What is a Percolator Bong?
In principle, percolator bongs work in a similar way to diffusers and pre-coolers. A percolator ensures that the smoke in your bong is swirled by special conduction of air currents and thus freed from some pollutants and coarse dirt particles. Through this swirling, the smoke passes the water more often and is thus enriched with fresh oxygen each time. This gives it a freshness and softness that is not known from normal bongs. In addition, the smoke is cooled by this process and thus does not irritate your lungs so much, which significantly reduces the risk of an irritable cough attack. It should also be mentioned that the filtration of the smoke makes the taste even milder and more intense.
Inexpensive percolators can be found primarily at Black Leaf. But those who want to spend a little more money can reach for the models from Weed Star. The Illusion series is particularly popular here.
In principle, the percolators work in the same way as, for example, a diffuser chillum. Here, the smoke is swirled up by the conduction of the air flow and is also mixed with oxygen. A refreshment or swirling gives the smoke an unexpected softness and freshness. Irritations are reduced and coughing fits also subside. Percolators are also a question of style. Percolators give the smoking process a visual and at the same time a novel touch. Many smokers could watch for hours how the air rotates around the individual percs and comes out fresh at the top.
Advantages / special features of a percolator
- Smoke is largely freed from dirt particles and pollutants and cooled.
- Irritations in the lungs are reduced and coughing fits are largely avoided as a result.
- Smoke becomes smoother and tastier.
- Bubbling sound serves as a relaxing side effect while smoking.
- Unique appearance is created as the smoke passes through the percolators to the top of the bong.
Cleaning percolator bongs
One might assume that cleaning a percolator bong would be difficult due to its complex construction. However, glass is a material on which deposits do not settle so easily. Of course, this does not mean that you can go on a cleaning strike, because residues will form over time. However, if you use your bong regularly and rinse it with water and detergent, cleaning your percolator bong will be absolutely no problem. In our bong shop you will also find Suitable cleaning agents and cleaning objects for your next cleaning session.
The difficulty in cleaning a percolator bong is the actual percolator itself. This is usually welded tightly into the pipe and the smoke flows through the holes, which often contains large amounts of tar and other pollutants, which on the other hand can be deposited in the percolators. In our brush category you will find utensils that can also be used to reach narrow places easily.
These percolators are obviously more difficult to clean than bongs without swirlers. These percolators are usually fitted with a grinding system and make cleaning both the percolator and the actual bong very easy. There are various home remedies for cleaning the pipe, such as denture cleaner or a special bong cleaner. No matter which cleaning agent smokers choose, the procedure is always the same. In this case, the cleaner is mixed with warm water and put into the pipe. The cleaning agent then takes effect for a longer period of time.
It is important that the pipe is completely filled with solution. For this purpose, a cap is usually needed for the chill hole and the kick hole. If the cleaning solution then also flows through the percolators several times, then even the last dirt should be removed quickly.
With the different types of bong, this process can also take a little longer than with conventional pipes. However, with a little patience and the correct tools, a perc can be cleaned just as cleanly and tastelessly as any other pipe.
What material are the percolator bongs made of?
The percolator bong has a special design, which cannot be done with just any material. Black Leaf, for example, produces Percs from selected borosilicate glass or also from glass. The manufacturer Weed Star also relies on the production of percs made of glass. In the online shops, smokers therefore get the percolators mainly made of glass.
Whether the individual percs are suitable for every smoker depends on the individual's smoking behaviour. Bong connoisseurs claim the easy handling, the multiple filtered smoke and the mild taste. Percs take a bit of getting used to as a changeover option, because their use can differ from that of other bongs in terms of the smoke puff.
Further advantages of Percolator Bongs
Percolators filter the smoke several times through the water, so that it has a more intense taste and is also milder. In addition, the bubbling sound proves to be a liberating side effect for many smokers, which can occur when smoking.
Besides their stylish character, percolators have many other positive features. The smoke is drawn through the water several times and is also filtered at the same time. For many smokers, this makes the smoke more aromatic and also milder. The bubbling sound is noted as a certain side effect, which can have a relaxing effect especially after a strenuous and also long working day. With the icebox, you inhale an even colder smoke, which can be a real boon, especially on warm summer days.
Percolator bongs have a number of advantages, which above all make the smoke optionally cooler, finer and also thinner.
However, with a number of technical gadgets, further know-how is also needed. This is why worthy first-time owners of these percolators often ask how to use the model immediately after unpacking it.
To help with this important question, there are various tutorials on the internet to help smokers enjoy the Percs. The devices are too expensive to simply gather dust in the corner.
However, if the effect of a Perc is not enough for you and you also want to defuse the smoke, you have many options. These include, above all, the classic Pre-cooler. In the meantime, the Perc technique is used for such a helper, which results in a double recovery. In addition, there is the possibility of Activated carbon filtering to smoke.
