Bubblers and hot smoke?

[MotleyCrueBoy24]

Maybe a newbie question...

but I've never smoked out of a bubbler and I'd like to know....

Is the smoke from a bubbler cooled down a lot.....

I'm guessing yes.

If you use water, then yes. If you use no water, it's like hitting an oversized pipe, which can be harsh.

I use my bubbler dry sometimes and it isn't that harsh. You just get a bigger lungful of smoke. With good weed of course. ;)

bubblers actually have less water/smoke contact than bongs and less water so it doesnt really get cooled that much, just smoothed and made dense.

five0addict is right, now a bong with a little ice in the water will cool that smoke down real nice. If that's what your looking for then a bong is your better choice.

Bubblers are also too nice tho, don't get me wrong.

I was in a shop just last night asking the people there this same question. They told me it would cool the smoke down... then I asked how they were compared to bongs and they said it was just a difference in portability.

I was looking at the small bubblers... which are pretty sick in my opinion. I'm sure bubblers cool the smoke a little, but I can't see them being able to compete with a bong full of water and ice. But if you're comparing just a straight pipe with a bubbler then I'd assume the bubbler is better.

On a side note, does anyone know why a tiny bubbler is almost $20 more than a medium sized heavy glass bong???

I hear ya Toker :thumbsup: Prices can get a little odd in certain shops.
