What happened to the whole forum rules thing? There's no reason to attack me just because I like it.

Could be the arab in me, but I'll stick to the stainless steel.

Do they charge tobacco taxes on it?

I like it. I buy tobacco for the quality, not for its marketing.

the liquid is where all the flavor is, so it's not burned off until the bowl's done. If you smoke for 20 minutes and take the coal off, then you'll notice that the tobacco is still damp. I think the extra moisture is there so that it stays fresher longer.

I bet if you used that tacky stuff they give you to hang up posters in dorms, it'll be just fine. Actually there's probably something better and much less noticeable like... glue... but I just figured I'd toss that out there  

When copper heats up it releases poisonous fumes... don't use that, and if you buy a stem made of it... I wouldn't recommend smoking it.

[quote name='Tangiers']Sent.  I tested various heights of phunnel, this worked the best, in my opinion...I don;t ever  have a problem with the foil thing, but some people pack bowls differently (that really is a misnomer...pack a bowl...quite the opposite, kinda like a blowjob).[/quote] Back in old London, prostitutes were called "Blows".... hence the Blow Job.Kind of off the topic, but you learn something new every day!

I found newspaper in my roommate's Al Waha! Talk about fudging the weight. What's this world coming to.

It's a scientific fact that liquid weighs more than solid, it would only be fair to say that it is 46% water if you separated all liquid from all solid and measured the mass. 46% of the WEIGHT is probable since each tiny piece of tobacco soaks up about it's mass worth of liquid, making it weigh more. I'd rather have more liquid, I feel like that saturates the tobacco more than a lot of the thick syrup, infusing it, in a way. Does that make sense?

ok, so this forum isn't affiliated with any company right?

Wait a second, shisha has liquid in it, obviously, whether it's molasses, honey, or glycerine. Any liquid contains water, so any liquid WILL evaporate. I highly doubt these people water their tobacco down just to cheat people into thinking it's 250 grams, and if they did then you'd be able to tell from the taste. In my experience, the taste is pretty damn good so they're doing something right. By saying you're not getting a full 250g of shisha because it evaporates is like saying you didn't get a full 16 oz. ice tea, because *shocked* part of it evaporates. I think it's awesome you did the test, but I think you left some points out.

really?? That's my favoriteeee!

Just for those of you who were asking for a beer flavor, a friend and I were messing around the other day and blowing smoke into a half empty beer bottle. It looked pretty cool, I smoked it out of the bottle and it tasted like beer. Carlsberg, to be exact.

so wait a sec, is this a tangiers forum?

you find 'em mush?

Sweet, thanks.

so how do I get this Tangiers stuff?

I honestly don't know why that would make a difference to you unless you lived within a 50 mile radius of me, which is highly unlikely.

i won't smoke it. it looks like coffee grounds.

what do you mix the soex with? Just to get a better smoke or for flavor too?

everybody keeps saying it takes time to get used to... why is that?

I hate fed ex. Last overnight package I sent ended up taking two weeks. GO UPS!

they probably have them on hookahhookah.com, and the prices they show you on there are retail. I get my stuff from a store though, so the wholesale prices have got to be lower if they're selling them for a dollar.
