jaker29902 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Hookah smoking is one of those things that no matter what you do, sometimes things can go wrong. An applicable metaphor that comes to mind is fishing, you can have the most awesome uber fishing rod and tackle ever (which is the equivilant of the Sultan hookah found at hookah-shish.com ) but your not going to catch any fish if they decide that they arent going to bite today.

bachdragon Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Take some of the juice from the bottom of the tobacco with your finger and put it on the tobacco in the bowl. This make it more juicy and better smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmonk7663 Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Probally alot of factors involved in this. Specific Tobacco batch, humidity in the air, how open your tastebuds are, cleanliness of setup, etc etc. I find that if I brush my teeth or use mouthwash, or if I take some of the Ginger like from a Sushi place and put it on your tongue to cleanse the pallet, that the flavor tastes better. Also, another thing it depends on VERY MUCH is heat. Sometimes, due to variances in individual coals, humidty, etc, the coal may burn at a higher or lower temperature. When they burn higher, the flavor will last for a shorter duration. Even though you may use 2 coals everytime, it doesn't always mean the same burn pattern. This has been my experience, hope it helps.Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Wind makes a huge impact. Smoking outside, the wind heats the coals and thus burns the tobacco more (and shrinks the coals in the process) leading to a shorter lasting bowl and shorter lasting coals as well.

Sonthert Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Stir tobacco well. Pack bowls consistently and lean towards fuller bowls. Emptier bowls have less material and smoke less time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
