Lucy Ford Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 So i finally but an order in on hookah-shisha. some discount shisha, a couple discount bowls, grommets, nammor hose(very excited) and some random shisha i've been wanting to try. oh and my first batch of tangiers. I read some great reviews on marashcino cherry so i got that. i always hear people talk about how amazing tang is and also that you need to know how to do it right and acclimate it(what?) so now that i am about to have my tangiers cherry popped i was wondering what the advice is on tang. acclimation, packing, not fucking it up, etc. thaaaanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1v3th3ad Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 you're from Pittsburgh, so you pretty much don't need to acclimate lol...I rarely acclimate my tangiers and I'm in Indiana PA right now, but from the South Hills of Pittsburgh... just spread it out on foil and leave it exposed for an hour or two, should be fine after that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryno Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Also, low heat! I like to use Japanese coals like Fumari, Golden Canary or Easylites. If not, Exoticas are good too. Long wide shallow containers are the best to acclimate and store Tangiers in. Make sure they have a number 5 on them (polypropylene) so they dont absorb some of the plastic.

I remember Eric saying that the shisha can pick up a plastic like flavor in other numbered ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
