Bong Pre-Coolers
Pre-cooler for bongs - more cooling & less dirt for your smoking experience
A pre-cooler is the ideal addition to your bong if you are looking for a smoother, cooler and cleaner smoking experience. The additional water filtration makes the smoke more pleasant and milder, while dirt particles and ash are trapped before they reach the main chamber. This keeps your bong cleaner for longer and significantly reduces the amount of cleaning required.
Why a pre-cooler enhances your bong
A pre-cooler not only improves the cooling of the smoke, but also ensures more efficient filtering of pollutants. The additional water reservoir means that unwanted particles are already retained in the pre-cooler. This leads to:
- ✅ Cooler and smoother puffs, as the smoke is channelled through another water bath.
- ✅ Fewer deposits in the main bong, as dirt and ash remain in the pre-cooler.
- ✅ Longer cleaning intervals - the bong stays clean for longer.
Pre-cooler vs. ash catcher - Which function is right for you?
| Function | Advantages ✅ | Disadvantages ❌ |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-cooler | ✅ Cools the smoke & makes it smoother ✅ Reduces pollutants through additional water filtration ✅ Keeps the bong clean for longer |
❌ Slightly more complex to clean ❌ Increases the weight of the bong ❌ Can slightly change the draw behaviour |
| Ash catcher | ✅ Catches ash & coarse dirt ✅ Keeps the bong clean for longer ✅ Easy to clean & handle |
❌ No cooling of the smoke ❌ Less filtration than a pre-cooler ❌ Can clog up quickly |
If you are hesitating between a pre-cooler and an ash catcher, you should know which function is more suitable for you:
- Pre-cooler: Cooler puffs & more water filtration, ideal for a milder smoking experience.
- Ash catcher: Specially designed to reduce ash residue, keeps the bong clean without greatly affecting the smoking temperature.
If you value gentle inhalation, a pre-cooler is the best choice. If you want to protect your bong from coarse soiling but don't care about cooling, an ash catcher could be sufficient.
How to find the right pre-cooler for your bong
To ensure that your pre-cooler fits your bong perfectly, you should pay attention to the following points:
- Ground joint size: The most common sizes are 14.5 mm and 18.8 mm. Make sure that the pre-cooler is compatible with your bong.
- Construction: Straight or angled pre-coolers affect how well they fit your bong. Check whether your setup is suitable for a particular design.
Advantages of pre-coolers with a percolator
A pre-cooler with percolator improves your smoking experience by providing additional filtration and cooling. The percolator creates fine bubbles, allowing the smoke to come into contact with water more intensively. This makes it smoother and cooler. The bong also stays clean for longer.
Cleaning the pre-cooler - keeping your accessories in top shape
A pre-cooler not only improves your smoking experience, but should also be cleaned regularly to avoid deposits and contamination. As dirt and tar particles accumulate in a pre-cooler, thorough cleaning is essential for a clear flavour and a long service life. The best cleaning methods are
- Rinse with hot water: after each use, you should rinse the pre-cooler with hot water to remove light deposits.
- Isopropanol & salt: A mixture of isopropanol (min. 90%) and coarse salt is suitable for stubborn dirt - shake well and leave to work.
- Brush or pipe cleaner: Small brushes help to clean hard-to-reach areas.
- Do not use boiling water: Excessively high temperatures can damage the glass - lukewarm to hot water is perfectly adequate.
A clean pre-cooler ensures a cleaner flavour and better draught. Regular maintenance significantly extends the service life of your accessories.
