sss8789 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I was watching Good Eats and he made a thick pomegranate syrup, it was like molasses, and I was wandering if you could use that to make shisha (including glycerin)... good idea or bad?

jezter6 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Let me also add that Alton Brown is an idiot, and his writers are idiots.They did an episode on homebrewing beer - and got it ALL wrong. terminology - procedures - it was a TRAIN WRECK watching it.I no longer trust that show.

momatik Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Woah Woah woah. OK Maybe they messed up that episode, an episode which I haven't even seen, but Alton Brown is a beast regardless. Dude is an innovator, a monster, and the only person I really enjoy watching on Food Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fifthmanstanding Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 My friend snagged some peppermint chocolate syrup from starbuck's that they use in lattes. Mixed with tangiers maraschino cherry was wonderful. Very rich chocolate undertones. Burned off quickly though. So we mixed a small batch with a tiny amount of glycerin to thicken it and it smoked much longer and much stronger. So maybe your idea's worth a try.
