Beaker Bongs

Beaker bongs come in two shapes – cone and bubble. The base of a beaker bong resembles the shape of a beaker commonly used in chemistry labs. Due to the close resemblance of the bong to a beaker, it is named as beaker bong. The bottom half of the beaker bongs is far wider than the stem, which provides the bong with a low center of gravity. As the beaker bongs have a wide base and narrow steam, they become very stable and hard to knock off. A common problem with smokers is accidentally knocking off the bong, which results in the destruction of the bong. With breaker bongs, there are fewer bongs that spill and break. People using the bong also suggest that beaker bongs are easier to clean.

In terms of usage, beaker bongs provide a large quantity of smoke because the chamber of the bong is bigger and can hold more smoke before the smoke is sucked. With a beaker bong, you obtain larger hits. Although seasoned smokers will enjoy the large hits, it may not provide the same appeal to beginners. Beaker bongs also provide a smoother experience as the surface of the chamber that holds water is larger. Compared to the straight tube, a beaker bong also produces fewer splashes.

In terms of aesthetics, beaker bongs are available in different shape and sizes. You can find the top rated beaker bongs for sale at thedailysesh.com. Some beaker bongs have the classic beaker bottom with the look of a scientific apparatus. Compared to the straight tube, beaker bongs are more variation in style and shape.

Straight Tube Bongs

As the name implies, the straight tube bongs are made of straight glass. These glass bongs are the most classic of all bongs. People suggest that the straight tube bong is much older than the beaker bong. Some suggest that the word bong is actually derived from “baung”, a Thai word meaning a cylindrical tube made from bamboo. Whichever the case, most people use a straight tube. When we think of glass bongs, the straight tube comes to mind.

The straight tube might not be as aesthetically appealing as the beaker bong; however, it is a simple to use and highly efficient. With little effort, the chamber of the straight tube fills with smoke. As the chamber of the straight tube is uniform throughout, the hit is controlled. A beginner would especially enjoy smoking with the straight tube.

Straight tubes often come with ice pinch and additional percolators. Combining both, this glass bong provides additional filtration and cooling effect. However, this feature is not exclusive to straight tube bongs, beaker bongs also have them but due to the extra space in the straight tube, there is more space for additional percolators.

The most visible drawback of the straight tube bong is that they are more prone to be tipped off.
