Smoking Starbuzz

[ikellen]

Just joined the forum after lurking for a while.  It's really cool to find people so into hookah as much as I am.  Anyways, I broke down and ordered some starbuzz.  I remember reading here that are some special steps to take to ensure a good session with it, but can't remember them.  Any tips for getting the best results?

From my little experience with a Starbuzz sample that Mush sent me a while back, Starbuzz needed very little attention to my knowledge... But I could be wrong, and the stuff may have chanced a bit since I tried it last.Starbuzz seemed like a very good tobacco for hookah newbies, in that you could give it a lot of heat, and it wouldn't burn, sort of newbie proof. A lot of people have troubles with burning the bowl if they use too much heat, so Starbuzz was optimal for these people.Not sure if you just got your brands mixed up, but Tangiers is the great tobacco that requires some tweeking to get going correctly, with the acclimation process of setting it out in the open air for a couple hours to adjust its humidity with the humidity of your area, and the way you pack it in the bowl/coal use.So I don't think you should have anything to worry about with your Starbuzz. It should work well with however you set it up.

tell us how it works out. ive never tried starbuzz and the reviews ive
read, while usually good, havent been good enough to convince me to pay
double what i would for something i know to be good like tangiers or
havana. i would like to try it someday though.
