😤 How does a bong work

While some bongs might have unique features, they all work essentially the same way: As you inhale, the smoke from the bowl enters the pipe via the downstem and is filtered and cooled in the water chamber via percolation before exiting the pipe and entering your mouth through the mouthpiece.

🌿 How to pack a bong

Packing a bong is simple. First, use 2 larger pieces of weed to partially cover the hole at the bottom of the bowl and keep your ground weed from falling down into the water chamber. Next, fill the bowl with finely ground weed till it is filled past the brim, then use your thumb to gently compress the weed down. The idea is to firmly pack the bowl so that it will burn properly while being careful not to pack it so tight as to restrict airflow.

🔥 How to use a bong

Fill your bong with water to roughly 2cm above the bottom of the downstem. Add a few ice cubes to the water for cooler, smoother hits. Pack the bowl, place your mouth on the mouthpiece, lightly pressing against it to keep any smoke from escaping. Cover the carb (if your bong has one) and light the bowl. Gently pull air into the bong to fill the chamber with smoke, and remove the lighter once the bowl has "cherried" (or is bright red and stays lit). When you're ready to inhale, uncover the carb, remove the bowl and downstem and enjoy.

💦 Does bong water filter THC?

No, bong water does not filter THC because THC is naturally hydrophobic (not water soluble). However, it filters some tar and other toxins found in cannabis smoke, as well as small pieces of ash or other impurities that can irritate the mouth or respiratory tract if inhaled.

🪥 How to clean a bong

Dismantle your bong, and rinse each piece with hot water before letting it dry completely. Next, fill a bucket with a simple cleaning solution (water, vinegar, and baking soda). Submerge each bong piece inside the solution and scrub with a soft, clean sponge or dishcloth to remove any built-up grime. Rinse every piece with hot water and let dry completely before reassembling your pipe.

💧 How much water to put in a bong

Regardless of the size of a bong, you do not need to fill it to the brim with water. Add just enough water so the bottom of the downstem is completely submerged.

❓ What is a percolator bong?

Percolator bongs use small accessories (known as percolators or just percs) that help diffuse smoke entering the water chamber. Percs can come in a variety of shapes and sizes (including showerheads and honeycombs, for example) and have hundreds of tiny holes to help create more bubbles as you draw air through the pipe. More bubbles mean more percolation, making for cleaner, cooler, and smoother hits. Downstems can also have small slits or holes for extra percolation.

Bongs

There are 171 products.

Bongs and can be made from a variety of materials. We have a top selection including ceramic bongs, glass bongs, acrylic bongs, and silicone bongs. Their primary function is to cool the smoke, allowing for larger hits to be taken. The water also filters out some of the particulates and tars produced in the smoke for a healthier, smoother toke. A bowl holds the smoking mix, and sucking on the mouthpiece draws the smoke down through the water reservoir. A small hole or “choke” is kept covered while drawing the smoke, then is uncovered for inhalation.

Buy Bongs Online At Zamnesia

Bongs have long been one of the most popular smoking tools used to consume cannabis, and for good reason. A quality bong can be a life-long companion, offering clean, well-filtered hits that are less harsh on the throat and mouth. Whether you are shopping for your first bong or your last, below you'll find all the info you need to know about when buying a bong.

What are the benefits of using a bong

✅ Bongs cool smoke, making for smoother hits that are less irritating to the mouth, throat, and respiratory tract.

✅ They offer better filtration than regular cardboard filter tips.

✅ Bongs produce bigger, thicker clouds of smoke.

✅ Bong hits are more flavorful than hits from a joint or regular pipe.

✅ Bongs are super easy to use.

Types of bongs

The Zamnesia Headshop stocks dozens of bongs made from different materials and of different shapes/sizes. If you're shopping for a bong, keep the following in mind:

Glass bongs are arguably the most popular and offer the purest aromas and flavours when smoking.
Silicone bongs are virtually indestructible and fairly priced.
Plastic bongs are the cheapest and still pretty durable.
Ceramic bongs offer pure taste and flavour and usually come in various unique designs.

Besides the material they are made from, bongs can also be further categorized by their shape:

Beaker bongs have wide bottoms that keep them from tipping over and can produce large clouds of smoke.
Bubble bongs have a rounded bottom that, like beaker bongs, can hold more water and produce larger hits than a straight bong.
Straight bongs have a tubular design and are the most accommodating for bong accessories such as percolators (more info below).
Bubblers are small, portable water pipes that combine the convenience of a one-hitter with the water filtration of a traditional bong.
Dab rigs are specially designed to be used with concentrates and are a must-have for anyone wanting to get into dabbing.

What's the difference between bongs and water pipes (hookahs)?

Water pipes (hookahs, narguiles, argilehs, etc) are traditional smoking instruments originating from the Middle East. They are typically used to smoke flavored tobacco called "shisha" and have a very distinct appearance. While they work very similarly, bongs are much more modern and designed to be used to smoke cannabis and its derivatives.

What to consider when buying a bong

When buying a bong, your budget should be one of the first things to consider. Bong prices in our store vary from €9 to €300+, so setting yourself a clear budget from the start can help narrow down the options.

Moreover, you'll also want to consider how you plan to use your bong. If you want something portable you can easily take on the road, a cheap plastic, acrylic, or silicone bong might be the best option. On the other hand, if you only smoke at home and want a quality pipe that maximizes the flavour and aroma of your weed, spending the extra cash on a nice glass bong from EHLE or ROOR might well be worth it. If you plan to smoke concentrates, keep in mind that not all bongs are made to be used for dabbing, and you might be best off investing in a dedicated dab rig or a bong with a dab adapter.

The best bong brands

There are countless bong brands out there, but a few have earned their reputation for making some of the best bongs on the market. These include:

ROOR. Founded in the mid-90s by German glass blower Martin Birzle, ROOR is highly regarded for the quality of all its pipes, from the most elaborate, unique pieces down to the simplest one hitter.
EHLE. Founded in 1989 by Thomas Ehle (who comes from a long line of glass workers), EHLE is another top bong brand from Germany.
Black Leaf. Black Leaf dates back to 1988. It designs all of its glassware in-house and also stocks a full catalogue of vaporizers, dab rigs, smoke accessories, and merchandise.

Keep in mind that these 3 brands are just some of our favourites. The Zamnesia Headshop contains bongs from many other respected bong brands, so make sure to browse it for more variety.
