rhineholt Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 QUOTE (FSUReligionMan @ Dec 7 2009, 11:51 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Whats the point of a diffuser?It makes the hookah quieter. That's the only difference according to most people.Some say it enhances the flavor and gives the smoke more time to cool because it makes the bubbles smaller, but eh. Not really.

inino Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I just take an onion bag or garlic bag, wash it, and rubber band it to the bottom of the stem. rarely use it though, i like big loud hookahs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Diffusers are great when you're watching a movie or show and you don't want to hear the bubbling. Or if you're smokin' hookah on the sly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Caterpillar Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 It also breaks up the bubbles so that the water will better filter out the impurities/toxins.Not to mention increasing the surface area of the bubbles so that they cool more quickly. Personally, I won't smoke without one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunkies! Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Ive smoked with a diffuser a couple times and the only difference it made for me was it wasn't as loud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antouwan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 it smooths out the draw. i had a hafa in a boho vase and the draw was really uneven, if that makes sense. the level the water was at and the surface area. . .it just jumped around too much. it 'skipped' i don't really know how else to put it. the diffuser solved that problem.

bradleyclark86 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I have the heba from h-s.com and I've noticed smoother smoke. It definitely filters as advertised. I've noticed that the water in my vase changes color much more quickly due to the filtering. I could post before and after pics if anyone is interested. I took a metal screen and turned it into a diffuser for my Witch hookah and now the quality of the tiny one matches my XXL MZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vcs Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I bought a diffuser from my local smoke shop for my al fakher 30-inch (looks just like a heba) and i noticed that its smoother,quieter and tastes better.
