Buying Your First Hookah Pipe

No Comments

A hookah is a water pipe that produces minimal tar and nicotine content. If you are thinking of buying your first hookah, here are some of the things you must consider first.

The most important thing to consider when buying a hookah is the quality. If you have friends who already have one, you can go try their hookahs out first to get a better grip on what you are looking for. It is recommended though, that you get a hookah with a vase – or hookah body – made of ceramic or Pyrex glass. Choose a tobacco bowl that is made of clay, metal, or ceramic. As for hookah stems, they should be made out of solid metal or stainless steel. Other hookah parts like the base and the hose come in a variety of sizes and styles, and you can choose whichever suits you best.

Some stores also sell bespoke hookahs and you can also order a specific part that you want. However, if you want to buy a ready-made hookah, remember to be particular about the materials used for the vase, bowl, and stem.

Another thing to consider when purchasing a hookah is the price. A small, single hosed hookah may be priced at around £25, while a medium sized hookah is priced at around £40 to £70. Prices for large hookahs range from £80 to £100, depending on the design, while bespoke hookahs can range between £150 and £700 depending on the options chosen.

Hookah Pipes and what they are used for

No Comments

A hookah is a type of water pipe used in herbal smoking. It consists of a vessel for holding water, through which the smoking material is filtered. A tube extending from the top of the vessel holds a small bowl containing a live coal, upon which the smoking material is placed. The tube extends down through the water. A separate mouthpiece connected to a flexible tube is attached to the side of the vessel. When the mouthpiece is inhaled, air pressure draws the smoke from the burning coal down through the water, filtering it.

Another term for hookah is shisha, which comes from Persia and means bottle or glass. Hookah pipes come in various styles, such as Syrian and Egyptian, the travelling hookah, mini and custom designed hookahs. A traditional hookah is made of blown glass and may be decorated with enamel or gold paint, silver, aluminium, brass, clay, porcelain, wood, carved stone, or leather. Some modern hookahs are made with materials such as stainless steel or plastic.

In some countries, smoking lounges and restaurants provide individually wrapped plastic mouthpieces for customers who want to smoke. There are also accessories for the hookah, such as metal tongs and special hookah charcoal that can burn for up to 30 minutes.

Certain etiquette applies when smoking a hookah. For example, the pipe must always be on the ground, not on a shelf or table. A hookah is not passed around; rather the mouthpiece is set down to allow other smokers to take a turn.

What is a Hookah Pipe? Its History, Design and Function

No Comments

A hookah pipe is a traditional device for smoking, which originated in India and is well-known as a water pipe, which gained popularity in the Middle East. It is operated through indirect heat and water-filtration. There are different names for the hookah including Shisha, Nargila and Waterpipe.

A hookah pipe has four fundamental parts which do not vary, such as the base/smoke chamber, which is partly filled with water; the bowl, which contains the heating apparatus and tobacco; the pipe, which connects the bowl into the base through a tube plunging into the water; and the hose, which connects to the pipe’s second tube and is not immersed into the water, but the smoke chamber air. The heating apparatus can use charcoal or an electric heater, and the hose may or may not be removable.

When the smoker breathes in through the tube of the hookah, the difference in pressure forces the air to pass the coal wherein it heats the tobacco giving off smoke. Then, the smoke coming from the tobacco is brought through the water into the smoke chamber air of the smoker. When the smoke passes through the water, it filters both nicotine and tar from the tobacco and also gives the smoke a cool, smooth feeling.
