Glass Candle Bong
A bong is a device used for smoking marijuana that works on the principle of water filtration, cleansing the smoke and making the experience smoother and more enjoyable. A Candle Bong is a unique method that uses candle heat (or another alternative heat source) to warm the cannabis and create vapor. Unlike traditional bongs that burn the plant directly, the candle bong provides smoother, more flavorful, and efficient smoke.
The process involves filling the bong with water, choosing a neutral-scented candle, and using a glass surface to heat the cannabis, creating vapor that passes through the water before being inhaled. This method is often used for low-temperature vaporization, preserving terpenes and aroma while avoiding combustion.
Traditional Bong vs. Candle Bong
| Feature | Traditional Bong | Candle Bong |
|---|---|---|
| Heat Source | Lighter or butane | Candle heat |
| Heating Method | Direct combustion | Slow vaporization |
| Smoke Type | Harsh and hot | Smooth and cool |
| Toxins | Higher due to burning | Minimal, no combustion |
| Flavor & Aroma | Partially lost | Richer, preserves terpenes |
| Effect | Fast and intense | Gradual and long-lasting |
When using a candle bong, cannabis is not burned, which reduces the amount of toxic residue. Additionally, the effects are longer-lasting. It’s slower and more pleasant. Most importantly, the candle bong preserves terpenes well, meaning the cannabis aroma is richer.
