Bondal929 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I was wondering whether you guys had any methods for bringing shisha back to life after it has dried out. I have read about adding honey to it something like that? what do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukasa Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I don't really know, in my expierience, adding honey just boosts the smoking temperature by a LOT, and after it gets smoking, it isnt much better than just smoking it dry. If its REALLY dry, and you have the money and means to get new shisha, just get new shisha. If you need to revive a dry batch add a TINY bit of honey, or better yet, buy some natural molasses from a store and use a little of that and work it into your shisha.

djnick Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 sometimes you can drain the syrup from another shisha and mix it into whatever is dry. i know it might change the flavor or what not but it works. for example i left my nakhla out a few days and forgot to pack it back up it went way dry. i drained the syrup from my alfalker mellon, and mixed it with the dry shisha and brought it back to life a little. havent smoked it yet though so cant comment on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanguineSolitude Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 buy new. you could spend money on honey or molasses and have half assed maassel to smoke for a while. why bother? just buy some fresh and save yourself the time and dissapointment.

DownZero Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Yeah, I would go with just buying new shisha. No need to go through the hassle of trying to bring dry shisha back to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonthert Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Buy new...I'm not just saying that because I manufacture tobacco, either. Glycerine, that is sold in drug stores is not anhydrous, so there is no way to remoisturize the stuff...honey doesn't work too well...it just makes it LOOK wet, but doesn;t increase the smoke. Well made tobacco shouldn't dry out, by the way...try stirring it up, see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bondal929 Posted May 13, 2006 Author Share Posted May 13, 2006 Alright, It's not that serious an issue for me. I just thought it would be cool to be able to bring it back to life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHISHA____ Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 try smoking it dry, i found an old nakhla orange and found it pretty flavorfull, it got harsh after 25 minutes but was still pretty decent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
