I have been wondering recently if there is anything that is better at filtering all the tar and stuff out of my smoke but while leaving most of the THC I have read a lot about people using different fluids (gatorade, warm water, vodka) but those seem to be more for flavor and in less interested in that. I'm interested in just performance cuz the sugar and fat and what not hold onto some THC. I'm also curious if anyone has noticed a difference between tap water and something like reverse osmosis water ie Dasani. Thanks in advance! Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
carbon filter is about the closest thing to what your looking for, but it's not a fluid. Attach it to your downstem and it filters more and helps keep your bong a bit cleaner.
not that I know of. just use water. empty out after each use, do a weekly iso+salt clean and you're good.
Any water that doesn't smell like well water should be fine. The key to having a great hit is keeping your bong crispy clean and changing your water every day or before every session.
Putting cold or iced water in your bong and taking huge hits is NOT safe because the super condensed smoke expands almost instantly when inhaled, and is damaging to fragile lung tissue and can cause villi to actually burst. Warm water is actually the best for your lungs, you get plenty of filtration, without the dangers of super condensed smoke. Watch a video on youtube of someone taking a 1 gram bong hit using massive iced up rigs, those people will be hurting badly when they get old, guarantee it.
The carbon filter doesn't filter out THC? Is it just an attachment like an ash catcher/ pre cooler? Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Nope. And yeah it's sort of functions like an ashcatcher/ diffuser. Here's a description I found "Activated carbon improves your smoke flavor and keep your bong clean and healthy by filtering out many toxins and carcinogens, protecting the main bong chamber from unwanted dirt, ash and residue from the bowl." Grasscity sells them but you need to buy the 1. the carbon stones 2. the attatchment for your bong, both of them are inexpensive. http://www.grasscity.com/int_en/black-leaf-carbon-filter-adapter.html#.U5Ohxdq9KSM Admittedly I haven't tried them but I've heard good things so I would definitely take a look
Honestly, water is where its at. But, I would be intrested in seeing the diffrences between tap water and that reverse osmisis shit. They do add stuff to that water if i remember correctly. I personally use tap water, becuase it would get a little expensive going to get a bottle of dansani or aquafina everytime i wanted to use my bong. What im wondering if it makes a diffrence on how smooth the hits are. Its going to take countless man hours and about an oz to test this, but hey, for science right?
I may have to try that carbon filter, also next time I get some bud I'll try to compare different waters and maybe wright down what I find. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Yes yes, it reminds me of my girlfriend..... every time i take a huge rip it makes me wanna fap :l Sent from my LGMS769 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
There isn't a major difference haha. I experimented with unfiltered tap water, filtered tap water, bottled glacier water from Iceland, and mineral water. The unfiltered tap water had an off taste and the mineral water wasn't as good as could be. The filtered water works great and the Icelandic glacier water was really smooth! Overall though there wasn't a big enough of a difference between the bottled water and the filtered tap water to justify buying a $2.50 bottle of water for my bong when I have a Brita filter on the kitchen sink.
