TheShishaDoctor Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Lately I've been on a binge of smoking AF/SB... wanting to try as many flavors as possible. Today, I had a craving for some good ol' Nakhla, which I used to smoke back in the day.I picked up a 250g Sweet Melon from a local shop. Just had a session with my roomies... went really well. I added half a teaspoon of glycerine, and it smoked well.If you add glycerine, how much would you normally add to a 250g Nakhla? I'm thinking I can safely add a bit more, but I don't want to put too much and ruin it.What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinamon Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 i usually add 3-4 teaspoons for each 250g depending on how dry it is when i open the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinite Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I usually put the Nakhla in a tupperware container, and cover the top with a layer of glycerin, then honey. Doesn't change the taste at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JByer323 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 You know, I rocked out some Nakhla with a phunnel and mod, and it was a blast, kinda brought me back to roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1v3th3ad Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 damn ya, I've been rocking Sweet Melon for the passed month or so and loving it...its not an overpowering flavor which is a +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShishaDoctor Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'm gonna try adding some more glycerine now... seems like I've got a bit of room to work with. Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve (don't wanna offend by accidentally giving less e's than required) suggested I mix with some AF juice, and adding some lemon juice. I've got a bowls worth of sweet melon with AF watermelon juice and a hint of lime Let's see how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like the new mixture of it though then it won't be bad for you ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinamon Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 ok thats it. im packing a bowl of nakhla sweet melon now.(damn you guys and this thread) lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanneff Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Honestly, the best way to add glycerine to Nakhla is to just add enough to make it as wet as say AF, but only do it for as much shisha as you're smoking right then. Adding glycerine to the entire thing at once is kind of wasteful unless you keep your shisha completely airtight because it will tend to dry out a bit again. The way to go really is just by feel, you can't go wrong. Mix it up with your fingers adding a little at a time and you'll know when it's right.

Johnny_D Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Dr.i add 38mls of supercook glycarin. and about 8mls of honey to nahklamix like hell, leave for 24hrs, mix like hell again. smoke!they honey removes any soap taste from the glycarin.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smoke eater Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I had Sweet Melon last night too! Smoked from an MYA bowl for a change. It was excellent. I didn't add any glycerin, had great clouds. So glad I got the kilo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheShishaDoctor Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 I mixed some sweet melon with a bit of AF watermelon juice and some lime juice as steeeeeve suggested... The verdict: smoked well. I'm gonna try with a bit more lime juice next time, but so far so good thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
