not.plugged.in Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) being a new smoker ive been searching the internet for tips and tricks on hookahs. It seems like half the sites i go to say refrigerate your shisha and the others say keep it room temp. What is better for the flavour and the life of the shisha or is it more of personal preferance?

shisha fan Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 i`d say that you should keep it at the temperature of the room you are smoking in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayVer Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I think I've read around that putting it in the fridge sort of destroys the flavor. I know people that buy cigarettes in bulk put their cartons in the fridge but I don't think the same applies to shisha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASUSEAN1 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 no fridge, the air in the fridge is actually drier than room temperature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfer singe Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 (edited) I usually refrigerate mine just to be on the safe side. I usually use it fast enough that it probably wouldn't make a difference, but I haven't heard of refrigeration hurting the tobacco. It doesn't present any problems when smoking, at least none that I have found and I think that refrigeration is probably reccomended if you plan on keeping the shisha for a while.

not.plugged.in Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Is it still ok to refigerate the stuff if i haven't opened it?(it seems like the fridge is the only place i can leave things and find them when i need it, for instance my keys) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 hmm..i should try that with MY keys...anyway, the stuff is good for years just the way it is, so refridgeration really shouldnt be needed and it will take that much longer to accimate when you are ready to smoke it.My $.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molson Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 the thing with a fridge is (the way i see it) dry out your shisha. this is because cold air holds very little moiture (and the wetter the shisha the better) so with this i figure it would dry outpop question using the above info wheres the dryest place on earth?A: the south poll offcourse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DizzyGuy Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 One of my favorite quotes from Tangiers from way back...Don't store the shisha in the fridge unless you plan on smoking in the fridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruceybruce03 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 When i keep mine in the fridge it seems to stay fresher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jones Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 On drying out: don't people mostly keep their shisha in airtight containers? I personally don't keep my shisha in the fridge because it keeps plenty fresh on it's own, but if it's airtight, it won't dry out. Plus, honey/glycerin thickens in cold, so if you just mix your shisha really well and pop it in the fridge, the liquid should stay evenly mixed in the shisha.
