How to Properly Store and Handle Shatter

Shatter is a popular cannabis concentrate known for its potency and purity. To ensure that your shatter maintains its quality and effectiveness, it's important to store and handle it properly. In this guide, we'll provide tips on how to store and handle shatter to keep it fresh and potent.

Why Proper Storage is Important

Proper storage of shatter is essential to maintain its potency, flavor, and texture. Exposure to heat, light, air, and moisture can degrade the cannabinoids and terpenes in shatter, leading to a loss of potency and flavor. By storing shatter correctly, you can extend its shelf life and enjoy the best possible experience.

Tips for Storing Shatter

Here are some tips to help you store your shatter properly:

1. Use Airtight Containers

Store your shatter in airtight containers to prevent exposure to air and moisture. Silicone containers or glass jars with airtight lids are ideal for storing shatter. Avoid using plastic containers, as they can interact with the terpenes and affect the flavor.

2. Keep It Cool

Store shatter in a cool, dark place to protect it from heat and light. Excessive heat can cause shatter to melt and degrade, while light can break down the cannabinoids and terpenes. A refrigerator or a cool, dark cupboard is an ideal storage location.

3. Avoid Handling with Bare Hands

When handling shatter, use clean tools such as dabbers or tweezers to avoid contaminating it with oils and dirt from your hands. Handling shatter with bare hands can also cause it to become sticky and difficult to work with.

4. Use Parchment Paper

Wrap your shatter in parchment paper before placing it in an airtight container. This helps to prevent it from sticking to the container and makes it easier to handle. Avoid using wax paper, as it can leave a residue on the shatter.

Handling Shatter

Proper handling of shatter is just as important as proper storage. Here are some tips for handling shatter:

1. Use a Dab Tool

Use a dab tool to handle shatter instead of your fingers. Dab tools are designed to handle concentrates and make it easy to portion out small amounts of shatter for dabbing or vaporizing.

2. Work in a Cool Environment

When handling shatter, work in a cool environment to prevent it from becoming too sticky or melting. If your shatter is difficult to handle, you can briefly place it in the refrigerator to make it more manageable.

3. Keep It Clean

Always use clean tools and surfaces when handling shatter to avoid contamination. Store your dab tools and containers in a clean, dry place to maintain the purity of your shatter.
