A Quick Guide to Cannabis Concentrates

Cannabis concentrates are the high end of the potency spectrum — extracts that strip away plant material and leave behind a dense mass of cannabinoids and terpenes. Where flower might test 25% THC, a concentrate can hit 70–90%+. The format spans a wide texture range: shatter (glass-hard), wax and budder (creamy), sauce (terpene-rich liquid), diamonds (crystalline THCA), and rosin (pressed, solventless).

The biggest dividing line in concentrates is solvent vs. solventless extraction. BHO (butane) and CO₂ extracts use chemical solvents to pull cannabinoids from the plant, then strip the solvent out in post-processing. These are extremely efficient and produce highly stable products. Solventless concentrates — ice water hash, rosin, live rosin — use only cold water, heat, and pressure. Solventless is generally considered the premium tier: cleaner profile, fuller flavor, no risk of solvent residue. Live rosin (rosin pressed from fresh-frozen ice water hash) is widely regarded as the top of the quality pyramid.

Most concentrates are consumed via dabbing — vaporizing a small amount on a hot quartz banger in a dab rig. Modern e-nails and dab pens make this far more approachable than the torch-and-timer setups of a decade ago. For beginners, a single-temp e-nail or a portable dab pen lets you experience concentrates without the equipment investment. Atrium's concentrate menu covers everything from value live resin to award-winning solventless rosin from California's top hash makers.

About Cannabis Concentrates

What are cannabis concentrates?

Cannabis concentrates are highly potent extracts made by removing plant material and leaving behind cannabinoids and terpenes in a concentrated form. They include wax, shatter, live resin, rosin, distillate, and diamonds. Concentrates typically range from 60–99% THC, compared to 15–30% in flower.

What's the difference between BHO and solventless concentrates?

BHO (butane hash oil) and CO₂ extractions use chemical solvents to pull cannabinoids from the plant. These require post-processing to remove solvent residue. Solventless concentrates — like rosin and ice water hash — use only heat, pressure, and cold water. Solventless products are generally considered cleaner and more flavorful, though they are typically more expensive.

What equipment do I need to consume concentrates?

The most common method is dabbing — you need a dab rig, a banger (quartz nail), a torch, and a dab tool. Wax pens and dab pens provide a portable alternative that heats concentrate with a battery-powered coil. Some consumers also add small amounts of concentrate to flower bowls or joints for enhanced potency.

What is live resin?

Live resin is made from fresh-frozen cannabis — plant material that is frozen immediately after harvest rather than dried and cured. This preserves a fuller terpene profile compared to traditional extraction methods. Live resin typically has a more complex, flavorful aroma and effect profile than distillate-based concentrates.

What's the difference between rosin and resin?

Resin (specifically live resin) is solvent-extracted using butane or propane. Rosin is solventless — extracted using only heat and pressure applied to hash, kief, or flower. Live rosin combines both ideas: rosin pressed from fresh-frozen ice water hash, generally considered the top of the solventless quality pyramid.

What's the ideal dab temperature?

Most concentrates dab best between 500°F and 600°F. Lower temperatures (500–550°F) preserve terpenes and flavor; higher temperatures (550–600°F) produce thicker vapor but burn delicate terpenes. A quartz banger with a carb cap and a thermometer (or e-nail) gives you the most consistent results.

How should I store concentrates?

Most concentrates should be stored in airtight non-stick silicone or glass containers in a cool, dark place. Live resin and sauce benefit from refrigeration to preserve terpene profile and texture. Avoid temperature swings — repeatedly warming and cooling concentrates degrades them faster than steady cool storage.

What are THCA diamonds?

THCA diamonds are crystalline structures of tetrahydrocannabinolic acid — the non-psychoactive precursor to THC. When heated (in a dab rig or vape), THCA converts to active THC. Diamonds often test above 95% THCA and are typically sold in "sauce" — a terpene-rich liquid that surrounds the crystals.
