Sir Pluto Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Well i have not smoked out of my large three hose hookah for the past few months. I went to go smoke it the other day and the hose taste like ****. Tried using a vacuum to no avail. They are washable hoses though. I just didn't know if i could wash it out with something to hopefully make it taste better. They are very expensive hoses so i don't want to throw them out.

mathuv Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 lemon juice + baking soda works pretty well imo and doesnt leave much of a smell/taste. beer works well and so does some cheap booze. try using that formula 420 people speak about too. just dont put anything in there that isnt safe to consume/breathe in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manic007 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I'd washing it with lemon THEN baking soda, not both at the same time. The lemon helps dissolve/reacts with alkaline based impurities, and the baking soda acidic impurities. Well technically that isn't 100% true, since oil dissolves in strong bleach, it's to do with the relative pH levels. But its a good rule of thumb. i generally find that lemon/vinegar is more important for cleaning hookahs. However, if you mix lemon with baking soda, you reduce the effect of both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
