WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SMOKING ACCESSORIES?
Various accessories help you level up your smoking game, either before you start or while you’re inhaling. Most of these products, such as ash catchers, smoking bowls, and bangers, are designed for herbs and optimize the smoking process. Downstems can even be changed to a different style to enhance performance for smoother hits. Adding extras like an ash catcher to transform your session or changing the style of your downstem for smoother hits allows you to experience different results with your favorite herbs.
Are you tired of deep cleaning your bong because you’re breathing in ash and harsh hits from all that resin? Ash catchers keep your bong and hits cleaner and minimize those complicated maintenance steps. Do you feel like you have a lot of wasted weed? A smoking bowl with multiple holes, like our 7-hole bowl, burns the cannabis more efficiently. They also keep less weed from getting pulled into the water. Maybe you’re ready to try concentrates or oils, but your current bong isn’t designed for that. Bangers and nails let you experiment without investing in a dab or oil rig.
What are all these other smoking accessories, and how can you buy them? Let’s explore each of them in detail here.
ASH CATCHERS
Ash catchers are vital for keeping your bong or bubbler clean. They attach to your smoking device and act as a barrier, catching ash and smoking material before they enter your pipe’s water chamber. Adding an ash catcher keeps your bong looking fresh and your hits tasting clean. It controls ash and resin so your sessions stay smooth from start to finish.
They provide additional filtration through water that diffuses the toke more. Use them with percolators to diffuse the smoke and catch most of the ash in the water. That extra layer of filtering helps your main bong stay cleaner and makes each pull feel lighter and easier. If the style is important to you, consider swapping out different ash catchers to customize your bong and match the quality of the smoke you’re looking for. Our ash catchers come in a variety of sizes and designs, made to fit different bongs and bubblerswhile keeping your smoke clean and your setup looking sharp.
SMOKING BOWLS
Smoking bowls are essential for any smoker’s collection, and are made to hold cannabis flower, tobacco, or other herbs. They’re available in different designs, shapes, colors, materials, and sizes to fit your pipe or bong. Our bowl designs are made for a smooth, even burn, so every hit feels right and you get the most from your weed.
Are you ready to “pack” a bowl? I’m sure you've heard people say this phrase, but if you're not sure what it means, it refers to filling your bowl with ground flower before you smoke it. The key is to place the ground bud in a bowl, but don’t pack it too tightly, or you won't be able to draw in smoke. Not just any smoking bowl will do, though. Make sure the material of your bowl is heat-resistant as well as something that will not affect the flavor, like those we offer at Purr Glass.
Pro tip: Light the ground flower with a pocket wick instead of a butane lighter, as the butane can affect the flavor of a hit. When using a hemp lighter, light the end of the wick and use that to light the bowl.
BANGERS AND NAILS
Bangers and nails are crucial for dabbing enthusiasts. They are heated to vaporize concentrates like wax or oil. Our bangers and nails are made from high-performance quartz and titanium,designed to handle high heat and steady use while keeping the flavor true. Each piece pairs well with a range of dab rigs, giving you reliable performance and a smooth, even dab every time.
Quartz bangers provide the best flavor profile, allowing the full taste of the terpenes to come through. They come in different shapes and sizes and have a deep dish and a joint that attaches to your dab rig at a 90-degree or 45-degree angle.
DOWNSTEMS
A downstem connects the bowl to the water chamber, pulling smoke in from the bowl, through the water to filter, and cool it before you inhale. That glass downstem breaks the smoke into bubbles that catch ash and tar, giving you a cleaner, smoother hit. The best is glass, but you’ll also see silicone or metal options if you want something different.
At Purr Glass, our lineup includes a range of designs, like the Matrix Downstem that gives maximum diffusion, or the Showerhead and 12-Slit options that provide lower profile diffusion, or the 6-Slit that has an open bottom, all ranging from light and airy to dense and direct. Whether you’re chasing smooth hits or a little extra resistance, the right percolation makes all the difference.
When you're ready to add or replace one, pay attention to your bong’s size and joint fit. Downstems come in several lengths and styles, and the right one will keep the airflow smooth and effortless. Keep it clean with Purr Glass Cleaner to maintain performance and flavor. A good downstem is what turns a basic setup into a smoother, easier smoke every time.
DAB TOOLS
Dab tools are essential for handling and applying concentrates to a heated nail or quartz banger. A dab tool is designed for handling concentrates and oils. They’re typically elongated dabber picks with a sharp point made from stainless steel or glass. The dabbing process involves picking up a dab of cannabis concentrate, applying it to a heated surface called a nail or banger on a dab rig, and inhaling the vapor. Dab tools are designed for heat and are 100% safe for this process. Fortunately, using a dab tool is super easy:
- Use your tool to pick up your concentrate.
- Apply it to the heated nail or banger on your dab rig.
- Cover the opening of your banger with a carb cap.
- Slowly inhale the vapor.
- Rotate the tip to prevent dripping and catch the excess oil.
- Exhale.
- Contemplate the endless bounds of the universe.
- Repeat.
Our dab tools are built to make handling concentrates easy and safe. Made from materials that work with high temperatures, and give you control where it counts, they’re simple, sturdy, and reliable.
