seefoodlover Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 So I lit up the SB Blue Mist, and I was using some different coals (silver jap coals I threw on the bbq so i didn't have to use QL's) and the smoke was not very thick/no flavor. So I threw some more on and burned the bowl, so i tossed all the shisha, and then restarted with fresh everything, and even went back to the QL's, and it was still not right... I thought it was very strange, how I could switch back to my normal method of smoking and it still not working... Anyone else have this happen?

I'm feeling it's more of an environment factor for that. No matter what I did the night everything went bad, no process helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I would guess its acclimation related. Let it acclimate. It'll snap back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Maybe has something to do with the way you packed it.Also if you were smoking outside a windcover with that first round of coals woulda helped, depending on the humidity level outside.

Sonthert Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 If you stop smoking a brand of tobacco because it has acclimation issues, you'll have to give up smoking hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remy Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I wanna say it was the coals. A lotta people dont light the jap coals all the way. Or maybe its that they dont blow of the silver stuff? Either way those coals are bad news bears if you down blow that silver shit off. Bad. News. Bears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhineholt Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I actually had the same problem yesterday with Blue Mist too... Strange. Now I understand it.
