Can The Hookah Diminish The Flavor


Recommended Posts

I would guess yes... If its a big chamber you may be getting stale smoke, or with an especially long hose you may get stale smoke. I would say purge more often, or start doing it if you arent at all.

Then again, I dont know what piece you have, so it may not be any of those

its some random hookah for istanbul. 28 bucks. i wanna get a new hookah but i wanna see if i win any money off of the h-s t-shirt contest. i know thats a long shot but i would rather wait than buy one and be like, shit i just got 300 bucks and i could have used that to get a hookah. the only flavors that i can slightly and i mean slightly taste is the anise flavor from the mixed fruit AF and this mint stuff that was disgusting from a brand called global. other than that i couldnt even taste AF apricot or plum

It sure can. A dirty hookah (or hose) can diminish a flavor. If you dont clean your hookah often over time it will develop a sort of gunk from the shisha fluids flowing down the stem. That combined with the smoke exposure to your chamber can cause your recent sessions to have a non desirable taste.

For example smoke AF mint from your hookah a few times and never wash it. Then load up something completly different like peach flavor. It will not be the same as smoking peach from a clean hookah.

Every time i finish with my hookah for the day/night, I brush it through with soap and water, rinse with a lemon juice/water mix, and then rinse with water. This keeps the hookah very clean and smelling fresh. Never have I had any problems with a bad smoke caused by a dirty hookah since this routine was started.

Very much so.

Make it a habit to clean your Argeeleh every other time you smoke.


i clean it thoroughly every single time


I would clean it after everytime too, but, when we smoke, there are always 2-3 Hookahs going around between 5 people...its a hassle [sp] cleaning 3 hookahs after every session.
