What is a one hitter pipe?

One-hitter pipes are easily one of the most compact smoking devices on the market today. Its simple design consists of a small bowl and a mouthpiece. As you can probably guess, your weed can be packed into this little bowl. From here you simply need to bring a flame to the bowl and enjoy your day.

Some one-hitters are even designed to look like tobacco cigarettes. This makes them ideal for public use as from a distance others will think a regular cigarette is being smoked.
5 benefits of one hitter pipes
1. One hitter pipes are discreet
As we have now well established by now one hitter pipes are perfect for keeping things low-key. Their discreet design is great for public use. Not only that but the weed smell isn’t as likely to linger with one hitter pipes when compared to smoking a joint.
2. One-hitters are portable
These bad boys are the Gameboy Advance of the weed world. They are the perfect size to stash in your pocket or purse. If you are looking for a smoking device that you can travel easily with then the one hitter pipe is for you.
You don’t need anything extra such as water or fancy add-ons like a bong. One hitter pipes come ready to go. You can even pre-pack the bowl before heading out on your weed-filled adventures.
3. One-hitters make dosage easy
Another great advantage of one hitter pipes is it gives the user the ability to dose and conserve their cannabis. You don’t have to commit to smoking a large bowl every time like with a bong or a regular-sized pipe. You can enjoy a small about of cannabis and feel an easy buzz instead of getting blasted high. Now, this could be a disadvantage to some. But we will leave that up to you.
4. One hitter pipes are ideal for tasting sessions
These pipes are excellent when it comes to trying new strains for the first time. With one hitter pipes, you can take it low and slow. This will give you a better idea of how your body and mind react to different strains and amounts of cannabis.
One-hitters can therefore also be a more effective method of dosing cannabis correctly for medicinal users than smoking an entire joint. However, if that’s your purpose, we’d always still recommend a vaporizer.
5. One hitter pipes are easy to clean
Thanks to their small size one hitter pipes are also very easy to clean. As with regular weed pipes, one-hitters are made from a wide variety of materials such as metal, wood and glass. Glass has widely considered the best material for one hitter pipes as it handles heat well, doesn’t contaminate your smoke with unwanted chemicals and is easier to clean.
Glass one-hitters are cleaned the same way as their normal-sized cousins. The only difference is it takes a little less time with these smaller pipes.
