I usualy put a good ammount of baking soda in the base, then pour some lemon juice on it. It'll bubble and fuzz up, put your hand over it really quick (keeps the gas created inside of it) and shake it. Let out gas as you need to (it will get out when it wants). I do the same (basicaly) with the stem. Then I run the brush through... Of course after all of this a good rinse with hot water and we're done! Good and clean... No soap residue or cleaner taste or smell... Just a bit of lemon if you don't rinse it good enough. I clean my hookah after every smoke, but I use a mix of lemon and baking soda.

It's like cooking food, if you leave the mess out it will be twice as hard to clean later. I first wash out the bowl to cleanse of any molasses or leftover shisha. I then dump the water out of the bowl and pour hot water through it. I have learned through past lesson that you can stain the inside of your bowl and leave a ring like one you would see on your disgusting friends toilet. The molasses that goes down the stem mixes with the water and changes the color. Not only does immediately washing it keep your hookahs bling it also prevents the bowl from having a past shisha smell which gives longevity to more pure smoking sessions. Finally I move to the stem. Great thing is when you buy any hookah here they give you everything you need, including the cleaning brushes. Use the long skinny one and hot water to loosen unwanted mollases that drips down. You will tell the difference after a good cleaning and keeping up on it will please you and your friends. The thickness of the smoke and the taste matter the most to me. And cleaning it frequently ensure both. I found it best to clean my hookah after every use. It’s like cooking food, if you leave the mess out it will be twice as hard to clean later.
