About the Product
This compact 7.5-inch recycler rig from Green Flower provides exceptionally smooth, cool, and flavorful hits. It uses a showerhead percolator and a constant water-cycling path to prevent splashback, making it a great choice for desktop use.
This single uptake recycler rig is designed to deliver the smoothest and most flavorful experience from your concentrates. By constantly cycling water, it cools vapor and prevents splashback, while the showerhead percolator creates a dense screen of bubbles for maximum diffusion. Its compact size and stable base make it a reliable and eye-catching addition to any setup.
Is This the Right Recycler Rig for You?
- Steady Function: A single uptake arm delivers a clean, predictable recycling action without excessive drag.
- Maximum Diffusion: The showerhead percolator produces fine bubbles for complete cooling and filtration.
- Splash Prevention: The recycler design keeps water from reaching the mouthpiece, ensuring a clean pull every time.
- Universal Compatibility: A 14mm female joint at a 90-degree angle fits the most common quartz bangers.
- Pure Flavor: Made from high-quality borosilicate glass to preserve the true taste of your terpenes.

What Is A Single Uptake Recycler Rig?
A single uptake recycler is a type of dab rig that uses one dedicated tube to pull water and vapor from the main chamber up into a second chamber. Gravity then "recycles" the water back down. This continuous loop cools the vapor multiple times, filters out impurities, and prevents any water from splashing into your mouth.
This design provides a smooth, satisfying chug with lower drag compared to more complex multi-uptake systems. It ensures every hit is fresh, full of flavor, and comfortable to take.
- This rig uses a single arm to pull water and vapor through a constant recycling loop.
- This process cools vapor and dramatically reduces the chance of splashback.
- The design provides smooth function with less drag than complex alternatives.
Product Specifications
Understanding the specs is key to knowing how this rig will perform. We've broken down each feature to show you the direct value and benefit it brings to your sessions.
Why Do The Technical Specifications Matter?
The joint size, angle, and percolator type directly impact performance and compatibility. This rig's 14mm female joint at a 90-degree angle is the industry standard for pairing with flat-top and opaque-bottom bangers, giving you many options for customization.
| Specification | Value (What It Does) | Benefit (Why It Matters) |
|---|---|---|
| Single Uptake Recycler | Creates a continuous water cycle in a simple path. | Delivers extra-cool, smooth hits with zero splashback and minimal drag. |
| Showerhead Percolator | Diffuses vapor through dozens of small slits. | Maximizes filtration and cooling, making every pull remarkably smooth. |
| 14mm Female Joint | Provides a standard connection point for accessories. | Offers wide compatibility with the most popular quartz bangers on the market. |
| 90-Degree Angle | Keeps the banger vertical and away from the rig body. | Ensures even heating, better heat retention, and safe handling. |
| Borosilicate Glass | Offers high thermal resistance and durability. | Preserves the pure flavor of your concentrates and stands up to regular use. |
| Approx. 7.5" Height | Provides a compact, easy-to-handle form factor. | Fits comfortably on your desk without taking up too much space. |
- The single uptake path provides consistent water cycling with low drag.
- A showerhead perc creates dense bubbles for superior vapor cooling.
- The 14mm 90-degree joint fits a wide range of popular bangers.
- Borosilicate glass ensures durability and flavor purity.
What Makes This Recycler Rig Stand Out?
While many rigs look good, this one pairs its eye-catching design with two powerful features: a high-diffusion showerhead percolator and a well-tuned single uptake recycler path. Together, they work to solve the two biggest problems in dabbing: harshness and splashback.
How Does The Showerhead Perc Improve Smoothness?
Imagine pushing smoke through a single large hole versus hundreds of tiny ones. The showerhead percolator works like the latter. As vapor enters the perc, it's forced through dozens of small slits, breaking it down into a flurry of tiny bubbles. This process dramatically increases the vapor's surface area touching the water, resulting in rapid cooling for a noticeably smoother hit.
What Does The Single Uptake Path Do?
The single uptake arm is the engine of the recycler. It creates a vacuum that pulls both water and vapor up and out of the main chamber, separating them from the splash zone. This not only provides a second stage of cooling but also acts as a natural splashguard. The water then returns to the bottom, ready for the next cycle, ensuring a clean and dry hit every time.
- The showerhead perc diffuses vapor into fine bubbles, maximizing cooling.
- The single uptake arm pulls water and vapor away from the mouthpiece to prevent splashback.
- This dual-action system results in a smoother, more flavorful, and comfortable hit.

How Does This Rig Compare To Other Options?
While all these rigs are designed for concentrates, they offer different experiences. The single uptake provides a classic, low-drag chug, while an incycler offers a more dramatic vortex inside the main chamber. Consider what type of function you enjoy most.

| Primary Benefit | Smoothness & No Splash | Vortex Function & Flavor | Massive Diffusion | Classic & Simple |
| Best For | Users wanting cool, low-drag hits. | Enthusiasts who love watching the vortex. | Those who prioritize maximum bubbling action. | Users wanting a simple, no-frills setup. |
- It delivers superior smoothness and splash prevention compared to non-recycling rigs.
- Its single uptake path offers a lower-drag experience than some complex incyclers.
- It combines percolation and recycling for a comprehensive session.
How To Get Started With Your Recycler Rig
Proper setup is essential for achieving the best performance from your recycler. Follow these steps to dial in the water level and enjoy perfect function from the very first use.
How Do I Fill And Use This Recycler Rig?
Finding the sweet spot for your water level is easy. Too little water reduces filtration, while too much can increase drag. Start here and adjust to your personal preference.
6 Steps to the Perfect Session:
- Fill with Water: Pour clean water through the mouthpiece until the showerhead percolator is fully submerged by about a quarter-inch.
- Perform a Test Pull: Without a banger, take a gentle pull from the mouthpiece. Water should bubble and cycle smoothly up the arm without reaching your lips.
- Adjust Water Level: If you get splash, pour a little water out. If the function seems weak, add a little more. Repeat until the cycle is strong and splash-free.
- Heat Your Banger: Attach your 14mm quartz banger and heat it to your desired temperature.
- Load and Cap: Place your concentrate in the hot banger and cover it with a carb cap to control airflow.
- Inhale Smoothly: Take a slow, steady draw from the mouthpiece and watch the rig function. The recycler will cool and smooth the vapor for a perfect hit.
- Fill the rig so water just covers the showerhead perc slits.
- Test the draw to ensure water cycles correctly without splashing.
- Adjust the water level as needed for your preferred pull resistance.
- A slow, steady inhale provides the best recycling function.
How To Clean And Maintain Your Rig
Keeping your recycler rig clean is the best way to ensure it performs well and preserves the flavor of your concentrates. Regular maintenance prevents buildup in the small pathways.
What Is The Best Way To Clean A Recycler Rig?
For best results, rinse your rig with hot water after each session to prevent reclaim from hardening. For a deep clean, use a mix of Isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher) and coarse salt. Plug the openings and shake it hard to dislodge residue from the percolator and recycler arms. Rinse thoroughly with warm water until all alcohol and salt are gone.
- Rinse with hot water after use to minimize daily buildup.
- For deep cleaning, use a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt.
- Shake the mixture inside the rig to scrub the internal pathways.
- Rinse thoroughly with warm water until the rig is completely clear.
