barrenwizard Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I feel giddy and super light headed. Plus lazy once I smoke few puffs of my Hookah (Nakhla Mixfruit). WHY?Is this thing normal from what I've stated above? WHY?Do I have to wash my hose with water after every session or just blew it out? HOW?

SafeSearchOff Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 this is whats called a buzz.its from the nicotine going into your system. don't stand up too quick, because what goes up, must come down.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny_D Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 AlsoEnsure you drink plenty during a session and maybe some light snacks?After your session was out the tobacco bowl, and hookah. However Just blow hard through your hose to clean it.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryet Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Nakhla delivers a pretty strong buzz. And yes, it is normal. You can go with "washed" (less nicotine) brands like Al Fakher and you'll get less lightheadedness.And only wash your hose with water if it is washable, i.e., no leather or metallic parts that can rust. Run wather through it, give it a shake, repeat, and dry it before smoking again. You can do this once a week or if you want to switch between strong flavors (cappuccino and fruit). If you're smoking the same tobacco, just blow hard through it after every session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrenwizard Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 I've Al-Fakher and it does give me less Buzz compare to Nakhla. Hate that feeling, always gives me the feeling to end the session quick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomhauer Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 (edited) yes what was said is true, it is the purest form of carbon you can get ONLY IF it is all natural coals. none of the kingsford crap. you go get something which is just the wood burned and not something which is processed. there is a difference between "BBQ Coals" and "BBQ Coals". so use lump charcoaldont use use http://www.humphrey-charcoal.com/lump.bmp Edited August 15, 2007 by boomhauer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrenwizard Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Guys, guys, guys... Relax... Maybe in Malaysia... Our BBQ Coals are the one sold in 6KG or things like that. Those wooden coals. Its ashes are white. And it has a wood smell to it once its burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny_D Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 I'd still be carefull. BBQ coals allmost allways contain funky shit that you don't want to be smoking.It's your funeral.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrenwizard Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hmmmm, so what's my other choice? Specially made coals for hookahs?Anyway, I will post a pic here for you guys to check it out and see whether its a LEGIT coals that I'm using or not.

barrenwizard Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 SURE SURE!! Man, hookah is so risky... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 (edited) what kind of BBQ coals are you using? BBQ coals over here in the West arent nearly as close to what we think are BBQ coals in the East. My bet is that barren is actually using natural coals, and its the standard for BBQing in Malaysia (sp?).to be safe, post a pic, and possibly, the packaging (with translation of any important notes on it).edit: also, how do you start the coals? in the US it takes massive amts. of lighter fluid to start up coals, and it doesnt seem like your doing that, so it seems to get safer by the minute...

web250_is_mad Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Unless you are 100% sure they are 100% natural, I would go get some coals that are meant for hookah smoking.And as for the buzz, Nakhla is notorious for that. Try an unwashed brand like Al Fakher, Havana, or Al Amir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomhauer Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 he has smoked it and hasnt died yet so im fairly sure its not the bbq coals we are thinking of. i posted visuals of which of them are bad and which are fine so you should be able to figure it out easily. by his description of how it ashed and how it smells im almost 100% certain he is using bulk coal which is natural which is perfectly safe to use on a hookah.
