Litters Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Just set it up, and man it was a pain, I realized that in order to get my coals lit I had to constantly move them on my stove... and i had no idea that the shisha was going to come in like... 3 wrappers and be sticky as shit lol... All and all im loving it so far... and I'am sure that as time passes ill get faster at the prep now that i know what to expect. So far blueberry is king...

Litters Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 Also I put some ice in the base to cool the smoke down a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grock Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 What type of stove are you using? Coil? And move your shisha to a tupperware container. It makes it a ton easier, plus then can just use a small fork to load a bowl instead of getting your hands dirty. Not to mention it helps keep it "fresh" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dizzbizz Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Haha nice! You might want to invest in a single coil burner. Its pretty much a portable elective stove. Its ten dollars at walgreens and is way quicker than gas stoves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm glad I'm not the only person that has roasted marshmallows over my coals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vendetta_revived Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 If I am not mistaken, I think there was a thread sometime back about roasting marshmallows on your hookah coals. Also, an electric coil burner is truly essential imo. Just makes life so much simpler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I have a picture somewhere of someone roasting a mini marshmallow on a toothpick over a cauldron of coals at my old place. Sound sliek you are going through the usual trial and error of hookah ownership. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Go to a thrift store, buy a cheap pot, drill a few hole sin the bottom, put the coals in the pot, put them on the gas burner. Of course made sure the pot isn't coated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
