There are so many great options available these days when it comes to bongs and water pipes. Smoking is a personal experience and should be customized to fit your needs and give you the best experience possible. What you are looking for will depend on your experience level, the outcome you are looking to achieve, and the setting in which you are using your new bong. There are several factors to consider here, including the material it is made from, the size, shape, and design. The water filtration chamber of a bong helps in multiple ways. The water works as a surface area the smoke must travel through and as it passes through the water cools the smoke.
If silicone bongs are just not sturdy enough for you but you don’t want to deal with glass, than acrylic bongs are definitely the solution for you. While they are not shatter proof they are a bit more resilient to accidental drops. You can use water for the filtration process in acrylic bongs as well. We previously mentioned above glass pipes in the journey of how smoke travels through a bong, cooling is done in the water chamber with the help of your percolator and downstem. Whether you prefer softer hits or have sensitive lungs, then buying a bong with an equipped downstem, ice pincher, and percolator is recommended to reap the benefits of maximum cooling.
Whether it’s for flowers, dry herbs, or tobacco- savvy smokers have known about water pipes for millennia! Glass bongs filter and cool dry herbs or tobacco to provide a kinder, gentler smoking experience, often with internal percolators to create an even smoother smoke. Tree percs look as their namesake implies looks like a tree turned upside down. The arms may or may not be open or closed on the caps and may also have slits on the sides of the arm. These features create smaller size bubbles to allow the water to cool and filter the smoke at a higher level.
After that, you have to place your herb or tobacco into the bowl. Make sure your herb or tobacco is ground well for the best combustion flow. Next to that, it’s essential to place a screen in the bowl before you fill it, to prevent small pieces of the herb or tobacco from falling through.
Some complicated designs have multiple chambers with an assortment of percolators. Beyond this, there’s no hard science yet that proves smoking with even the best is any “safer”. But if you want cleaner and smoother tokes when you smoke, unique glass bongs have you covered.
