Keeping a bong or mini water pipe is a lot cheaper and easier than what you might think. If you want to and can set aside 5-15 minutes of your schedule once every month, you can surely keep your favorite Glass Beaker Bong shiny and sparkling. While regular cleaning and wiping makes things a lot easier, you need a few supplies to clean and maintain the nastiest and most stubborn pieces. The first step is prepping the piece. You need to separate every moving piece from the bong. The right cleaning generally involves a thorough shaking of the piece along with some scrubbing, as the debris can damage the fragile, delicate glass parts in case of any oversight.

The parts you separate in your Glass Beaker Bong are the stem, the slide, and the bong itself. Segregate them for a proper cleaning. you can wear latex gloves because it could be hard to remove the resin's smell from your hands. Rinse out the bong's pieces in hot water. It helps in loosening up many bigger resin chunks that may clog the bong. Do remember that the hotter the water, the better will be the cleaning. You can use tongs for gripping the bong in case you can't secure it properly.

Don't use hot water on any cold object as it can shatter the pieces. If your bong is cold, start rinsing with lukewarm water and raise the temperature slowly and steadily. If you want to clean it routinely, you can just rinse the bong and proceed to further cleaning. If there are big pieces of resin, knock them off with pipe cleaners or cotton swabs. If you can see or touch any large chunks, resin, or tar, just knock them off with the scrubbing.

If your Glass Beaker Bong is small and experiences thick, touch stains on the bowl or slide, it can help in freezing the product for 30 minutes. The process loosens up the resin chunks, making them a lot easier to remove. However, make sure you dry the bowl or container before freezing it. Use plastic bags that you can reseal for holding the smaller parts. Make sure the bags can ensure an effective sealing. You can use the bags that hold the cleaning fluid. Soak the little pieces in the meantime. Although you can do it simultaneously, it's best to put them in separate bags.
