Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Hi All........

I'll be in Amsterdam beginning of August catching up with old friends. I used to enjoy a regular smoke but had to give it up a few years ago ( did you notice the drop in Rizla share price a few years back..?) and haven't smoked since.
I'm looking forward to rolling a few joints but need a bit of advice about vaporisers,pipes and bongs. I know a few shops have them available so I was wondering......

1)Is one bag of vapour equivalent to a whole joint ?? ( I know that it will depend on the amount of weed you use in each but roughly whats the approxiamtion).

2)Is there a prefered weed to use in them ??

3) used to have an old style perspex bong years ago which was rough as hell.....are the arabian style hooka's any smoother.

Really looking forward to the trip so please throw any advice you have my way.

Cheers..............Gilgamesh

i had smoked lots of hookas and from my experience its about the same. only good thing to do with a hooka is to mix hash with its flavored tobacco.
if u want cold smooth smoke go for an ice bong.

Cool...literally.

no its more than a joint worth a vaporizer will kick ur ass to the curb if u smoke the rite stuff and depend on the size of the bag ur using also

You can vape any type of weed you want. There really isnt a preferred weed for a vaporizer. At least, I've never heard of one. You can also vape hash, bubble hash (with a special screen) and/or kief. It all depends on what you want to intake. Happy Vapeing! Peace.

I've also seen glass bubble vapes such as "Eagle Bill`s Vaporizing Pipe"...are these any good or just a head shop gimmic pipe. I'll still be rolling but also looking to expand my consuption expereinces (as well as my mind )

'Rusland' coffeeshop, was the first place i ever tried a volcano vapouriser. the first time i tried a vapouriser at all in fact.

we saw someone using one, and our intrest promted the bar girl to offer us a go. she set it up for us, suggested how much to use, told us the temperature to use, and generallly was very helpfull. no deposit either. no awkward feelings on our part at all. that was an eye opener ha ha.

i would suggest trying that place. dont worry about asking how to use it, they are happy to help.

Thanks...really looking forward to giving it a try...
