Cough to get off?
Not so much anymore.
As some of us have gotten older we no longer go to crazy teen style parties with the oversized water pipe that takes someone else to light it for you. We have become everyday medicinal smokers, coughing to get off, now becomes an unpleasant, unhealthy, red faced experience. Though sometimes it may feel wonderful, we all know coughing is your body’s way of saying “that is too much” and it is defending itself.
Thumb carbureted water pipes allow you to control the smoke to air mixture.
Lift your thumb slightly to let in the appropriate amount of cool air in, to adjust the smoke to air mixture to your throat and lungs liking.
Stop thinking of the carb as a way to clear the pipe. Rather, think of the carb as a way to mix cooler air in with your smoke. Hopefully causing you to cough a lot less!
