Water Pipes

Simply, water pipes consist of a bowl and a cylinder glass piece called a downstem through which the smoke travels and is filtered through water before going up the water pipe’s neck to the mouthpiece.

Water pipes are made up of 5 different parts:
Base - The chamber that holds the water.
Tube - The pipe that you place your mouth on to inhale.
Bowl - A bowl-like holder for the cannabis flower.
Downstem - A small tube under the bowl that pulls the smoke into the base.
Carb - The chamber in which the bowl sits.

Here's how to use your water pipe:

Step 1: Prep
Place clean water into the bottom of your water pipe, making sure that the downstem is halfway submerged.
Step 2: Grind & Pack
Place your flower in a grinder and grind it to the right consistency. Then, pack the ground flower into the water pipe’s bowl.
Step 3: Light It
Place your lips at the top of the water pipe’s tube and light the flower in the bowl. Inhale gently and slowly. You’ll hear the water start to bubble and you may be able to see vapor start to fill the water pipe’s tube.
Step 4: Remove the Bowl & Inhale
Carefully remove the bowl from the carb to allow air to flow into the water pipe’s base and up into the tube. Now, all you have to do is inhale.
