What is a spoon pipe?
A spoon pipe has three parts - the bowl part, the
carb, the stem, and the mouthpiece. The bowl part is where the material is placed. The carb allows to let go of the smoke that builds up in the pipe chamber. The spoon pipe is named as such, as it resembles a kitchen spoon.
The spoon pipe is one of the most popular styles of
glass pipes. The name and shape of a spoon pipe take a few cues from the silverware in your kitchen cupboards. In a spoon pipe, a wide bowl is located at one end with a chamber that gradually tapers into a mouthpiece at the other end of the pipe.
A carburetor is often included adjacent to the bowl, giving you a bit more control over your hit. But other than this, spoon pipes are dead simple. Just load it and take a puff!

What to consider when buying a spoon pipe?
There are a few key things to look for when picking out a new spoon pipe.
- Size: Your pipe's size affects how big the bowl is and how well the pipe can cool the smoke before it is inhaled. Larger pipes have bigger bowls, letting you pack more material. They also offer larger chambers, giving the smoke more space to expand and travel, creating a smoother smoking experience.
- Cleaning: You’ll need to regularly clean out your pipe to keep it from becoming harsh or foul-tasting. Make sure you find a pipe with openings in the bowl, mouthpiece, and carb that can easily admit pipe cleaners or be filled with solvent to remove any buildup of tar and resin.
- Durability: Look for a pipe that is constructed from thick, resilient glass. Avoid spoon pipes with thin glass, weak points, or protruding parts that can easily be snapped off.
How to Smoke Using a Spoon Pipe?
You can smoke from your spoon pipe just as you would any other smoking pipe. It doesn’t require any special technique or preparation. Just load your material into the bowl, cover the carb, apply your favorite heat source, and inhale! Just like that, you’re off to the races.
How to Load a Spoon Pipe?
You can load your spoon pipe with a small, loosely packed bundle of your favorite dried herb material. Cut or grind the herb until it is fine and loose. Packing too tight will restrict airflow and diminish the quality of your hit, or even clog the bowl. To help prevent clogging, you can add a small metal screen to the bottom of your bowl. This prevents larger material from being drawn into the bowl or chamber of the pipe.
