The 8" Encore 7mm Color Lip/Base Beaker is a 8"-tall borosilicate water pipe built for daily flower sessions. Here's the quick read:
Free glass bowl included. Every bong we ship includes a matching flower bowl so you can pack and light on day one.
This is a proper daily-driver bong. We picked it up because it hits the right balance between heft and pourability — tall enough to cool the smoke properly, but not so massive it becomes a commitment to set up. The base is weighted so it stays put on a coffee table, and the joint accepts any standard bowl you already own.
A 7mm thick bong is where flower enthusiasts settle in for the long haul. If your current piece is a thin mystery-glass tube from a gas station, this is a real upgrade. We'd also recommend it to anyone hosting — it's sturdy enough to pass around without everyone holding their breath.
Worth Noting: Thick-wall glass doesn't mean indestructible. Dropping any bong onto a hard floor still ends badly. A bong mat under it on hardwood or tile will pay for itself.

Recap: 8" borosilicate bong, 7mm thick wall construction, 7mm female joint. Uses standard US-size bowls. Base is beaker or straight depending on model. Free flower bowl ships with every bong.
Change water after each session. Once a week, drain fully, fill with 91% iso plus a tablespoon of kosher salt, plug the mouthpiece and joint with your thumbs, shake for about a minute, rinse with hot water, repeat if needed. Skip the dish soap — residue takes forever to rinse out. For resin rings on thick glass, extend the iso soak to an hour before shaking.
Enough to cover the downstem slits by one inch. Below that, you lose percolation; above it, you'll get water pulled up into your mouth. If unsure, fill less and take a dry test pull to check draw.
If your bowl is 7mm male (the most common US size), yes. 18mm bowls won't fit. Check the flared base of your bowl — most US bowls are 14mm.
The included bowl is a standard flower bowl with a natural choke point. We recommend adding a glass screen or small metal screen to prevent pull-through — they're a dollar or two in our flower bowls collection.
