How to clean your bong and pipe

Learn if you need to clean your bongs and pipes, when you should clean, and the steps to do so!

Do I need to clean my bongs and pipes?

After a certain amount of time spent smoking out of the same glass piece, tar will begin to accumulate, which will make hits more intense, may cause a coughing fit, and may degrade the flavor of the smoke.

There is nothing quite like taking a take out of a clean bong, pipe, or bubbler for the first time after cleaning it. Not only will you be able to taste the flavor of the smoke and the strain, but the hits won’t be as harsh.

You can always scrape a glass pipe for resin and take hits of resin—we’ve all done it—but if you want a better flavor, clean your piece and load a fresh bowl with flower. Resin hits are easier to take. Cleaning a glass pipe or bong is not only simple but also inexpensive.

When should I clean my bong?

When it’s dark brown and sticky with tar, to give the answer in a nutshell. If you are unable to see clearly through the window, it is time to clean it. When it comes to bongs, you should give it a good cleaning if the water within is difficult to see.

The frequency with which you will need to clean a component is directly proportional to the amount of use you get out of it. There are many who would clean their glass pipe or bong on a daily basis if they use it frequently or if it is a costly piece.

If you just use it sometimes, you should probably be alright using it once a week. If you just smoke out of a piece every once in a while, you probably can let it go for a longer period of time. If it has been several months since you last cleaned a piece, it is high time that you did so.

It is recommended that the water be replaced in bubblers and bongs at least once every day, if not each time it is used, in order to prevent the buildup of harmful bacteria. If water is allowed to pool in a piece for an extended period of time, it will get contaminated with tar and debris.

How to clean your bong

There are two options to clean your cannabis bong or pipe. The first one is to purchase a natural and effective bong cleaning agent. The second home-method option needs the following:

  • Isopropyl alcohol
  • Rock salt

Salt is not required, although adding it will make it easier to remove lumps of resin.

Here’s the method:

To clean a piece: 

  1. Whether it be a bong or a bubbler, empty the water chamber.
  2. Alcohol and coarse salt should be poured into the piece.
  3. Cover up the holes, then give it a good shaking for a minute or two.
  4. Pour everything out.
  5. Rinse with hot water to ensure that there are no traces of alcohol or salt remaining.
  6. Let the piece dry completely, you should not be able to smell any alcohol once dried.
Allow the item to soak in alcohol for a few hours or overnight to get tar that is more resistant. Buying a pipe brush and using it to clean the pipe once the alcohol has been poured out is another option.
 
If a piece is of a manageable size, you can immerse the entire thing in a container containing alcohol and salt.
 
When you are cleaning the glass, you need to be very careful not to shatter any of the pieces. When cleaning a glass object, you should violently shake it, and this should typically take place near a porcelain or metal sink, which is great terrain for shattering. You may prevent the piece from breaking on a countertop by placing it on top of an old towel.
