ahwahoo2006 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 First off, mods, I know this should go in how-to, but I wanted to show off a little. Also, thanks to Zildjan for reminding me about this in an earlier thread. I was inspired by the discussion a few weeks back on how to make smoke colder than just by adding ice to the base. Here is my idea. This is a two gallon bucket with a hole drilled through the side near the base and another by the top. 30 feet of coiled vinyl tubing is inside along the sides and secured with epoxy, which also seals the top and bottom holes. The short end attaches right to the hookah and you can smoke off the long end, no separate hose needed. The bucket is filled with ice and water, thus cooling the smoke after it leaves the hookah chamber. While I have no scientific data, everyone who smoked it (Spoolinspoon, Camelflage, Zildjan, and myself) all noticed a huge difference. Let me know what you think.Pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, my complaint would be that it makes the smoke too cold and gives it a sort of minty tingle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayVer Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 looks nice. Only negative thing I can say is it's real big. I'm sure you could make something that performs the same with a small container. Never the less its a good concept Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HookahDude831 Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 i prefer to smoke out of a hookah hose instead of a plastic one.. but maybe you could work that out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estariol Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 That's really awesome. When it gets really cold (as it would seem to in this) does the smoke become noticeably less/more dense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankzit Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Great Idea. It reminds me of wort chillers used in making beer(which is perfectly legal here in the good old USA). Check out some of these commercially available options-you might be able to adapt something.http://morebeer.com/search/102202Your's reminds me of an immersion cooler.

ahwahoo2006 Posted November 20, 2007 Author Share Posted November 20, 2007 Yeah I've been considering making one out of a jockey box, but I'm not sure if using a metal coil would affect the flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
