8.5” COLOR ACCENT MUSHROOM PERC RIG

The 8.5" Color Accent Mushroom Perc Rig is a compact glass dab rig built for flavor-focused dabbers who want smooth hits without the bulk. Standing just under nine inches tall with a distinctive mushroom percolator and colorful accent work, this piece delivers solid diffusion in a size that fits easily on any station. Comes ready to use with a 14mm male 90-degree quartz banger included.

Why this rig works

  • Smooth, flavorful hits — The mushroom perc breaks up vapor into fine bubbles, cooling your dab without stripping away terpenes
  • Stable footed base — Won't tip over when you're loading a banger or spinning a cap
  • Ready to dab out of the box — Includes a 14mm male 90-degree banger so you're not hunting for accessories
  • Compact footprint — 8.5 inches (216mm) tall means it travels easier and stores without taking over your shelf
  • Color accent details — Multiple color options available to match your setup or just look good on the coffee table
  • Clear glass body — Watch your vapor path and know exactly when it's time for a cleaning

Best for

This rig hits the sweet spot for dabbers who prioritize flavor over massive clouds. If you're running terpy live rosin or solventless concentrates and want to actually taste what you paid for, the mushroom perc's gentle diffusion keeps things smooth without over-filtering. Also a solid choice for anyone building their first dedicated dab setup — the included banger means you're not piecing together parts from three different orders.

How mushroom percs work

The mushroom perc sits in the base chamber, shaped like — you guessed it — a mushroom cap with holes around the edge. When you pull, vapor gets forced down through the water and then up through those holes, breaking into small bubbles that spread across the dome surface. More bubble surface area means more contact with water, which cools your hit.

What makes mushroom percs popular for concentrates is the balance. They don't chug like a tree perc or stack bubbles to the sky like a honeycomb. Instead, you get moderate resistance and enough diffusion to take the edge off without losing flavor. For dabbers running low-temp sessions where you actually want to taste your terps, that matters.

The 90-degree banger angle keeps your torch work comfortable. You're heating straight down instead of at an awkward side angle, which makes it easier to get even heat distribution across the banger floor. Pair it with a carb cap to maximize vapor production at lower temps.

What's included

  • 8.5" Color Accent Mushroom Perc Rig
  • 14mm male 90-degree quartz banger

Setup and care

Fill the base with water until the mushroom perc is submerged by about half an inch. Pull through the mouthpiece without firing anything — you should get smooth bubbling without splash-back hitting your lips. Too much water and you'll get wet hits; too little and the perc can't do its job.

For cleaning, let everything cool completely, then dump the water. Isopropyl alcohol (90%+ works best) and coarse salt will handle buildup. Pour some in, cover the openings, shake it around, and rinse thoroughly. How often depends on use — daily dabbers might clean weekly, while occasional users can go longer. Clear glass shows residue fast, which is actually helpful. You'll know when it's time.

Keep your banger clean too. Q-tip it after every dab while it's still warm, and you'll get way more sessions before chazzing sets in. Store the whole setup on a dab mat to protect your surfaces and catch any drips.

Compatibility notes

The included 90-degree banger works perfectly, but if you want to upgrade to a different style — flat-top, beveled edge, terp slurper — just match the 14mm female fitting and 90-degree angle. Most carb caps will work depending on your banger choice. Directional caps pair well with flat-tops, while spinner caps need a terp slurper or ball setup.

This rig is sized for concentrates specifically. You could technically use it with a flower bowl adapter, but the chamber size and perc style are optimized for dab vapor, not combustion smoke.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between a mushroom perc and other perc types?

Mushroom percs offer moderate diffusion with relatively low drag. Compared to tree percs or honeycomb discs, they're simpler (fewer parts to break) and easier to clean. The tradeoff is less aggressive filtration, but for concentrates, that's often a feature, not a bug. You keep more flavor.

Does this rig work with any 14mm banger?

It works with any 14mm female banger at a 90-degree angle. If you buy a 45-degree banger by mistake, it'll point straight out sideways instead of up, which makes torching awkward and looks goofy. Stick with 90-degree pieces.

Can I use this for flower instead of concentrates?

Technically yes, with a 14mm male flower bowl. But the chamber is sized for dabbing — you'll get harsher hits from flower than you would with a larger water pipe designed for combustion. We'd recommend keeping this one dedicated to dabbing and grabbing a separate piece for flower.

How much water should I use?

Fill until the mushroom perc is submerged by roughly half an inch. Do a dry pull to test — if water splashes up toward your mouth, pour some out. If you're not getting good bubble action, add a bit more. You'll dial it in after a few sessions.

Is this rig durable enough for daily use?

It's borosilicate glass, which handles heat cycling better than soft glass and resists minor thermal shock. That said, it's still glass. Use it on stable surfaces, store it safely, and don't bump it around. Daily use is fine as long as you're not careless with it. If you need something truly indestructible, check out silicone rigs instead.

What carb cap works best with this setup?

The included banger is a standard flat-top style, so directional carb caps or bubble caps both work well. If you upgrade to a terp slurper or auto-spinner banger later, you'll want a cap designed for those specific styles. For most dabbers starting out, a basic bubble cap handles everything you need.

How do I clean the mushroom perc without breaking it?

Isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt work for routine cleaning. Pour in, cover the openings with your hands or plastic wrap, and shake gently. For stubborn buildup, let it soak for an hour before shaking. Avoid using anything metal inside the rig — you'll scratch or crack the glass. According to Leafly's cleaning guide, regular maintenance extends the life of any glass piece and keeps your hits tasting fresh.
