Actually I've got a problem with my Shisha. It's a new one so I've only used it a few times. At first it worked perfect, but now I cant seem to get much smoke at all and it's very hard to get anything unless you inhale hard. There's also a noise which sounds like air and the water doesnt bubble much.

I thought maybe it could be the ball bearing. I'm not sure. Where exactly should the ball sit? Does it sit inside the screw-off valve or inside the pipe?
You might have a hole in the hose or somethings not screwed on tight and air is leaking. Make sure you're putting enough water also.

Btw, if you want nice thick smoke mix half milk with half water. It's amazing Just be sure to clean it afterwards.

try it, it's awesome. Smoke is nice and thick and it makes the hookah taste good. Make sure to use regular milk though, for some reason 2% doesn't work right.

Primary: mint, grape.

Mixes: mint-melon, mint-any kind of berry, mint-gum.

It's a waste of money to go to a hookah bar imo, unless you have at least 3-4 people who wanna split the bill.

+1. I'd much rather buy my own Shisha. You can do it anywhere

i personally don't smoke anything other than hookah, but my friends who have put weed in the hookah bowl said it was a crazy experience (I'm assuming you inhale a lot more smoke than if you just smoke a J or something).

Passion kiss, X on the beach, fuzzy naval, and blue mist all by Starbuzz are my favorite.

FYI, the whole milk thing has been tested and it's just a myth. On the contrary, heat distribution between the coals and the tobacco in the bowl is what makes thick smoke or not (of course there are other factors). Being the hookah fanatic I am, a trick I've learned over the past several years that i'll reveal to fellow m3posters....



Place a more concentrated amount of tobacco lining the sides of the bowl. then gently place an evenly spreaded amount in the middle (not to the top of the bowl). Remember not to over pack it. then with a needle (the smaller the holes in the foil the better), poke evenly spread holes on the sides (I do 1/4 inch apart) and then poke a more concentrated amount of holes in the middle. Place the lit coal in the center (where there should be more holes). This allows more heat to come into the bowl with a cooling breeze coming from the side holes. I have found this method to produce INSANE amounts of smoke. If I'm sitting two feet away from my friend and blow smoke at him, the smoke is so thick I can't see him.

Hope this helps!

Actually one session of smoking hookah (45 min), is equivalent to a pack of cigarettes. Thats a statistic done from a red cross research study.

And shisha doesnt have chemicals like rat poison in it

IMO starbuzz is completely overpriced. 250gr tins are going for like $20...

oh cool! didn't know that :P
I never sit down for only 45mins though.
You can get one here basically anywhere. (restaurants, coffee houses, etc...)
so whenever we hang out for extended periods of time, We sit down with one for a few hours and chill
