rig couldn’t imagine not using a carb cap. As essential accessories go, the carb cap is up there.
Though they are not the most complex or exciting accessories, they come in a number of designs and materials. In order to absorb all that heat and cover the top of the nail banger, they need to be made out of something heat-resistant. Titanium and glass are popular and affordable materials.
The Science: How Do Carb Caps Work?
A carb cap lets you use low temperatures to dab and retain the heat within the nail, this keeps the target temperature more stable.
Lower, stable temperatures are crucial for a few reasons. Not least because it makes the dab vaporize more steadily and efficiently. A carb cap drops the air pressure, just like a carburetor.
This then drops the boiling point for the oil that your dab rig is using. It needs less heat to create the smooth vapor that you’re looking for from each dab. Simple, but incredibly effective.
The nail of a dab rig can heat to up to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit or about 538 Celsius. This makes the taste of the dab suffer and can burn it, reducing the potency. So you can see why so many people invest in one of these small and effective accessories.
How to Use Your Carb Cap
These are possibly the easiest of all dab accessories to use. First, follow the usual steps and apply the dab to the surface of the nail. Straight away, cover the nail or the banger with the cap. This means you can lower and control the heat, as discussed.
Some people opt for dab rigs with a functional carb cap, so you may just need to twist the cap around the nail to spread the oils around. The impressive and thick vapor will build up, and when you want get rid of this, you just have to take the carb off.
Carb Cap Styles
Carb caps basically all do the same thing. They lower the temperature by trapping heat inside, but that doesn’t mean they are all identical. There are a few types of carb cap to consider.
Standard Carb Cap
A standard cap usually has a round end and this is the cap to hold while you are dabbing. This can then be put back over the top of the nail to keep the thick vapor inside.
Bubble Carb Caps
A bubble cap is another popular type. They look like bubbles, as you may have guessed. They’ve got a long hollow stem and this extends from top and bottom of the cap. They work best with a flat-top cap.
They’ve got a rounded design and this gives a complete seal with a flat top, so the dab itself will vaporize quickly. You can easily rotate it to inhale and even move the dab concentrate around inside the banger to get a super-efficient dabbing experience.
Directional Carb Caps
A directional flow cap has a carb hole and a long thin stem that comes from the bottom of the cap. It still manages to create a good quality seal, but when rotated, the airflow does the job of “chasing” your dab concentrate for you. This means fast and efficient vaporizing.
All three of these types of cap are likely to be made out of glass or titanium, and some are also made out of quartz material. For such an affordable and easy-to-use product, it is worth getting your hands on a carb cap to enhance your dab rig setup and improve temperature and efficiency.
