Different types of glass bongs

Glass bongs are undoubtedly the most popular bongs on the market. Not only do they look fantastic, with cool, ornamental designs, funky shapes and plenty of artistry, but they also offer a superior smoking experience. There are numerous types of glass bongs, and it’s worth trying as many styles as possible to get a feel for the difference. Some popular ones include:

• Small, Medium and Large Bongs - size does play a considerable difference. All of them have benefits, but generally speaking, the larger the bong, the larger and more intense the hit.

• Beaker Bongs - a wide beaker bong is a perfect smoke filter. More water in the chamber gives you a smoother, cooler hit.

• Premium Bongs - extra-large bongs can accommodate popular accessories like percolators and ice catchers. Smoke a whole bowl in a single massive hit!

• Novelty Bongs - These high-quality devices offer a premium smoking experience with a host of features and top entertainment value, adding plenty of laughs to the party.

Trending glass bongs in 2023

For the best weed-smoking experience, you want to invest in a high-quality borosilicate glass bong. Of course, everyone has their favourites, but overall the most popular offer extra filtration for significant smooth hits. Percolator bongs, straight tube bongs and bongs that are large enough to include accessories tend to top the list. Our favourites include:

• ROOR Straight Shooter Glass Bong with Ice Catcher - an attractive bong with a straight smoke chamber, a glass cone piece and an ice catcher.

• Rainbow Straight Shooter Glass Bong with Triple Filters (39cm) - great for a massive rip. Triple filtration makes this one of the smoothest tokes you will ever experience.

• Crazy Leaf All Glass Bong with Perc - A cool design of a beaker-style glass bong with perc. The flared bowl holds plenty of water for a rich, smooth, tasty toke.

Why choose a glass bong?

They might cost you a little more upfront, but glass bongs are absolutely worth the investment. Good-quality glass bongs stand head and shoulders above their counterparts. Acrylic bongs are cheap but lack the versatility of glass and can impart nasty flavours and residue. Silicone bongs might be slightly better, but adding accessories can still be challenging. Ceramic bongs are reliable and offer good flavour, but they are very easy to break.

Super strong borosilicate glass is ideal. It’s smooth, easy to clean, non-porous for better hygiene and resistant to thermal-shock breakage. This extra thick glass offers the cleanest and most satisfying smoke. Plus, they’re ideal for the conscious recycler. Rest assured, your quality glass bong can be used indefinitely and won’t end up in a landfill after a month.

Top products and accessories for smoking cannabis

There are many ways to consume your cannabis, like vaporisers, quartz bangers, dab rigs and joints; however, purists will always return to their trusty bong. When high temperatures in a bong cause combustion, instantly releasing a flood of terpenes and cannabinoids like THC and CBD, you get a massive hit unlike any other. Nothing offers the smoking satisfaction of a bong for getting thoroughly ripped.

Of course, such large rips can be pretty overwhelming, which is where your bong features and smoking accessories come in. Designed to combat the harsh nature of hot smoke, these valuable components help make the experience more pleasant. Favourites include:

Percolators - the extra filtration from percolators allows you to smoke the entire bowl in a single hit- without a coughing fit. Favourites include a showerhead perc or honeycomb perc.

Ice catchers - an ice catcher is a bong feature that allows the chamber to be filled with ice cubes to cool down the smoke. Cooler smoke minimises throat and lung irritation.

Ash catcher - this device catches ash and resin build-up, ensuring a smoother, more satisfying hit.

Grinders - A purpose-built grinder will work your plant matter into a uniform grind. The consistency ensures an even burn.

For all your weed-smoking parts and accessories, you can rely on My Bong Shop. Source all your scales, rolling papers, blunts, jet lighters, electronic lighters, satchel bags, glass pipes, metal pipes, downstems and bowls in one convenient online location.

Anatomy of a Bong

Bongs can be straightforward devices or contain many additional features. In general, a bong’s central elements include:

The bowl: the mini bowl where you pack your ground weed.

The carb: a small hole at the back of the chamber that you block/unblock to control airflow.

The downstem: the pipe that links the bowl to the chamber.

The tube: the tube with a mouthpiece that fills with smoke after percolating in the water.

The base: stands your bong up safely, preventing tipping or breakage.

How to use a glass bong

Smoking a glass bong is simple. Anyone can master it with a few tries. Follow these simple steps to get yourself started:

1. Prepare your bong by inserting the downstem and bowl. Ensure the bong water is slightly above the downstem.

2. Grind your weed to a uniform consistency.

3. Pack the bowl with a pinch of weed and lightly tamp down.

4. Light up, drawing smoke into the chamber in a smooth, steady motion.

5. Clear the chamber by unblocking the carb and removing the bowl from the downstem.

6. Clean your device using bong cleaner or hot water and detergent.
