What is a Weed Bubbler?

A weed bubbler is a small water pipe, similar in size to the average hand pipe. It has a chamber to fill with water, helping to filter out and cool the smoke before it reaches your mouth.

What Does a Bubbler Do For Weed?

Bubblers use water filtration to filter out contaminants to provide a smoother hit. You’ll also notice that using a bubbler offers a better flavor profile, helping the terpenes in your cannabis of choice shine through.

How Do You Use A Weed Bubbler?

First, you’ll fill the bubbler’s chamber with water or another liquid of your choice. Some choose to use tea or sparkling water instead. Once it’s filled with your choice of liquid, it’s time to add some ground-up flower to the bowl. You’ll want to make sure it’s not packed too tightly or too loosely.

Once your bubbler is set up, light the herb in the bowl and cover the carb hole, inhale, and release, much like you would with a dry pipe. You should be able to feel the effects of it pretty quickly, and if you don’t feel it within a few minutes, you might need to take another hit or two until you do.

Keep in mind that while you should be cleaning your weed bubbler often anyway, it’s especially important to do so if you choose to use any liquids besides water. The last thing you want to deal with when you want a quick hit is mold, stickiness, or gross stains. Clean your bubbler after each use to avoid leftover remnants from previous sessions.

Do Bubblers Get You Higher?

Using a bubbler doesn’t necessarily make you higher than using a bong or a glass pipe on its own. Much of your smoking experience will depend on the type of cannabis that you use as well as the amount you’re using at a time.

However, because contaminants are being filtered out with water when using a bubbler, you may be able to take bigger hits without coughing. So you might feel higher than you would in comparison to using dry smoking methods like joints or dry pipes.

So technically, bubblers can get you higher than using other methods, but the exact results of your high depend on a variety of factors. The best way to find out what works for you is trial and error.

Is A Bubbler Better Than A Bong?

Whether a weed bubbler or a bong is the right option for you depends on what you’re looking for. Bubblers and bongs share some similarities, yet, there are some differences between them to consider when weighing your options.

If you’re new to cannabis or have a lower tolerance, a single bubbler might be a better option than a bong. With a bubbler, you can’t inhale as much smoke at a time as you can with a bong, so you can better manage how high you get and pace yourself a little more.

There is a distinct size difference between bongs and bubblers. While bongs are typically quite large, taking up valuable real estate on your coffee table or desk, bubblers are closer to the size of a typical spoon pipe, making them more portable for those who prefer to smoke on the go. Plus, they’re easier to slip into a closet or a bag in situations that require being discreet.

Bongs have a removable bowl that can be used for clearing smoke, bubblers do not. Instead, bubblers have a carb on the side to clear the smoke, similar to a dry pipe.

Bongs have a much higher water capacity due to their larger size. While bubblers also use water filtration, the water capacity is lower in most bubblers, which can cause harsher hits in comparison. However, double bubblers, or bubblers with two chambers, can provide hits just as smooth as the typical bong due to the increased double filtration.

It’s hard to go wrong no matter which choice you make. Having both a bong and a bubbler in your collection can be useful - you can keep taking hits no matter what the day brings.

Can You Smoke Bud Out of a Bubbler?

Of course! In fact, most bubblers are specifically made for smoking flower. Just grind your bud, place it in the bowl, and you’re ready to go. If you’re not into smoking flower, don’t completely write off bubblers yet. Some bubblers are geared toward dabs, so just do a quick check if you’re looking for a piece that offers that option.

What Are Weed Bubblers Made Of?

The standard glass bubbler is probably the most common one you’ll find around, but you can get bubblers made out of other materials, such as silicone, wood, and metal. There is no particular advantage of one material over another, but the material of the bubbler you choose can influence the taste and the durability of your piece. When in doubt, it doesn’t hurt to ask for a recommendation from a friend or budtender who understands your preferences.
