Ashishnk Posted March 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 Now, how do you smoke a shisha : Deeply, m'dears! It's the only way. It's a big piece of equipment, and drawing on it from the cheeks is just not going to make any impression. You've got to inhale. This is what we're doing tonight, for an hour or two, and maybe not again till next weekend, or the weekend after. Feel as guilty as you like, but enjoy it. Life's too short anyway. You might be wondering exactly what you're smoking. Needless to say, it's possible to put any smokable substance into a shisha pipe in your own home, but commercial establishments will only ever serve tobacco shishas. The tobacco is blended with molasses, glycerine and the extract of rose, grape, etc. The charcoal is not in direct contact with the tobacco; it is separated by a perforated metal foil (though some traditionalists dispense with this). The smoke is drawn through water, which cools it and even removes some of the water soluble nicotine. Having said that, it's still bad for you, but so is worrying! After maybe 15 to 20 minutes, the flavour will start to change. Often, the smoke becomes too hot. Then we simply use the coal tweezers (always provided!) to remove one of the charcoals. Or maybe the taste tends towards sooty or dirty. Then we'll pick up the charcoals (with the tweezers) and drop them into the metal coal tray to shake off the ash coating, before placing them back on top of the foil. A little later, maybe after half an hour, the coals will be exhausted. When that happens, we catch the waiter's eye and he comes by with a hopper of fresh burning charcoal. The shisha can be refreshed with new coals once or twice, before the smoking mixture is used up. When that happens, it's time to go home! I would recommend trying shisha in several cafes before deciding to buy your own. Small 'souvenir' shisha pipes are about as useful as a chocolate fireplace. Don't be tempted to buy anything that the cafes would be ashamed to present. And remember there's quite a lot of technique involved in preparing a shisha. My next hub might explain how to do it at home. But there's no hurry, is there? We're relaxing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 ^^ can't think of anymore It's pretty easy making a hookah at home. You just need to know how to do it or have someone who knows how to do it. But the feeling of making your own hookah and smoking it all night with friends is much better than smoking in a parlor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
