pooldab

Pooldab refers to a specific method of consuming cannabis concentrates, often associated with dabbing. It involves heating a cannabis concentrate on a hot surface, typically a nail or banger, and then inhaling the resulting vapor through a water pipe or dab rig. The "pooldab" aspect specifically relates to the accumulation of melted concentrate in the heated surface before it is inhaled. This pooling can occur if the heat is applied for a short duration or if the concentrate melts more slowly than it vaporizes. Users may intentionally create a pool of concentrate to manage the intensity of the dab or to ensure complete vaporization of the material.

The technique requires specialized equipment, including a dab rig, a heat source (such as a butane torch), and a nail or banger made of materials like quartz, titanium, or ceramic. The concentrate is applied to the heated surface, and as it melts and vaporizes, the user inhales the vapor. The water filtration in a dab rig helps to cool and purify the vapor, making it smoother and less harsh. The size and shape of the pool created can influence the vaporization rate and the overall dabbing experience. Some enthusiasts experiment with different pool sizes to achieve their preferred temperature and flavor profiles. It is important to note that dabbing, including the pooldab technique, involves inhaling concentrated cannabis vapor, which can be significantly more potent than traditional methods of cannabis consumption.
