Crumble

A dry, crumbly cannabis concentrate with a honeycomb texture produced through low-heat vacuum purging during processing.

Crumble is a dry, brittle cannabis concentrate with a honeycomb or cookie-like texture that easily breaks apart. It is one of the driest concentrate consistencies, produced by purging at low temperatures for extended periods. Crumble is valued for its ease of handling and versatility in consumption.

How Crumble Is Made

Crumble is created through solvent extraction followed by a unique purging process. The extract is whipped and then vacuum-purged at low temperatures for an extended period, sometimes 24 to 72 hours. This prolonged, gentle purge removes moisture and solvents while creating the characteristic crumbly, airy texture. The low-heat process helps preserve some terpenes, though crumble typically has a more muted aroma than wetter concentrates like live resin or sauce.

Using Crumble

Crumble is one of the easiest concentrates to handle because it does not stick to tools or fingers like wax or sauce. It can be broken into small pieces for dabbing, sprinkled on top of flower in a bowl or joint, or loaded into a concentrate vaporizer. The dry texture makes it particularly well-suited for adding to joints and blunts, as it distributes evenly throughout the cannabis without creating wet spots that burn unevenly. Potency typically ranges from 60% to 90% THC.
