Grav - Catador de 12 mm con funda de silicona

Three things: bore, screen, and price. The GRAV 12mm Taster has a 12mm bore for a smaller, more discreet hit and uses a plain restriction at the mouthpiece end. The 16mm Octo-Taster is wider, has a glass screen built into the pipe, and has a faceted octagonal body. Both share the removable silicone skin, the pinched mouthpiece, and the fold-over bowl cap. The 12mm starts at $9.99, the 16mm is $13.99.

Yes. The silicone skin extends past the bowl end of the glass and folds across it. Pack the bowl, fold the silicone over, and the GRAV 12mm Taster goes into a pocket or bag with the flower sealed inside. Peel the cap back when you want it. This is the feature that separates it from a bare chillum, which spills a packed bowl the moment it moves.

Yes, completely and in one piece. The skin slides off the glass body so both can be cleaned separately. That matters because silicone absorbs resin and odour much faster than borosilicate does — cleaning the GRAV 12mm Taster assembled leaves residue trapped between the two materials. Isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt handle the glass; warm soapy water handles the skin.

No. The GRAV 12mm Taster uses a plain restriction rather than a fitted screen. GRAV added a built-in glass screen to the wider 16mm Octo-Taster instead. On the 12mm, the practical fix for pull-through is grind: a medium grind stays in the bowl, and a powder-fine grind travels. The bore is too narrow to seat a drop-in screen usefully.

The GRAV 12mm Taster is 4 inches long — about 103 millimetres — and roughly three-quarters of an inch across with the silicone skin fitted. The 12mm figure in the name is the glass bore, not the outer diameter. It is slimmer than a pen and short enough to disappear into a coin pocket, which is the entire design brief for the format.

No. The GRAV 12mm Taster is a dry flower one-hitter with no ground joint anywhere on the body, so a banger, nail, or dab adapter has nowhere to attach. The silicone skin is also not rated for the temperatures a banger reaches. For concentrates, a dedicated rig with a 14mm joint is the right piece.

Angies Boutique stocks the GRAV 12mm Taster in Blue, Black, Purple, Pink, Teal, and Dark Teal. The colour is in the silicone skin, with clear glass underneath. GRAV currently produce Black, Blue, Dark Teal, Avocado Green, Mustard Yellow, and Scarlet Orange, which makes Purple, Pink, and Teal the last of an earlier run.
