The 5.5" Blue Frit Rasta Scribble Bubbler is a compact glass water pipe built for flower smokers who want smooth hits without the bulk of a full-size bong. At 5.5 inches tall with a stable base that stands on its own, this bubbler delivers water-filtered hits in a portable package. The blue frit glass construction with red, yellow, and green rasta-colored scribble accents gives each piece a unique look while keeping the price point accessible for everyday use.
Key Benefits
- Water filtration in a portable size — 5.5 inches tall means smooth hits without taking up your whole coffee table or backpack
- Stands up on its own — flat base keeps it stable between hits so you're not babysitting your piece
- Blue frit glass with rasta accents — textured glass surface with red, yellow, and green scribble details makes each piece visually distinct
- Ready for flower — fixed bowl design for dry herb, no extra pieces to lose or break
- Daily driver pricing — affordable enough to grab as a backup or starter piece without overthinking it
Best For
This bubbler works for flower smokers who want water filtration without committing to a full rig setup. It's solid for people with limited space (dorm rooms, small apartments, car kits) or anyone who wants a grab-and-go piece that still cools the smoke. If you're splitting time between locations or just need something that fits in a drawer, this hits the mark. Also works as a budget-friendly option for new smokers or as a backup when your main piece is getting cleaned.
How It Works
Fill the chamber with enough water to cover the downstem (usually about halfway up the bubble chamber). Pack the fixed bowl with ground flower, light while drawing air through the mouthpiece. The smoke pulls through the water, which cools and filters it before you inhale. The flat base design means you can set it down mid-session without worrying about it tipping over.
Bubblers sit between hand pipes and full bongs in terms of filtration and portability. You get smoother hits than a dry pipe because of the water chamber, but you're not lugging around a foot-tall piece. The fixed bowl means less maintenance than modular bongs with removable downstems, but you can't swap parts if something breaks.
Clean it regularly to keep airflow clear. The frit glass texture can trap resin faster than smooth glass, so rinse after heavy use. For deeper cleans, soak in isopropyl alcohol, shake with coarse salt to scrub the interior, then rinse thoroughly and let it dry before using again.

Limitations
This is a fixed-bowl bubbler, so if the bowl or downstem cracks, you're replacing the whole piece. The compact size means the water chamber is small — you'll want to change the water more often than you would with a bigger bong. Frit glass looks cool but can be harder to clean thoroughly compared to smooth glass. Not ideal for super heavy sessions where you need massive rips; it's better suited for solo or small-group use.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much water do I put in this thing?
Fill until the water covers the downstem by about a quarter to half an inch. Too much water and you'll get splashback; too little and you're basically smoking dry. Test draw without lighting to check airflow before packing the bowl.
Can I remove the bowl to clean it?
No, the bowl is fixed (built into the piece). You'll need to clean it in place using isopropyl alcohol and salt, or pipe cleaners for the downstem. It's less modular than bubblers with removable parts, but also fewer pieces to lose or break.
What's frit glass and does it affect the smoking experience?
Frit glass is made by melting crushed glass particles onto the surface, creating a textured, speckled look. It doesn't change how the bubbler smokes, but the texture can trap resin faster than smooth glass, so you'll need to clean it more often to keep airflow clean.
Is this small enough to travel with?
At 5.5 inches, it fits in most backpacks or larger bags. It's more portable than a full bong but still glass, so wrap it in a towel or padded case if you're moving it around. Not pocket-sized, but definitely road-trip friendly if you're careful.
Does it come with a grinder or any accessories?
No, you're getting the bubbler only. You'll need your own grinder and lighter. If you're new to bubblers, grab some isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt for cleaning while you're at it.
Will the colors fade or change over time?
The rasta scribble accents are baked into the glass during manufacturing, so they won't fade from regular use or cleaning. Heavy resin buildup can make the glass look cloudy, but that's on the inside and cleans off with alcohol.
Can I use this for concentrates or just flower?
This bubbler is designed for flower. The fixed bowl isn't set up for a quartz banger or nectar collector attachment. If you're looking for concentrate gear, check out dab rigs or dedicated nectar collectors instead.
