gigi Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Damn! How come my double apple never tastes as good as the one in the lounges. I use AF double apple, coconara coals, and a km hookah w/phunnel or vortex bowl. It just never tastes the same Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 You find the taste in your hookah to be fainter than the one in the lounge? or totally different? Does the lounge use AF Double apple? Btw AF also has a flavour named AF 2, which is supposed to be a better version of their double apple flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Shop around for a great DA flavor. Nakhla is the most popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoozle Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Pack it in an egyptian bowl, maybe if one came with your KM. What I do is pack it in the bowl until I start to feel a little restriction when I pull through just the bowl. Here's what you want to do if you have never done this before. Get a clean bowl and suck through the bottom of it to get a feel for how freely air flows through with no restriction. Now pack some tobacco in there and suck through the bottom again. If it feels the same as an empty bowl, add more tobacco. keep adding tobacco until you just start to feel the tobacco restrict the air flow. While doing all this, keep the tobacco about even with the rim of the bowl, when you are adding more tobacco, you are just packing it down tighter, not piling it up over the bowl. Foil and poke holes then give it one last test pull from the bottom of the bowl. If the air flow has become much more restricted, then some of the tobacco has gotten packed tight against the holes when you put the foil on or poked holes. No need to start over, just hold the bolw upside down in your fingers and hit your palms together to "pack " the tobacco away from the holes. This is hard to explain but kind of the same motion as packing a pack of cigarettes, just without actually hitting the bowl. Really, you just want to dislodge the tobacco from the holes in the bottom of the bowl. Caution: you might get a flake or two of tobacco in your mouth when you go through this process.

angekfire Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I can barely smoke double apple anymore. It was the first flavour I tried, and is the easiest thing to get locally here, so that is the only flavour I smoked for the first 2 years I owned a hookah. I just had way too much of it.

UltimateHookah Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I go through phases with double apple flavor. Sometimes I smoke it exclusively for weeks, then get sick of it and need more variety. However, I am always going back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
