How Does a One Hitter Work?
A glass one hitter pipe, also known as a “Glass Onie,” is a deceptively simple yet efficient smoking device. With their small size, these bats allow smokers to take heavier hits without carrying around a bulky hand pipe.
Manufacturers design taster pipes similarly to cigarettes for peak efficiency, meaning that you can get anywhere from four to five hits out of only a single packed bat taster.
By limiting the amount of space smoke has, a bat taster ensures that more of that sweet smoke gets into your lungs while also maintaining its small, maneuverable size and shape.
How to Clean Out a One Hitter
Unfortunately, owning any smoking device requires varying effort and maintenance, and bat pipes are no exception.
With their small size, one hitter pipes may require more maintenance than other pieces of smoking paraphernalia, as they can only hold so much herb before you need to clean them, and resin can clog them up quickly.
Thankfully, cleaning out a bat taster is simple! With their small size and limited capacity, you can clean your glass pipe easier than any of your more sizable smoking accessories.
Why Do I Need to Clean My One Hitter?
Cleaning your one hitter pipe means so much more than simply ashing it - any device you use to smoke herbs needs a thorough cleaning regularly for your health and an improved smoking experience.
Herb, when smoked, produces a thick and sticky resin that can clog your pipe and make smoking more challenging, along with reducing the amount of herb you can put in your bowl.
Resin can also have dangerous side effects, such as headaches or throat and lung irritation. These side effects are because resin contains ash and tar, which are unhealthy to inhale.
Now that you know why cleaning your pipe is so vital, let’s look at how it’s done. It’s easier than you’d think!

How to Pack a One Hitter
Now comes the most essential part - packing your pipe! Packing your one hitter full of herbs is vital to the smoking process, and a one hitter pipe is slightly different from other pipes.
If you want an optimal smoking experience, you will want to pack your one hitter in a specific way!
Grind Your Herb
Similarly to other smoking devices, the first step is grinding your herb.
There is a key to grinding herb for a one hitter; you don’t want to grind it too fine, or you will inhale ash with each hit.
On the other hand, grinding too large can restrict airflow, preventing hits from happening at all.
Dip & Twist
Place your herb in a basin or tray. Hold your one hitter vertically, with the bowl facing your herb, and dip your pipe into the basin.
Twist your pipe two or three times and you have successfully packed your pipe! You may want to ensure a packed surface with your finger, but after that, you are ready to take a hit
How to Hit a One Hitter
The best part of these glass bats is how easy they are to smoke. Once you have packed your herb into your one hitter, smoking is one of the easiest things you can do.
Experienced smokers may choose to light up their taster pipe like a cigarette, and this will function perfectly! Not only are they shaped like a cigarette, but these tobacco bats function similarly to one, too.
However, a beginner who is just getting started in the world of smoking may want to do some experimentation so that they can find what works best for them.
Herb will light differently depending on how damp or dry it is, and with the small size of a roach hitter, you might want to tap its bowl in and out of your flame.
This tapping method helps find your ideal angle and determines what type of burn works best for your one hitter.
While making this tapping motion, inhale the smoke as with any other pipe. Congratulations! You’ve now taken a hit off of your glass bat. Continue until you’ve smoked all of the contents in this pipe.
Ashing
Once you’ve smoked everything out of your glass pipe, you have to ash it - leaving the ash in your smoking accessories can be unhealthy.
Some higher-end taster pipes may have an automatic clean function that ejects ashes and debris from your pipe’s bowl when you push a button on the pipe's back, but most require manual cleaning.
Ashing a one hitter pipe is simple; once again, these pipes are virtually identical to their cigarette relatives.
Simply shake your taster pipe or tap it against a solid surface to dislodge any ash and your pipe is ready to load up once more - at least until you need to clean it again!
For more effortless and thorough ashing, you may elect to invest in a poker, whether a designated poker device or a toothpick, to scrape out stubborn splotches of resin or stuck clumps of ash.
