Bubblers
What is a Bubbler
A Bubbler is a hand-held water pipe. Bubblers are similar to bongs, as they have a mouthpiece, bowl, stem, and water chamber. Unlike bongs, however, bubbler pipes feature a fixed bowl that cannot be removed. As the name suggests, bubblers may also contain a percolator that aerates your smoke. Bubblers are a great smoking device for those who want the benefits of a full-sized bong, but don’t have the space. They work by using water filtration to produce smooth, cool smoke. Bubblers offer the best of both worlds–they are small and easy to carry like a regular pipe, but they also include water filtration for a smoother smoking experience. Bubbler pipes are great for people who want the convenience and portability of a pipe, but who also want the smoother smoke that comes with using water filtration.
Making of a Bubbler Pipe
Traditional glass blowing techniques are used by Glassblowers to craft unique bubblers for weed. In fact, the process for creating glass pipes and bubblers is very similar. The craftsmen start the process by heating up a tube of glass. They can separate the heated tube in half to create two pipes or use the entire tube for a larger piece. Either way, the next step is the “neck stretch”. Glass blowers use a technique called the “neck stretch” to create the neck of the pipe. This is done by heating up the tube and then slowly stretching, spinning, and extending the glass. This forms the foundation for the traditional pipe shape.
How Much Water Should You Put in a Bubbler?
You can put different amounts of water into your bubbler pipe, depending on the size of the piece. Bigger water chambers will need more water than smaller ones. However, you really don’t need that much water to get the proper amount of filtration. Before packing weed in the bowl, first pour a small amount of water into the water chamber. Give the mouthpiece a good drag with your lungs. Were you able to create good bubbling action? Is there excessive water in it that it splashes out of the water chamber and into either the bowl or mouthpiece? The ultimate objective is to find a balance between the two.
