In order to enjoy the pleasure of smoking a hookah, it is necessary to properly prepare it and also take good care of it. To do this, it is enough to follow a few principles.
How to choose and prepare a hookah
Smoking a hookah is a ritual that has specific rules. The basis is the question of how to choose a hookah. First of all, it depends on how often and where you will use the water pipe. For frequent use, those that can withstand the daily load without problems are intended. It is also necessary to think that the greater the frequency of smoking, the more often you will have to clean.
- And we come to the question of how to clean a hookah.
- It's nothing complicated at all.
- The hookah body is cleaned with a special thin brush from the beginning of the water pipe to its end.
- Then rinse the water pipe with clean water and let it dry.
- Finally, we check the valve, loosen it, remove the ball and clean the opening with a thin wire.
But we will go back to the very beginning, when it is necessary to know how to properly prepare a hookah so that we get the real pleasure from it.
Hookah preparation
There are a few simple steps required to get a hookah up and running, which will be followed in the exact order given.
- The glass base is filled with water so that the end of the tube is immersed in the water after the base is connected to the body.
- Then we assemble the hookah by slowly twisting the body into the base as low as possible. The shorter end of the hose is inserted into the side opening on the water pipe body.
- We will prepare a hookah bowl, tobacco, aluminum foil (hms) and a toothpick.
- Crush the tobacco into the hookah bowl approx. 3 mm below the upper edge of the hookah bowl.
- Wrap the hookah bowl with tobacco in aluminum foil. (if we don't have hms)
- Press the foil onto the hookah bowl and pierce with a toothpick (35 holes). (if we don't have hms)
- Place the hookah bowl with tobacco on the seal with a twisting motion.
At this moment, the final stage is coming, thanks to which we are getting closer to enjoying the pleasant aroma of quality tobacco. And that - how to light a hookah. Heat the coals (in the fire pit or on the stove) and put them on the foil (or in the hms) with tongs.
