Bubblers & Bubbler Pipe & Bubbler Bong
What Is a Bubbler?
A bubbler is a hand-held water pipe that resembles a bong. It has a mouthpiece, water chamber, stem, and bowl (the bowls of some bubblers are fixed, and they cannot be taken out). Bubblers can also contain percolators that aerate the smoke and make it purer. There is a carb or hole on bubblers that have fixed bowls for clearing out the smoke.
A weed bubbler is a perfect combination of common spoon pipes and regular bongs that you will adore.
Water filtration is the main difference between bubblers and pipes. Both bubblers and spoon pipes are tiny and portable, but the bubbler can use water for filtering the smoke and improving the smoking experience.
How Does a Bubbler Work?
A bubbler resembles a water pipe. This smoking device is comprised of three major parts: a mouthpiece, chamber, and bowl.
Bubblers are very easy to use. Fill the bowl with your preferred herbs, light them up, and inhale through the mouthpiece. Once the smoke appears from the burning herbs, it goes to the chamber. There is usually a small amount of water in the chamber, which cools and filters the smoke.
As soon as the smoke is filtered and cooled by the water in the chamber, it goes to the mouthpiece. Inhale and enjoy mild, smooth, and awesome hits.
Bubblers differ from bongs, and they have numerous advantages. Nowadays, you can find various types of bubblers on the market, including ones that contain showerhead diffusers.
Different Kinds of Bubblers
There are numerous kinds of bubblers offered on the market, and they have slight differences. Below you can read something more about some types of bubbler water pipes.

Silicone Bubbler

This type of bubblers is completely made of silicone, except for the bowl made of glass. Silicone is a material that successfully handles high temperatures, and it is very easy to clean.

You can clean it easily with a solution of soap and hot water.

Hammer Bubbler
As the name suggests, the shape of the hammer bubblers resembles a hammer. The mouthpiece and the chamber bottom will remain flat against the surface where you will keep the piece. The neck of the hammer bubbler is positioned diagonally, and it is attached to the chamber.
Sherlock Bubbler
Sherlock Bubblers look like Sherlock Holmes' pipe. This type of bubblers is very similar to a hammer bubbler, but unlike hammer bubblers, it has the shape of the letter "S." This is a vertical water pipe that has a bent mouthpiece. The Sherlock bubbler is a portable, small, hand-held water pipe that uses percolation for filtering the smoke. It works similarly to both bongs and pipes. The Sherlock bubbler has a built-in bowl, just like pipes. While the bubbler, unlike dry pipes, contains a downstem that goes directly into the water chamber. There are a lot of slits on the downstem used for percolation and for creating bubbles in the water chamber. That is why when using a Sherlock bubbler, you will hear that characteristic bubbling sound. This type of bubblers is similar to a common pipe, because it is small and it will perfectly fit your hand. There is a carb hole at the side, and you can easily cover it with your finger or thumb.
Blunt Bubbler
If you want to enjoy an enhanced smoking experience, then you definitely need to try the blunt bubbler. Blunt bubblers will provide you with smooth, pure, and nice smoke thanks to the filtration of water.

The Differences Between Bubblers and Bongs
Some of the main differences between bubblers and bongs are:
- Size – When comparing bubblers and bongs, the first noticeable difference is their size. Both bubblers and bongs use water to filter the smoke and make it smoother, cleaner, and cooler. However, traditional bongs are bigger than bubblers. Bubblers are hand-held pieces, tinier, more discreet, portable, and easy to use.
- Bowl and Downstem – The bowls of traditional bongs are usually cone-shaped and attached to the downstem. On the other hand, most bubblers do not have a downstem. They have a fixed bowl that is similar to the bowls of spoon pipes.
How to Use a Bubbler?
Step 1: Fill the Water Chamber with Water
The first thing you need to do is fill the water chamber of your bubbler with a small amount of water. Inhale just to check if you have added the right amount of water. There should be enough water for creating bubbles, but they should not splash in the mouthpiece or bowl.
Step 2: Load the Bowl
Once you have filled the water chamber with the right amount of water, it is time to grind some cannabis herbs and load the bowl. The bowl of a bubbler should be loaded just like to bowl of a spoon pipe – it should not be loaded too firmly or closely so that you can get good airflow.
Step 3: Ignite the Herbs
Some bubblers have carb holes. If yours has one, then you should close it with your thumb or finger. Once you begin inhaling from your bubbler pipe, light up a part of the herbs. Continue dragging, and you will notice the smoke going through the bowl, touching the water, and making hundreds of small bubbles. This bubbling process is actually the process of filtering and cooling the smoke.
Step 4: Clean the Chamber
In order to take a hit, you need to take your thumb or finger off the carb hole. Inhale and clear the chamber of your bubbler.
How Much Water to Put in a Bubbler?
The amount of water that you need to put in the water chamber is proportional to the size of the bubbler, i.e., a small amount of water is needed for smaller water chambers, and a larger amount of water is needed for larger chambers. Generally speaking, you do not need large amounts of water to get the smoke properly filtered. The first thing to do is filling the water chamber with a small amount of water. Inhale, and check whether there is enough water for creating bubbles. Make sure that there is not too much water in the water chamber, because in that case, the bubbles will splash in the bowl and mouthpiece. If there is enough water for creating bubbles that do not splash into the bowl or mouthpiece, then that is the ideal amount of water you need.
How to Clean a Bubbler?
One of the main tasks when using a bubbler on a regular basis, is keeping it clean. Bubblers are usually very easy to clean.
You can soak your bubbler in isopropyl alcohol. Leave it overnight for the best results, and then rinse it with clean water.
If there is a lot of residue in your bubbler, try cleaning it with a pipe cleaner. Once you have scrubbed the dirt out of the bubbler, rinse it with clean water.
It is important to let your bubbler dry entirely so that it is ready for your next session. The herbs will stay dry in a completely dried bubbler. Make sure always to use the proper cleaning accessories when cleaning your bubbler.
How Much Is a Bubbler?
Different types of bubblers have different prices. Some of them cost less than $10, while the high-quality ones are sold for more than $200.
The price of a bubbler depends on five crucial characteristics:
- Type of material: If the bubbler is made from a scientific glass, it will be more expensive than bubblers made of low quality and short-lived materials.
- Color: If the bubbler is more colorful, then it will be more expensive.
- Details: Just like colors, the more details a bubbler has, the more expensive it will be.
- Method of manufacturing: Handmade bubblers are more expensive than mass-produced bubblers.
- Brand: Bubblers made by reputable and reliable brands are more expensive than bubblers made by less popular brands.
However, you can easily find a high-quality bubbler made of borosilicate glass for less than $25. Properly functional bubblers with good quality and attractive designs usually cost from $25 to $60.
If the bubbler is made of durable scientific glass, if it has a lot of details, a variety of colors, and a one-of-a-kind design, it is expected to cost more. A handmade bubbler is always a good choice.
