Glass blowers are always looking to find new ways to enhance the smoking experience and innovate glass pipe designs. One of the most popular inventions in the last decade is the incycler dab rig. But what even are they? How do they compare to other dab rigs and what are the benefits of using one?
What are Incycler Bongs?
An incycler rig is a type of water pipe that recycles water within itself. This allows for a splash free bong with maximum function. Incyclers achieve this within one chamber. It features a main chamber, a splash guard, and a drain all in one. The inner chamber connects all the parts of the bong inside the piece through a series of tubes.
The purpose of an incycler rig is to create a smoother, cooler hit by recycling the water multiple times before it is inhaled. The recycling process is the most effective design when it comes to function and an incycler is no exception.
Incycler bongs are made from borosilicate glass and can often feature intricate designs and additional features to trick the piece out.
Benefits of Incycler Bongs
There are several benefits to using an incycler bong, including:
-
Cooler smoke: As the smoke recycles multiple times, it will cool down until it is a perfect temperature for you to inhale.
-
Purer smoke: The recycling process also helps to filter out impurities and unwanted particles, resulting in a purer smoke.
-
Enhanced filtration: When you pair an incycler with a high end percolator like the seed of life percolator, the filtration and function of these pieces is top shelf.
-
Unique design: Incycler bongs often feature intricate designs and can be considered a statement piece for any smoking setup.
How to Use an Incycler Dab Rig
Using an incycler bong is relatively straightforward and similar to using a traditional bong. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use one:
-
Fill the bong with water to the desired level. The water should cover the percolators of the bong. After this you can play around with the water level for the perfect recycle for your strength of hit.
-
Place your quartz nail in the downstem
- Heat up your quartz nail to prepare for your dab.
-
Let the quartz nail cool down until it is the ideal temperature for a low temperature dab.
- Place your dab on the nail and then place your carb cap on after.
-
Slowly inhale through the mouthpiece. As you continue to inhale, the smoke will be drawn through the inner chamber and recycled through the tubes or channels back into the main chamber.
-
Once you've taken your hit, remove the carb cap and clean your quartz nail with a q-tip.
How to Take Care of Your Incycler
Proper care and maintenance are essential to keeping your incycler bong in good condition and ensuring that it continues to function optimally. Here are some tips on how to care for your incycler bong:
- Clean it regularly: It's important to clean your incycler bong regularly to remove any built-up wax and ensure that it functions properly. You can use isopropyl alcohol and salt to really give it a good clean.
-
Be gentle: Incycler bongs are made of glass, which can be fragile. Be sure to handle your bong gently and avoid dropping it or knocking it over.
- Store it away: when you aren't using your incycler, place it in a case or up on a shelf to keep it safe and away from accidental damage.
