A glass bong is a device that allows you to smoke your favorite herb or tobacco in a filtered and cooled way. Glass bongs are made of high-quality borosilicate glass that is heat-resistant, transparent, and can be shaped and colored in many ways. Glass bongs are popular among stoners and tokers for their ease of use, durability, and variety of styles and features.
But how can you make the most out of your glass bong? Whether you are smoking alone or with friends, there are some fun and creative ways to use your glass bong that will enhance your experience and make it more enjoyable. Here are some ideas to try:
- Use ice cubes or cold water: One of the simplest ways to improve your glass bong hits is to add some ice cubes or cold water to the chamber. This will lower the temperature of the smoke and make it smoother and less harsh on your throat and lungs. Some glass bongs have ice notches or ice catchers that hold the ice cubes in place and prevent them from falling into the water. You can also experiment with different liquids instead of water, such as juice, tea, or soda, to add some flavor to your smoke.
- Add a percolator: A percolator is a device that creates bubbles in the water, increasing the surface area of the smoke and filtering it more effectively. Percolators also cool down the smoke and reduce its drag, making it easier to inhale. There are many types of percolators, such as tree, showerhead, honeycomb, turbine, and more, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Some glass bongs come with built-in percolators, while others have removable downstems that allow you to attach a percolator of your choice.
- Try a recycler: A recycler is a type of glass bong that has two chambers connected by tubes. The smoke travels from the first chamber to the second chamber, where it is filtered again by the water, before returning to the first chamber. This process repeats itself several times, recycling the smoke and making it cleaner and smoother. Recyclers are ideal for users who want a powerful performance and a flavorful hit from their herb or tobacco.
- Use a diffuser: A diffuser is a type of downstem that has slits or holes at the end. The diffuser breaks up the smoke into smaller bubbles, increasing its contact with the water and filtering it more thoroughly. Diffusers also reduce the noise and splashback of the bubbling water, making your smoking session more pleasant and discreet.
- Decorate your glass bong: One of the benefits of glass bongs is that they come in various shapes, colors, and designs. You can choose a glass bong that reflects your personality and style, or you can customize it yourself by adding stickers, decals, paint, or other accessories. You can also use LED lights, glow sticks, or candles to create a cool ambiance for your smoking session.
- Play games with your glass bong: If you are smoking with friends, you can make your glass bong session more fun by playing some games with it. For example, you can play “Bong Pong”, which is similar to beer pong but with a glass bong instead of cups. You can also play “Bong Roulette”, which involves filling the chamber with different liquids or substances and taking turns hitting it without knowing what’s inside. Or you can play “Bong Bingo”, which involves creating a bingo card with different types of hits (such as big hits, small hits, coughing hits, etc.) and marking them off as you go.
These are just some of the fun and creative ways to use a glass bong with friends or alone. Of course, you can always experiment with your own ideas and preferences, as long as you are safe and responsible. Glass bongs are versatile and enjoyable devices that can enhance your smoking experience and make it more memorable.
