Rajun274 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hello people! I smoke my hookah quite often, but for the past several weeks, my smoking sessions haven't been going well. In the beginning, the flavor's amazing and it tastes/smells great. but 1/2 way through the first coal, the flavor dies down substantially. there's still a taste of whatever flavor tobacco, but it's much lighter than at the beginning of the smoking session. And if I check the bowl during this time, the tobacco on the bottom of the bowl will still have its color.I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

jerjer72 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 What kind of coals are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmpitags2006 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 What kind of coals are you using? Also do you mix up the shisha really well? I find that if I don't mix it up good than the flavor isn't really strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McDarragh Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Also what coal placement are you using? Putting coals around the edges and working your way in as the session continues greatly enhances both length of smoking time and flavour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rajun274 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 i use 3K quicklight coals. I dont break it; I put it around the edges.i spend a good amount of time breaking up the tobacco into individual pieces and putting it into the bowl.
