If you’ve ever wondered what the honeycomb equivalent is in the world of cannabis, then look no further. Cannabis crumble is the name, and this is one that connoisseurs love because it’s very high in THC, and other great additives too. Here, we’ll go over just what exactly this is.
To start, what is it?
This is sometimes called honeycomb or crumbled wax and is a concentrate of cannabis that’s powdery and dry, which makes it very easy to fall apart and well, crumble. This is a concentrate that does have solvents such as butane in it, and it’s very strong. It’s cheap too, and many people like it because it gives a super good high for a very little payoff as well.
The crumble itself isn’t a long history, and really, the extraction for this only got perfected as of late. In 2005 though, in an article done in cannabis culture, it highlighted the budder oil that was made through a man in Canada. It then was combined with butane hash oil, and over time, the crumble product came slowly but surely into existence, and through other kinds of extraction, this was possible.
With the advent of various technology, various manufacturers along with extractors are able to experiment and create the best concentrates possible, including of course, cannabis crumble.
How it’s made
This is pretty much made through butane, but there might be other solvents thrown in there too, which creates different kinds of textures to the crumble as well.
Through solvents, the processor is able to extract the resin directly from this marijuana plant. The resin is then put through a process of purging, where it requires low heat and a much longer time for vacuuming in order to get the solvent directly from the resin, with the result being the crumble that we know of today. The original cannabinoids and terpenes are preserved too, so it smells great too while also being really strong as well.
Wax Vs. Crumble
Wax is a bit different from crumble, and this is pretty much created through different oils, heat, and extraction applied, and the agitation used during manufacturing as well. Crumble is produced with the pre-purge kinds of oils, which actually have a lot more moisture, and it does require a different temperature that’s oftentimes higher to make the consistency that we know. That’s why crumble feels powdery and dry, as opposed to the textures of the other products that aren’t able to break apart as easily.
How to Use
This is used through dabbing, and others may try to use it in a cone or joint and smoke it through a pipe too, whether hand or water. When this is consumed in that fashion though, it’s considered a topper in most cases.
The most popular way to enhance cannabis crumble is to put it over the marijuana flower in order to enhance what is already there. This is quite fun, but remember that it is quite potent, so if you’re not used to this kind of cannabis consumption, do be prudent and take it a bit slow.
With that said, for those who are curious about it, it’s actually quite easy to get. You want to go to the dispensary in order to get the cannabis to crumble, also known as cannabis concentrate, and from here you can ask about the best ways to use it, depending on the type of cannabis user that you are. This can help you in many ways and offer the best experience that you can get from this consumption too.
