triggaman Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I just bought a Mya Acrylic (20 Inch) and I was just wondering how much water do you put in the base, up to where? For some reason I cannot get it to smoke like my larger hookah, in fact... I am not getting thick smoke at all for some reason. Granted, I have only tried it twice, but I tried once with a screen and once with foil, and I used a tiny earring to make the holes. But have you guys with the smaller acrylics gotten it to smoke just as well as say a larger egyptian hookah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erica Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 [img]http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n69/ooocharmsooo/IMG_0159.jpg[/img] So on the top there should be two empty ridges, and i fill it up right between the 2nd and 3rd ridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggaman Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 Wow... That is nice! So in between them as in the middle of the ridge between the two? Oh and how big is the acrylic you have? I always see you have thick smoke from your reviews and your O topic, that is crazy! I am trying to get mine like that, but i havent been getting thick smoke for some reason.

Anpu Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 She has the larger size acrylic if I remember correctly. From most of her pics, she's smoking out of her newer Mya small bohemian. The pipe does hit like a champ with almost no pull - clouds depend mostly on heat management, making sure there are no air leaks, and a lil on what type of tobaccy you're smoking. Starbuzz does smoke a lil better than most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 [img]http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n69/ooocharmsooo/redline.jpg[/img] There is a little red line... If you can see it, where i put the water.... Well, I de believe the one in the pic is the smaller acrylic, but its not the MINI one..... Most of my pictures are from my Mya Bo. =o) But Yea.... Coal might have something to do with it.. and the way you are packing your bowls... also... and air leaks, perhaps in your hose, or your bowls not on all the way, or your hose isnt in all the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggaman Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 Hey thanks for your help. I think I was putting way too much water in it. I usually smoke al amir, that stuff is really good. Blackberry, raspberry, pina colada, Strawberry, Kiwi, are just a few that I have. I am a big fan of them. Oh and one more thiny. The mya bowls that you get, you can put so much shisha in them, do you pack it all the way up to the top? Its so damn much, im use to the egyptian bowls where you can get top 15 grams in there.

I dont know though its really hard to manage the heat on starbuzz for some reason, next time im just going to try smaller holes so it doesnt burn as fast i guess. I just ordered some starbuzz lemon, have you tried that one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erica Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I do. but you dont have to.... It will just take a while for the bowl to actually heat up. A guy on here named Seandoo.. actually perfers his bowls to be 3/4 full rather then the way I pack it.. so Its personal prefernce... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz'd Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 where did you order that hookah from, and for how much if you don't mind my asking...i am looking to get one of the like 20 inchers, but sadly i live in Canada..and S&H is going to cost me almost as much as the hookah. good luck with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz'd Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 no probs...thats the site i order all my shisha from actually...i will probably buy the hookah from there in the end...i hate S&H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mo Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 the pipe should be submerged a couple of centimetres. if in doubt, suck on the hose connector (i.e. hose unplugged) and if it's bubbling fine then no probs. Careful you don't get any water in your lungs, as David Hasselhoff may not be around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggaman Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 Hahah, thanks. So I guess I just had too much water in the base then. I am gonna try starbuzz watermelon tonight, and I will let you guys know how it goes with a review, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
