How to properly fill and prepare the bong
Materials:
- Bong
- Water
- Herbs or tobacco
- Lighter or hemp wick
Step 1: Fill the bong with water until the end of the downstem (the tube that extends into the water) is about 2-3 cm below the water surface. This ensures proper filtration and cooling of the smoke.
Step 2: Grind the herbs or tobacco to a fine consistency. This allows for even burning.
Step 3: Fill the bowl of the bong with the ground herbs or tobacco. Press them down gently, but not too firmly, so that air can flow through easily.

Step 4: Place your lips on the mouthpiece of the bong and hold the bowl with one hand.
Step 5: Light the lighter or hemp wick and hold the flame to the herbs in the bowl while gently inhaling through the mouthpiece. The herbs should begin to smolder and produce smoke.
Step 6: When the bowl is filled with smoke, remove the lighter and continue to inhale to draw the smoke into the chamber of the bong.
Step 7: Once you have collected enough smoke, remove the bowl or stopper (depending on the bong design) and inhale the smoke fully.

Cleaning and care of your Bong
Step 8: Empty the burnt herb or tobacco residue from the bowl. Clean the bong regularly to remove buildup and impurities.
A clean bong ensures better flavor and a more pleasant smoking experience. After each use, rinse the bong with warm water. For a deeper clean, fill the bong with isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt, seal all openings, and shake it thoroughly. Use bong brushes for hard-to-reach areas and let the bong dry completely after cleaning. This prevents mold growth and unpleasant odors.
