nuschultz Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Do you use straight lemon juice concentrate? Or a fresh lemon? How much juice to water do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I use lemon juice on my hoses. I use the store brand concentrate, fill that puppy up is you can...leave room to run the juice back a forth a while..then run water through it. Repete if necessary.

nuschultz Posted May 9, 2006 Author Share Posted May 9, 2006 that covers the base and hoses. what about stem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainsmoke Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Try some tooth paste for the stem and for the base ! its the best thing. your hookah will be like a new one. just take a bit of tooth paste and clean it with a brush and water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmexx Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 I've tried the toothpaste thing, works like a charm. I find, though, it's good enough to have a good go at it with the brush. If you clean your shisha between every session, you won't have to clean it like a dog every month or whatever.Good luck,Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve07 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Just plain soap and water works good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanguineSolitude Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 i use vinegar and hot water in the hookah itself. takes almost all smoke flavor out and as long as you rinse it out well it smells fresh and clean and not at all like vinegar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve07 Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 thats why I always use just a little lemon juice in my hookah every time I smoke I think it helps clean up easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheeshabum Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 I've been using fake lemon juice for my hoses for at least two years. I wouldn't waste a good lemon on the hose if I can get those vitamins in me. And anyways, lemon has natural oils in it which have been used here in Israel for the hands more than two thousand years. How would the oil affect the hose I can't say. I'm going to try the toothpaste idea for the shaft.Sounds smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukasa Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I'm sorry Tangiers, you're right. I had a terrible sexual expierience with lemon juice once. I don't want to get into it, but hearts were broken, feelings were hurt, and in addition to that, my forbidden love had left me stinging in very personal places.

mushrat Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Lord: Aye...both uncalled for and rather immature. If you can't act like reasonable adult without using terms that are insulting to folks no matter what their orientation, im sure you can find a forum where such behavior is acceptable.
