Scooby snacks are the little bits of embers, ash, or charred crumbs that hit the back of your throat when you inhale. Water pipes filter this stuff out.
The commenter is claiming that a dirty pipe (caked with resin from previous sessions) catches some of those particles, which is… a take…
Yeah, too much resin caked up can make it nauseating to smoke out of, aside from being disgusting and smelling bad. And eventually it can start clogging if it isn’t cleaned.
Get yourself a jar, fill it with everclear (or isopropyl 91%), soak the thing in it for a few hours, then run some water through it. Repeat if necessary, and scrub it with a pipe brush as needed. Probably only needed once every few months or so, depending on how much you use it.
In between deep cleanings, use paper towels or cotton pads with some alcohol to clean the bowl and mouthpiece before or after each session. No big deal.
Resonated bowls prevent scooby snacks. If it ain’t water filtered keep it dirty
Clean your nasty ass bowl and get a pipe screen. They’re like 10 cents
No 💗
I’m pretty sure heating up metal to glowing and inhaling the products isn’t great for you.
Brass is fine to heat and inhale through, but there’s also glass screens
Glass screens clog in like 0.2 seconds
Explain, please?

I thought as much… Thank you. Yeah, for the record, I emphatically disagree with that take.

A little bit of resin is ok. When I was a daily smoker, I’d put the kettle on then pour the hot water through the pipe. Easy peasy
Ah, I never tried that. Smart. I don’t smoke anymore. I lost the desire to after years of knowing it was harming me but continuing to do it anyway.
But yeah, a little resin is fine, that’s why I said cleaning it every few months or so is enough
