norcalsmoker Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I really love the look of the KM Signature hookah. I already know the ice bucket isn't really anything special and doesn't really make a difference. However I still can't decide if I should get the ice bucket or not. Help me out guys!

delSol_si Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I've got a 34" KM ice, non-sig though. I like the ice bucket, I have to walk a bit to get to a smoking spot on campus, the ice bucket provides for good storage for extra coals if needed.

TizaNabi Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 An hour ago I was thinking about one of my Father's long time ago saying:"That is about as useless as teats on a boar hog". I am smoking now my favourite hookah which has a chiller at the top.I don't use the ice chamber since it melts quickly and even before it does, the effect is null & zilch.A number of times I smoked it with ice along side another hookah of mine & no difference whatsoever. Secondly even putting water in the chamber makes it top-heavy and could tip if your kitten nudges it ! Having bought it, the round ice chamber is quite feminine as someone pointed out the hookah is in general . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delSol_si Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Someone on the forums here not too long ago mixed dry ice and alcohol in the ice chamber and got good results...just don't do it too much or else it could fuck the hookah up.

fcbayern Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I dont care if the Ice bucket doesnt do anything... It just looks BAD ASS!!SIg Ice!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1024 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 the problem with the ice bucket is that it touches to little smoke...so it has to be extremely cold or it wont really effect it at all. I would try ice cubes made from salt water, or heck just freeze the ice chamber full of salt water.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnaby Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I have a Syrian Chiller, and I notice a difference when I use my ice bucket. The smoke is noticeably colder, and a bit more dense. Flavor is alittle more as well, but that is more subjective. It is by no means, a must have, but I like the option of it. The smoke is already completely non-harsh, so its not like there will be an improvement from the ice bucket there. I will have to try the salt water ice cube thing. While my ice does tend to last through a round of coals, it's mostly melted by then. Be interesting to have it last longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 The ice bucket is there to keep the smoke/stem from getting hot, not for cooling.When I smoke outside on hot days without ice, the smoke is very warm because the stem gets warm from being in the heat. When I use ice in the chamber, it HELPS keep the stem from getting incredibly warm = keeps the smoke from getting hot.It's there to prevent hot smoke/stem, not to make the smoke incredibly cold.I also love the ice chambers b/c yes, they look bad ass!
