How do you clean glycerin coils?
Cleaning glycerin coils is as simple as caring for any other piece. All you need is 91% isopropyl alcohol and some large-grained salt like Epsom or kosher. Take a couple of teaspoons of salt and put it in a container just bigger than the coils, preferably something that can close like Tupperware or a Ziploc bag.
How long does it take glycerin to get cold?
Its made with one special ingredient, liquid glycerin. By adding liquid glycerin in to the bowl and base of the piece, the entire bong will get icy cold without ever actually freezing. All you have to do is pop your Glyco in the freezer for an hour and it will come out chilled and stay that way for hours.
What does a glycerin coil do?
Organic and made from fatty acids, this liquid glycerin prevents ice particles from forming, meaning it won’t expand as it freezes and affect the integrity of your glass. Its high melting point will keep it frozen for longer than ice and won’t melt, overfilling your water and splashing into your mouth when you draw.
How do you clean illadelph coils?
For all cleaning purposes we recommend Randy’s Black Label Cleaner. Black Label is a lightning fast resin and goo cleaning solution for any metal, glass, or ceramic smoking utensil. Just apply Black Label to any piece, shake, and let it soak for a few minutes before rinsing out in warm water.
Is it OK to freeze glycerin?
Please note that although pure glycerin freezes at 17°C, it will typically supercool at temperatures below this, and become very thick instead of freezing. If trying to achieve acceptable performance at low temperatures an ideal mixture of glycerin/water is between 60/40 and 70/30, as can be see in the graph below.
What is a freezable coil bong?
Freeze Pipe is a glass hand pipe featuring a freezable glycerin coil. When smoke passes through the frozen chamber it’s instantly cooled (by over 300 degrees) to a chilly temperature resulting in a dramatically smooth and clean toke. Ice-cold and extremely smooth hits.
Can you use glycerin in a bong?
Your bong won’t wind up overflowing with excess water from rapidly melting ice. Of the many various techniques – adding ice, ash catchers, cold water, etc. – the glycerin coil is the most innovative way to keep your smoke cool, smooth and pleasant. Glycerin is the modern way to upgrade bongs with cooling features.
At what temperature does glycerin evaporate?
Methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol boil at 65°C (149°F), 78°C (172°F), and 83°C (181°F), all less than the boiling point of water, and they all evaporate more easily than water. Glycerol boils at a whopping 290°C (554°F), far above the boiling point of water.

How long should I freeze my freeze pipe?
It freezes quicker than water and stays frozen longer. It also doesn’t expand and contract like water does so there’s no added pressure on the glass. Pop this baby in the freezer for at least 1-hour and it’ll stay cold for you and a few friends to get where you wanna go.
