ninjalover187 Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 Hello everyone, my name is Phillip. I recently purchased my first hookah. This forum has been a great help from somoking to cleaning my hookah. My first bowl was a huge success. I ordered Starbuzz but it hadnt arrived yet, so I went to my local hookah cafe and got 250g of of Nakhla (thats the only brand they had)and some coals. I got peach and must say I was impressed. I got this mya off ebay. The guy who sold it was a soilder and got it in Kuwait, it was never used. I got an amazing deal on it. This thing is immaculate. The chrome plated pieces are so heavy. I love it so much I have even quit smoking cigarettes. I have been reading about the phunnel bowls and would like to get one. I have a lebanese style stem adapter and I think I need the egyptian style, right? Will the small phunnel bowl fit that? Does anyone know where to get the stem adapter besides mya because they are 17 (10 for shipping) bucks on there which is crazy. Thanks a lot. My gf took this pic last night. Sorry I dont have any pants on haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

web250 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Good to hear you had success. Good call also on wanting a phunnel, they are excellent IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjalover187 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 Yes its a Mya came with the case too. I paid 55 including shipping. I ordered the 12 tubs of al waha from Steve. Do you all know if shisha has an expirtation date or goes stale? That order will last FOREVER. Is freezing it an option? Thanks a lot.

What a steal! I'm not sure exactly how long shisha will last. Quite a while. I would definately NOT freeze it as that will just screw up the moisture content. If you're extremely worried, take a page from the pipe tobacco manual and seal it up in a small Mason jar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I thought MYA was just a brand used in the US?And the tobacco supposedly has a date of two years after manufacturing for expiration... but steves stuff is 2 years old and smokes like new. DON"T FREEZE. Keep it room temperature in a sealed container. Rather, store all of it in the conditions in which you wish to smoke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjalover187 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 I'm not sure about Mya's only in the US but this is def a Mya.I smoked some al waha after nine on new years now everything is tasting like mint. Does anyone know the best way to get rid of aftertaste between flavours, or is washing the hose the only solution? I read to wash once a week and how to wash from mr bubble so i know how to do that well to reduce rusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skiracerj1 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Definately do not freeze it, or imo refrigerate it, because when you think about it, that will actually do more harm than good since refrerators work just like an air conditioner by removing moisture from the air, so you'd actually be drying your shisha out, Just always keep the lids on those puppies and they'll last a long time, also storing it in a cooler place of your house (basement maybe, or in more seasonable months the garage) will help. Btw that hookah is beautiful and you got quite the steal, your set for a long time man, a long long time. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostofdavid Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Mya sells outside the United States. I believe Scalli had a friend pick him up a hookah from Dubai in the UAE and it turned out to be a Mya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
