Haz Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Depends on how good I want the session to be. Some friend I know spend a minimum of 30 - 45 mins to setup the hookah, from cleaning it to packing the bowl to smoking it. I can do fast setup in a couple of mins but I like to take my time. The anticipation makes the session even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkel! Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I wasn't sure if sorting the stems out before acclimating counted. I usually let the shisha acclimate 8 hours before partaking. Actually packing the bowl, foiling it and poking holes in the foil takes around 5-10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stryet Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 I ususally spend more time waitng for my Jap coals to light than packing the bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wine to let breathe, but I scrub my hookah out before every session instead of after like I'm supposed to >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatthewLee Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 It's a mellow procees for me, not a rush. I went with 15-20 easily...maybe more.Between setting up my hookah, lighting the coals, letting my molasses breathe, packing bowl & fun with foil time. I 'ALWAYS' clean mine before I put away, so I save a little time on assembly. It also cuts down on odors in the hookah itself & the case.Worst part, it's kind of a buzz kill to have to do chores after a relaxing session.

hookah hippie Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Whoops thought it was just packing a bowl not full assembly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I like to take my time (5-10 minutes). Last night I was smoking with my brother, and I took special care to do it just right and we ended up with a 1 hour and 45 minute session. Could of been longer, though, I stopped paying attention to the time for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racemyghost Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 One thing i hate is being rushed while im setting up. If we have several hookahs and my friends set their hookahs up, they usually start smoking before i start packing. I have a major OCD with setting up. Everything has to be clean and dry. Water has to be at the exact level (not a cenitmeter over), no pieces of tobacco leaf on the rim of bowl or on the mod, dont get me started on the whole foil/hole situation. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilbrownindian Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 oo I thought it was just the bowl when I voted, I usually take about 20 minutes or so to do the whole process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leadpipecinch21 Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 depends on the smoke i'm going for. if i'm just chilling with a couple friends and we're just killing some time, not really looking for a great smoke it'll take one or two minutes. If i'm by myself, or i'm with a friend that is also really in shisha i'll take a good 10 minutes to unroll all the tobacco, make it nice, get everything set up perfect, and have a great session.

Purp0se Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I can get it done good in about 4-5 minutes. If I want to clean it out and such, it'll take me 10-15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wpw36 Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 i clean mine usually after so i just go right into set up when i want to smoke but packing the bowl and foiling using takes me 2-3 minutes and that is with adding glycerin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
