Why choose a hand pipe?
Hand pipes have numerous advantages. They are small enough to fit in your pocket, so you can take them with you wherever you go. Hand pipes are also one of the easiest ways to smoke, and if you invest in a higher-quality model, it will last for many years. Finally, hand pipes are quite fun! However, choosing your first hand pipe can be difficult because there are so many options available. You could become an enthusiastic collector of artisanal handcrafted pipes!
Although hand pipes come in a dazzling array of designs, they all have the same four functional components. Let's take a look at them:
- The bowl is where you place your herbs. Bowls come in many sizes, but beginners typically prefer smaller bowls.
- The carb is the tiny hole that regulates airflow and makes hits smoother. To use it, place your finger over the carb as you inhale, then release it when you’re almost done drawing in more smoke for a bigger hit. Most hand pipes have the carb next to the bowl, but on some models, it may be in front or slightly higher.
- The pipe’s chamber shaft delivers the smoke, cooling it on its journey to your mouth. Shorter chamber shafts create hotter smoke, while longer ones will give you a cooler experience.
- The mouthpiece is what you use to inhale your smoke.
