TomBrone Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hello all,the moment I get an email back from thehookah I will order my KM hookah. I was wondering, if I smoke an AF fruit flavored tobacco, will I get better taste if I fill the vase with orange juice?Thanks,Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it will also make clean up that much more fun.. people have experimented with a lot of liquids in the bases from soda, to tea, to juice, to wine and hard liquor. Hell, i have an employee that puts stout in the base when smoking sb irish cream and a raspberry lambic when smoking raspberry or a berry flavour. Personally, i prefer to DRINK my booze and SMoke my shisha but to each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I would recommend using the no-pulp variety for cleanup's sake.Regarding stout - Ridiculously good with a coffee flavour, though I've only tried this after hosting parties, and putting wounded soldiers to good use.

mushrat Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 heh..make sure you mix them half and half with water or they will bubble up soemthign frierce..soemthing i discovered the hard way...what a fucking mess that was.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapten Kanel Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Try some Al Fakher Strawberry with milk and alot of strawberry icecream in the vase, really nice flavour, the downside is that all teh bubbling in the vase makes the icecream expand and go fluffy xD Real mess to clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modisess Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I've never noticed any difference when i put different liquids in the base... although there was one time that i put cola in the base and i could actually feel the fizz on the back on my throat...

gaia.plateau Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I'm not sure what causes a base filter to bubble... sometimes I'll do 100% fruit juice and be fine, other times I'll drop in a pinch of crystal light and it will bubble like crazy. Maybe it has something to do with the tides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doubon Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Blend up some watermelon and water and strain it + Fusion Cactus Pear...it may seem like more trouble than its worth but this blend is amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're mighty expensive and have been aging for a year or more - why do the disservice of emptying the bottle into a hookah.Some beverages maybe - but a lambic - never.

rigor Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I'm occasionally playing around with different liquids in the base, and I'm still undecided if it makes much of a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) I'm currently smoking AF grape with a layer of Nahkla sweet melon on the bottom to help airflow (KM Tri-Metal, Nammor, Bambino Bowl), in the base I have about 2 cups of red wine, 1/2 a cup of watermelon-blueberry Fruitopia, 1 cup of grape jell-o and about 10 large ice cubes with a bit of tap water to fill it up... it's delicious, and the base is making a tremendous difference (and no bubbling whatsoever).If you haven't in the past been able to tell if base flavour changes smoke flavour (it might just be that you don't have a particularly keen sense of smell), try filling your base entirely with cheap red wine (do it with a mini-hookah if you don't want to waste like 8 cups of it).
