Default How often do YOU change your bong water

If you have a bong (or many) that you use frequently often times it is easier to just leave that water in them emptying and refiling them only when needed. So to you what is "needed", how often do you think you should change bong water when being used at least once a day?

Exclamation

After every fat bowl pack. If I'm paying $40-50 for an 8th of dank, I want to get the most out of it I can get, especially the taste! I also rinse as well, I've had my minibong for over 2 months now and have smoked at least 4 ounces in it, I'm just now thinking "I gotta clean it".

REFRESH THAT WATER!

Also, something about having a glass bong chilling out on a table with nasty water in it all day seems kind of slobbish to me. BEING A STONER =/= SLOB

I agree but for one point. When your smoking through tap water your going to be vaporising a lot of chlorine from the water this is probably pretty unhealthy so by letting bong water sit longer you make it safer to smoke from. I actually find that water that's been sittting around for a bit smokes more smoothly. Perhaps brita filering the bong water will improve the flavour by removing the chlorine.

Change your water as often as possible. Some people may not be as picky as myself about their bong water but I'd make it a rule to change your water at LEAST daily. The only drawback to changing bong water is getting off your ass to do it. It's not hard. And considering the only drawback, think of the benefits. Old water has already filtered out some carcinogens and is dirty and contaminated. Dirty, contaminated water does not filter carcinogens as well as pure, fresh water. So your next session with dirty water will mean more chemicals making their way to your lungs.

A second, and I think the most important benefit, is smell. Dirty bong water has to be one of the most rancid smelling liquids I've smelled. Using dirty water, the chamber of the bong takes on this gross smell and any air (or smoke) that passes through it is going to stink just as bad. Consider taste. You can tell the difference if you use some dirty water for one hit, change the water, and take another.

Lastly, old bong water is usually at room temperature, or warm. Warm water will not cool the smoke nearly as effectively as (very) cold water. That's one of the main purposes of a bong. If you want cool smoke, use cold cold water and add ice if you prefer. Also, cold water gives off less of an odor than warm water (as seen in most foods...hot dishes smell more strongly than a popsicle) and you wont get as bad of a smell or taste from the water, even if you plan on smoking multiple bowls.

In short, just change it after every session.

After every session, for a few reasons, It's always gettin knocked over by my stoned friends, I also have to hide my bong from my litttle brother, I do that because my mom asked me too. So yah its always fresh water.

After every sesssion is a pretty good rule to live by. The smaller it's capacity for water, the more you'll need to change it. For example, my friend has a bong that holds somewhere from half a galloon to a galloon, that thing gets changed every couple days of smoking...
