Hookah, as a fashionable smoking device, is now gaining more and more popularity. If you want to buy a hookah for your home or as a gift, then you need to take into account a number of nuances.
Instructions
Step 1
There is an opinion that the height of the hookah affects the quality of smoking. long items cool the smoke better. Long hookah is also believed to have an effect on cravings and cleans up smoke better. But it really doesn't matter which hookah you use, small or long. The difference in smoking is likely to depend on the quality of the parts from which the smoking appliance is made.
Step 2
One of the most basic parts of a hookah to look out for is the shaft. Consider what material the mine is made of. Steel shafts are considered the best as they will not rust over time. Copper mines must necessarily have a protective coating, otherwise the device will be difficult to maintain. It is also necessary to take into account the inner diameter of the shaft: the wider the diameter, the easier it will be to smoke. The ideal hole diameter should be 12-15 mm.
Step 3
If you are faced with which hookah is better to choose, then do not forget about the bowl in which the tobacco is put. The bowl can be made of metal, clay or ceramic. Keep in mind that ceramic bowls heat up faster, so choose bowls made from clay. In addition, the bowl should not have cracks, violations of the top layer and various chips. Don't forget to check if the bowl is even or not. To do this, place the bowl on any surface: the edges of a quality hookah bowl fit perfectly to the surface.
Step 4
When choosing a hookah, pay attention to the flask. Buy hookahs with crystal or quartz bowls. Keep in mind: the more the weight of the hookah bulb, the better. Plastic flasks are no stronger than glass flasks. In metal flasks, the water level will not be visible to you.
Step 5
In the next step, pay attention to the hookah hose. Be aware that hookah smokes better through wide hoses. The inside diameter of the hose and shaft must be equally wide. The mouthpiece at the very end of the hose is made of stone, wood, plastic, amber, etc. The strongest and most durable mouthpieces are oak, birch or beech.
Step 6
In a set with a hookah, purchase a special cap that allows you to avoid heat loss. The hookah must include a plate under the bowl. Thanks to such a bowl, the charcoal will not spill onto the floor, but will gently fall onto the plate.
