Cleaning A Hookah Pipe 2011-11-29

I started smoking Hookah at hookah lounges, like most people. This was great at first, but after smoking for a while I started to want to be able to smoke a hookah pipe at my own house. I decided to buy my own hookah. After smoking my new hookah for the first time, I realized I had no idea what to do with the hookah pipe to keep it clean. I improvised, and it didn't turn out well for me. I lived in a particularly wet part of Oregon at the time, and I didn't clean my new hookah stem very well. I drained the water out of the base, and got the hookah tobacco out of the bowl. After that, I put my hookah back together and put it in the cupboard.

After a couple days, I got my hookah out, loaded it up, and had another session. After smoking for about 15 minutes, I started to feel light headed. That had happened before, so I thought I just needed to slow down. A couple minutes later, I stand up to get a drink. As I'm on my way to the kitchen, I'm overcome with a wave of nausea that almost left me retching over the sink.

I was much more thorough about cleaning my hookah. Now that I have a many years of hookah smoking experience, I've put together this guide to keep other new hookah smokers from my fate.

My housemates thought it was the tobacco in the shisha, but I wasn't convinced. I had never had a problem like this from hookah before, and I had smoked at quite a few hookah lounges before I decided to buy my first new hookah pipe. After my stomach had settled, I brought my hookah into the kitchen and examined it. Turns out, mold had started to grow in the bowl and hose (did I mention Oregon is a very wet place?). I can only guess bits of the mold got into the smoke and that's what made me sick.

After you finish smoking, take your hookah all the way apart. Separate the bowl from the stem, and throw the burned hookah tobacco away. Be careful, it might be hot. Take the charcoal off the stem, and then taking the stem off of the vase (sometimes they screw off, sometimes you can just pull it off). Then, separate the downstem (the part that goes into the water), and take the hookah hose off.
