A bong is essential to making a good starter. The preferred method is to dissolve 200 grams of DME in one liter of water. Use a saucepan for this step. When the DME is completely dissolved, pour into a two liter flask or something similar other than the bong. Add some Foam Control to the flask to reduce the boilover potential. Use a lot of it too! Now, load the bong and hit it at least three times within about the time it takes to bring the wort to a boil in the flask. Continue boiling for 10-15 minutes. Cool the flask in a pan of water or a sink. Be careful not to float the flask or it can tip over. Once cooled to below 80 F, you can pitch the yeast. Cool it to the lower fermentation temp if using lager yeast. Clean up the stove top before the boiled over wort dries to an epoxy like condition where it is near impossible to remove without using oven cleaner or something similar. This must be done before SHE returns home! Otherwise, there will be hell to pay.

Nice bong. I have a EHLE.
On a slightly more serious note - hops and cannabis belong to the same family - "someone" here needs to add some to their next brew.
