Have Questions? We Have Answers
After you find the best marijuana or cannabis concentrates in the Mat-Su Valley, you’ll need a way to enjoy them. There are many different ways to smoke cannabis or vaporize concentrates. One of our favorite ways to do either is to get a bong or water pipe. Many connoisseurs and enthusiasts agree that smoking through water is one of the best ways to consume cannabis.
There are multiple benefits to smoking out of a bong:
- Water pipes make smoke smooth by filtering it through water. The water will also help lower the smoke’s temperature, especially if you add ice to your bong.
- The bong’s water catches ash, tar, and other contaminants from the smoke so they don’t go into your mouth or lungs.
- Bongs and other water pipes look great and can make a nice addition to your glass collection.
Things To Consider Before Buying A Bong Or Water Pipe
There are many reasons to buy a water pipe, and your specific needs will help guide you as you select the perfect one. Since there are so many different characteristics a high-quality bong can have, it’s important to decide what matters most to you. For example, would you rather have an intricate piece from a local artist or tried and true glass pipe from a high-end glass company like Nexus? Here are a few of the most important things to consider when you’re shopping for a new water pipe.
Flower Or Concentrate?
The type of water pipe you should choose will depend on the material you want to use in it. If you want to smoke concentrates, you should be looking at dab rigs. If you want to smoke normal cannabis flower (or bowls of flower topped with concentrates), you’re better off with a traditional bong.
Some smokers want the best of both worlds. One of the nice things about some water pipes is that it’s easy to convert them from traditional bongs to dab rigs. If this sounds like something you’re interested in, make sure you’re getting a water pipe with a standard-sized stemless opening or downstem. When you find a bong that’s compatible with a lot of different bowls, bangers, and other accessories, it’s easy to use it for all of your smoking and vaping needs.
Size Matters
Some people go straight for the biggest bongs they can find, but bigger isn’t always better for water pipes. If you want something that’s easy to store and transport, a better water pipe makes more sense. Some people also find that they enjoy smaller bong hits, so it makes sense to start with a smaller bong.
We normally recommend that people stick with a small or medium-sized bong whenever they’re getting their first water pipe. As you get used to using and caring for your piece, you’ll know when you’re ready for something a little bit bigger. Once you start chasing the biggest bong rips you can find, it’s time to upgrade to a larger size.
Glass Can Break
Most people who have been smoking for a while have lost a glass piece or two somewhere along the way. It’s always sad when that happens, so here are a few things you can keep in mind to reduce your chances of breaking a water pipe:
- Choose your material. While some pipes are made out of more durable materials, most of the best bongs come in glass. Even so, some are more durable than others. Choose a durable glass bong if this is a big concern for you. If you are more apt to be smoking in your garage, or taking it with you camping, you might want to seek out a silicone bong.
- Store your bong with care. Don’t leave your bong on the coffee table, floor, or anywhere else where it could easily get knocked over. If you want to keep your bong on display so you can show it off, find a place where it will be out of harm’s way. Otherwise, it may be useful to get a case for your bong.
- You can save a lot of downstems and bowls by disassembling the bong before you put it away. If you’re putting your glass water pipe in a case, separate all of the pieces first so they can be stored separately to prevent them from getting jostled against each other.
- Clean your bong carefully, and do it often. Using a product such as Formula 420 or even a solution of isopropyl alcohol that is 70% or higher with some salt will cut the scum.
Types Of Bongs
Some bongs are produced in factories so they can be very consistent. Aside from that, though, most bongs are completely unique. There are so many options, some people say the hardest part of buying a new bong is deciding which type to get. Before you come to peruse our selection of glass water pipes, it may be helpful to narrow down your search by learning about the following categories.
Beaker Bongs
Beaker bongs look a little bit like something you’d find in a chemistry lab. These are often regarded as being long-lasting water pipes because they sit on a wide base and have a low center of gravity. In other words, they aren’t very likely to tip over. This wide base also allows the beaker bong to hold plenty of water and smoke without needing to be very tall.
Bubble Base Bongs And Bubblers
Straight Tubes
This is perhaps the most classic type of water pipe. As the name suggests, these bongs are generally shaped like a straight tube of glass. Some people really like the looks of straight tube bongs, and that isn’t the only benefit. Since the shape of this pipe is so uniform, it’s relatively easy to get a controlled hit.
Dab Rigs
The difference between a dab rig and a bong isn’t very significant. A dab rig will be shaped just like a bong, but the difference is that there’s a banger or dab nail instead of a bowl for dry herb. The banger may be made out of glass, titanium, ceramic, or quartz. This is where you heat up the cannabis concentrate to vaporize it.
