Coconut Milk > Milk In Base


Recommended Posts

Picked up some coconut milk and decided to add that to the base. I cant even begin to describe the HUGE difference it was from milk and/or water.

The smoke was so thick that you actually felt full when you inhaled. Literally after 3-4 pulls, we already had the room smoking. And the flavor? There is SUCH a creamy taste to the smoke that it was absolutley surreal.

We put some SB vanilla + strawberrry and added 1/2 the can to the base and the next hour we were in a smokey haze of euphoria. Hookah.gif

Has anyone else tried that combo??

ive never tried it but from what i heard coconut and soy milk dont bubble up. i dont see why they would either. never try milk in the base. ive had bad exp from that.



Really? I put milk in the base once in a while and I have never had problems... Maybe it depends on the hookah you use too?

I've used soy milk a few times... you can't use as much as you would milk, as it's thicker, it works fine though. I have a can of coconut milk in my fridge... I'll give this a go when I've recovered from this bloody tonsillitis.

Do you use all coconut milk, or do you dilute it with water?

I'll second that; tried coconut milk with the bit that I had left over after cooking about two weeks ago and it was one of the best smokes. And it doesn't bubble like regular milk so you don't have to worry about your (unwashable) hose dance.gif

You can find the the coconut milk at any ethnic section of a grociery store. And by ethnic i mean Asian/Chinese. Thats where i found mine. Dont get the organic coconut milk, because it solidifies and becomes a pain to mix.

The coconut milk didnt bubble nearly as much as milk did. I think its the fat content (creamyness) that really makes a difference. If you have ever tasted coconut milk, its so thick and creamy. Hence why we are thinking of adding some heavy whipping cream - but we were worried it would bubble up to much.

We used 3/4th of a can of coconult milk first, then poured water to top off. Mixed it in the base (just swashed it around a bit). We will be having another session probably on wednesday. I will take pics of before/after coconut milk.

Naw i get just normal Coconut milk. I think the fat content makes it smoke better, so i wouldnt use the FF kind, personally.

If your bubbling to much, that probably means you dont have enough water or to much coconut milk. The ONLY time mined bubbled up to much and started tickling the top of the stem, was when i used a FULL can of Cmilk.

BTW i used a KM w/ ice chamber and a funnel bowl w/ mod. But it smoked JUST AS AMAZING on my Mya but i used 1/2 can of Cmilk.

what brand/ do you get the fat free? because every time I use it it bubbles up really quick it. Do you use a diffuser?
