I’m thinking about getting my first hand pipe and have been looking around. When I roll a joint, I always roll with charcoal filters, and I’d like to keep using filters when smoking a pipe. Now, this is the absolute standard for tobacco pipes, but for weed bowl pipes, it’s apparently not?
I don’t get it, it filters out harmful stuff, it’s cheap, easy, already normal for joints, but somehow, no nice glass bowl pipe I find has a mouthpiece that allows for charcoal filters.
Am I dumb and there’s a trick to using filters with those pipes I’m not getting?
If you don't want to breathe in harmful combustion products, your best bet is not producing any. I suggest you consider buying a vaporizer. And I don't mean the concentrate pens, but dry herb vaporizers.
Since you're not burning your flower you can actually taste the various terpenes and it's much easier on the lungs.I use an activated carbon filter for my bong, absolutely love it. They have them at most head shops I’ve been to, or you can get a grav online or something like that.
I am unsure about these types of filters. I'm a big fan of bongs/bubbler and don't normally smoke joints. However I do know of moose labs. They have filters for joints, bongs, ect.
If this is what you're talking about then I think the reason for this is glass had pipes have such a huge array of sizes that it's hard to make a filter for them.
