Alright, one more question, If a hose is "unwashable", how would you go about cleaning it. While I was smoking last night i kept getting little bits of crap in my mouth, I'm assuming its from the hose itself and not something making it through the water and up into the hose. This is a new hookah that i've only smoked out of maybe 3 times. Do i clean it every time or just every few times. And would the brand of shisha i'm using make any difference? I smoked three bowls last night between naklha and el basha.

blow through the hose before and after you smoke with it, blow kind of hard. that should help the problem. if it still does that after some blowing then you'll have to replace your hose or deal with the bits coming in your mouth.

damn, that sucks, cuz i literally bought this hookah last tuesday, i can't believe its rusting already.


Have you been washing it with water?


No, I got it and went and smoked two bowls out of it, then put it back in its box, pulled it out last night and started smoking again, and towards the end of the third bowl i started getting stuff coming through the hose. I wasn't sure what the hell it was, i just blew threw it a few times and couldn't get anything to come out, so i dont know what it is, i'm prly just gonna play it safe and buy a new hose i guess, unless anybody has any other ideas. My only other thought is that somehow stuff is getting through the water and up to the hose. and btw, i only fill the vase about a 1/4 of an inch above the stem, so i i dont think water is coming up from the vase.(I had that problem with my mini hookah once)

I never understood why its half an inch. Whats the big deal if its 2 inches? I know that if its too full you'll start pulling water through the hose. But some bases are large enough to not have to worry about only being half an inch.

how to "clean" non-washable hoses:

blow out thoroughly after the session. grab the mouthpiece and end piece in one hand and knock the shit out of it against the wall or floor. blow out again thoroughly. when done, hand it through /around something (like a doorknob or in the closet where you hang your clothes) so that the open ends are facing the floor and any crap can fall out

done.
