While bongs have encountered stiff competition from vapes recently, hundreds of thousands are still sold every year. Many bong owners ultimately decide to upgrade their bong after owning it for some time, but to do that, they need to know the gender and size of the bowl joint.
Here’s a tip: if you might want to upgrade your bong bowl in the future, purchase a bong with the most common joint size, as this will provide you with the most upgrade options.
In this post, the team at the 710 Pipes pipe shop in Denver explains how to measure the joint size of your bong and how to determine its gender.
FAQs About Grinding Weed
As you mature and become a more sophisticated consumer of cannabis you are going to drop some practices and pick up on others. One of the things almost everyone eventually gravitates to is the grinder. The marijuana grinder can make a big difference in the quality of your experience while at the same time cutting prep time dramatically and eliminating the need to wash your hands so much (if you grind with your hands, like a lot of folks do). In this post, the team at the 710 Pipes headshop in Denver answer some of the most common questions our customers have about grinding weed.
How To Corner a Bowl (and Why You Should)

What are Pipe Screens and Do You Need One?
If there were no pipe screens and you loaded your heady glass bowl with weed and sparked it up you’d inhale a bunch of gnarly detritus from the buds. The screen is what prevents that from happening. Most pipe screens are made of brass or stainless steel, although in some high-end bongs, the screen may be fashioned from something exotic like titanium or quartz. Without pipe screens, smoking herb would be a decidedly different experience than it is now. So we’ve put together this short guide in order to give some props to the humble screen.
Ash Catchers: Do You Need One?
The nature of the bong accessory is to improve the smoking experience. It’s that simple.

The ash catcher is one of those that has caught on with bong aficionados everywhere, but is that just a case of keeping up with the jones’ or are there real merits to having one? In this post, the staff at our Denver headshop address the issue.
