We here at www.hookah-shisha.com have a lot of shisha. How much? Literally: tons. We have so much shisha that when we’re unloading shipments, our neighbors come over to investigate the appealing smell.

The answer to this question is ‘yes’ and ‘no.’ The general thought on this topic is that larger hookahs smoke better than smaller hookahs due to the longer shaft, which allows more time for the smoke to cool as it travels to the water, where it is filtered and further cooled.

Natural coals are the cleanest way to smoke shisha and will let the flavor of your shisha really shine. The easiest way to light these coals is on an electric stove with an exposed heating coil.

The most likely reason is that you have too much heat on your hookah bowl. Remove some charcoal and if it is still harsh then that means you burnt the tobacco and will have to re-pack a new bowl.
Some people will knock off all coal from their hookah bowl, then take the bowl off (but [...]

Generally, any non-carbonated beverage may be added to the water in a hookah base, or replace the water completely. We don’t recommend adding milk to the base, as this can cause the water to bubble into the hose. For more detailed information on water or other liquids in the base, check out the last few [...]

The most likely reason is your hookah is not air tight. It is vital for a hookah to have no air leaks or you are sucking in empty air. Double check the connections between the:
metal shaft / glass base
metal shaft / hose(s)
metal shaft / clay bowl
After you’ve checked to ensure your hookah is air tight, [...]
