Types of Cannabis Concentrates
| Type | Consistency | Process | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
Live Resin | Sauce, sugar, badder, or batter | Hydrocarbon extraction from fresh-frozen cannabis | Best terpene preservation. Complex aroma and "entourage effect" flavor profile. |
Live Rosin | Badder, jam, or pressed slab | Solventless — heat and pressure applied to fresh-frozen ice water hash | No solvents, highest purity. Premium tier. Prized by purists. |
Wax / Badder | Creamy, spreadable | Whipped during post-processing to incorporate air | Easy to handle. Great for budder spoons and dab tools. |
Shatter | Glassy, brittle slab | BHO extraction, purged and dried flat | Very stable. Long shelf life. One of the original modern concentrate formats. |
Diamonds (THCA) | Crystalline rocks | Supersaturated BHO solution allowed to crystallize | Extremely high potency (95%+ THCA). Often combined with terpene sauce. |
Hash / Kief | Powder to compressed brick | Dry-sift or ice water (bubble hash) separation of trichomes | Traditional, solventless, full-spectrum. Great for topping flower bowls. |
Concentrates FAQ
What equipment do I need to dab cannabis concentrates?
Basic dabbing requires a dab rig (water pipe with a nail/banger instead of a bowl), a torch to heat the banger, and a dab tool to apply concentrate. Electronic nails (e-nails) and portable dab devices (like the Puffco Peak) are popular alternatives that maintain consistent temperature without a torch.
What temperature should I dab at?
Low-temp dabs (450–550°F) preserve terpenes for better flavor. High-temp (600–700°F) produces bigger clouds but can degrade terpenes. For live rosin and premium live resin, low-temp dabbing is strongly recommended. Use a carb cap to trap vapor at low temperatures.
Is live rosin really worth the higher price?
For terpene-forward consumers: yes. Live rosin is solventless, made from fresh-frozen material, and retains the most complete terpene and cannabinoid profile of any concentrate. For pure potency at value — diamonds or quality shatter may make more sense.
What is the difference between live resin and live rosin?
Both start with fresh-frozen cannabis (vs. dried/cured). Live resin uses hydrocarbon solvents (butane/propane) for extraction. Live rosin is solventless — trichomes are separated in ice water, then pressed under heat and pressure. Rosin is generally pricier due to lower yields and no solvents.
