subject: Hookah Shisha [print this page] Hookah also better known as shisha is a sort of pipe of water generally used in the countries like Middle East and also in Asia. Aside for tobacco smoking, hookah is also used to smoke fruity flavored delights. This interestingly triggers massive popularity of smoking in restaurants and cafes in major US cities.
Prior to going into hookah bar, it is important to understand first the tricks on how to hookah. This whole process of learning hookah certainly involves several steps. You need to ensure that the following are available: stem, base, tongs, tray, and a bow with grommetsl. So, to start the preparation, fill up the base with up to 1 inch water to cover the stem and make sure that it is moist. The shaft is now inserted inside the base so as to insure tightness. And then, put a bowl of grommet on the tray and placed them on top of the shaft.
In addition to that, you need the following things to properly set up you bowl: flavored tobacco, tongs, and metal bowl. Be reminded to break the tobacco in bits and pieces before placing them on the bowl to get the desired smooth smoke. Small holes are then poked into a tin foil with the help of a toothpick.
This is done incase you are not using the metal bowl screen. Take a piece of lighted charcoal and placed it on the bowl of metal screen or tin foil. A couple of some puffs will then complete your process of hookah smoking.
Keep in mind that your flavored tobacco must not get burned. Essentially, smoke is produced from the heating up of honey, glycerine, molasses, and tobacco. Once charcoal is not properly set-up, you will not get the best smoke results.
