## Content

The Best Temp Index (BTI) is a platform where concentrate makers publish their approved dabbing temperatures, and you look them up by scanning a QR code on the product label or searching a verified brand directory. Scan, see the maker's number, dab it right. That's the whole idea. This article focuses on how the QR-label part actually works. The 30-second version Instead of guessing what temperature to dab, you get the maker's recommendation delivered at the exact moment you need it: on the packaging, one scan away. No screenshots, no forum digging, no averaging strangers' opinions. (For the full overview of the platform, see what BTI is .) How the QR temperature label works The maker publishes their temps. A brand creates a BTI listing and sets a recommended temperature range for each product or strain. The product gets a QR label. A QR code on the packaging links straight to that product's recommendation on the Best Temp Index. The label itself shows the essentials too: the recommended temp, a color code for that temperature range, and the banger the maker recommends. You scan it. Point any phone camera at the code; no app required. You see the maker's recommended range for that exact concentrate. You dab it right. Check the quartz surface with an IR thermometer and hit it consistently. Why put it on the label? Because the moment you're deciding what temperature to use is the moment you're holding the product. Packaging is the one thing reliably in your hand at dab time. Putting the recommendation there, rather than buried on a website you have to go find, removes every step between "I want to dab this" and "I know exactly how." It also means the guidance is tied to the specific product in your hand, not a generic average. No app, no friction Modern phone cameras read QR codes natively, so scanning a BTI label takes seconds and opens the recommendation in your browser. From there you can also explore the brand, see product details, and save favorites for next time. What if there's no QR code? Not every product carries a label yet, and the directory has you covered. Search the brand and product in the BTI brand directory to find the same maker-approved temperatures online. And if you're a brand that wants labels on your own products, QR label generation is included in BTI's Professional and Enterprise maker plans (see pricing ). Why this matters QR temperature labels turn a guess into a lookup. For dabbers, that means better flavor and consistency with zero effort. For makers, it means customers experience their work the way it was intended, which protects the brand's reputation. It's the same principle as maker-approved temps beating guesswork , delivered at the point of use. This article is for flavor and experience guidance only and is not medical or health advice.
