Sounds cool Scott. You can start it and I will add. I have to practice today so I will be busy for a while. We should see if we can get Eric to add his bio and history from the man himself on his amazing product Tangiers!

I've been thinking about this for some time, and I'm wondering why we don't just make a wiki-hookah-webpage. I mean, there's a wiki for just about everything, and it ain't that hard to make one. With all the activity we got here we could have one up and running in no time.

Kinda like this tea-wiki I've jused a lot lately, WikiCha (now that I rarely smoke hookah I drink tea all the time, first flush of this Spring's darjeeling just came in ^^)

Go for it. I actually searched Tangiers in google hoping to spot a wiki entry but didn't see one. It can always be edited so theres nothing to lose.

Oh. One thing to add is the list of flavours and for flavours with weird names a very short decription of what they are. Edited by AzZ

Maybe with this WIKI setup, it will put an end to all of these questions mellow.gif

With a quick google I've spotted www.wikidot.com . I've created http://hookahforum.wikidot.com/ (just to be quick on registering it). I can either transfer it to you, Scott, or whichever mod, or delete it if you have a better solution.


If you know how to work the thing you can add all the stuff. biggrin.gif

I'll still try and contact Eric and get some info from him, hopefully we can turn this page into something for idea brainstorming.

I know how to work the site - I'm just really busy this week. I'll try to fill it out with information from the forum by this sunday. I need other people that are willing to edit it and help me though.

Hahah whoaaa there... is that a new Tangiers site? That place is creepy as hell. Perhaps a little psychedelic for hookah, no?


Hahah waaay psychedelic. That's the old site. The current one is www.tangiers.us Edited by mdl

the tingle in my experiences open happens for the first week when you aren't used to it. i personally believe for most people they should mix it with washed shisha for a week (a lot easier to pack as well). it really gets you used to the tobacco and you wont get that tingle

I made a guide real quick on how to pack tangiers with just pics, hopefully to help people

First step. Pick out your tobacco. (I got lazy and didn't label a bunch of them)



I took indigo flower. Ok, so now we have our bowl, our tobacco, and an oyster fork. This is a small phunnel



How grab the bowl and drag it through the tobacco till you have a hefty amount on top.



This is what I got after my dig



Now you take all that, and even it out, you dont have to push it all in, just take the oyster fork and try to make it as even as possible on top without digging any tobacco out. Here is a pic after a little forking.



Now take the fork, and drag from the center hole outwards with the flatter end. After done it will look like this



Here is a side view


and from above


Continued on the next page due to too many pictures Edited by Scoop

Then you take your foil, place it over the bowl, and slightly press down to see the stiffness of the tobacco, if you get the shape of the funnel really easily, you have underpacked it.



Now pull the foil sides out so it flattens out and foil it up.



I'm using 3/4 of an exotica stick



Now take a toothpick, and push all the way through the tobacco to the bowl itself. Wipe away any juice. Sorry for the blurry pic




I added some ice to the ice chamber for shits and giggles



Here is everything set up. Sorry for the blur again



At this point, get the charcoal. I took the 3/4 stick and dropped it (by accident lol). Normally I'd break into 3 pieces. It broke into 3 which is good enough for me.



Now personally, I let it sit for a few mins to warm the tobacco up. 3-4 mins. Here are some pics right after that when I started smoking




Smokes great, tastes great. Edited by Scoop
