Dr.Claw1355 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Okay so I recently upgraded my one hose to a three hose hookah. With my one hose I had the normal ball bearing stopper on the opposite side of the hose, so I could blow into the hose to let some smoke out and get a better hit. Now with my new one I have the bearings in all three hoses and I can no longer blow in and taking a hit take a little more effort. Do I need all of the balls in when I smoke? Also how long does it normally take to get the hookah working correctly about? It takes me awhile every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 If you take the bearings out, everyone will have to keep their hoses plugged while not smoking. Other than that, it's business as usual. And your hookah set up will get easier with a little practice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claytronmeans Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I would take one of the bearings out, and make a mark by that hose port so that you remember which one it is. When smoking alone, you can purge it; but when smoking with others, whoever is using it would need to plug the tip while others are smoking.

So you can still "purge" the hookah. And it shouldn't take long for the smoke to start.most tobaccos take about 3-5 minutes. Maybe your not packing or heating the bowl right?

Bawhee Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I wouldnt describe smoking hookah as taking a hit. Just sayin... On topic, check that all the bearings are working right and then if they are, do what the posts above tell you to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure you put the annoying hookah mooch on the non-ball bearing one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
