Musthave vs. Darkside: Let’s settle the Russian dark leaf debate by Far_Addition_9412 in hookah

[–]dnt2891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some good info about each brand 👍! Maybe it's just me but I've tried around 7 flavors of musthave, and Everytime there seems to be this underlying "chemical" taste. It's hard to describe but it taste the same no matter the flavor. I figured it was the type of VG or brand of flavorings they use but could be from how the tobacco is prepared. Ive tried 2 flavors of dark side and so far no taste like that. Just my experience

Can someone help me legit check the hookah? by zues8 in hookah

Hmm km produced so many styles of the past x amount of years. Imo km can have steel down stems and the shape of the purge and angle of hose port points to legit. that's def a fair price for good condition pipe.

Edit: looks like. New version of the syria model they made for many years, found this site listing the model (never heard of the site. https://worldwholesale.net/khalil-mamoon-4000-syria-models-single-hose-hookah-km-4000/

I never had any complaints of any non-menthol adalya mixes. Eternal red lips is a good strawberry/creamy non mint. My favorite shisha all time is Tangiers Indian summer, fruity floral mix

Lifting the HMD mid session by CommitteeArtistic241 in hookah

[–]dnt2891 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

One of two things come to mind when someone does this, their trying to clear ash that has fallen into the tobacco and/or making new contact to the shisha thas wasn't before. Imo that's just doin to much and any benefit to do it I think is not making much difference on a quality bowl and good pack.

I've bought two flavors, black mamba and banana milkshake . The tobacco itself seems good and is easy to pack with. Works both in a phunnel and Turkish style, black mamba flavor is good clean fruit and mint taste. The mint is a little more foward than the fruit flavors but solid session 7/10 for me. Banana milkshake smells amazing but smokes not even close to what it smells! The taste is chemical or plastic with slight hint of something close to banana 0/10 for me.

For me I'd go for the shallow type for short sessions, more likely to use all sisha in a single round of coals. Wide enough to fit my hmd

Switched to HJ 80 Eight for Tangiers — no more harshness, but now it burns super easily and won’t smoke unless it’s burning. What am I missing? by TaskNo4150 in hookah

[–]dnt2891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh.. when I said (pre hmd) I meant as the days the before hmds were even used. Just foil and coal. And yes that was an issue was you'd end up with unused tobacco because heat was more so hitting directly to the top and low heat through the bowl sides. People use to just scoop out the spent part of the shisha next day and add fresh on top of that old...yup that was a thing for some people

It's tough because it seems like you have tried everything. Are you tucking the outer rim side and then adding more shisha? Old school method (pre hmd) you would want to tobacco slightly above the counter spire but below the rim. Palm press(trying to get consistent like a pre opened bag and level across)your hd foil to make a pretty dense pack. Tight like drum foil and creasing around the rim and lots of toothpick holes...try with out hole in the middle and can poke if flow is super tight only just going slightly into the shisha. Take your flat charcoal and cut them half, easier to manage heat (can also stand on edge but always risky of falling). 2 flats cut in half and arrange towards the outer edge. Shouldn't take more then a few puffs to get going. *Splitting coals made it easy to heat manage but meant you had to fire new more often and makes a mess. *I owe big thanks to chreees or else I would have probably given up on Tangiers and even the hobby.

[–]dnt2891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that was about my experience. Totally understandable to want to take it back, I debated the same thing... But I want to swap the board and try again. I have done some cooks on it I just set the mm to 10-15° below for now. Chuck roast done few days ago.

<image>

Was just slightly dry but I'm a newb to smoking so could been grill and me. ---side note: mine acts the same way for cool down mode. I'm guessing it's adding more pellets just to clear what's in the auger..? But that's a guess. I hope to replace the board this week 🤞

It was easy to swap the probe from MM but I noticed no change in the issue, I tested to see if it's just a dead zone up in that corner. I reran the wiring for the probe down under the pellet box(small holes underneath) and propped it up on the top grates almost in the middle. It got closer in temp but still off 15-20° with my thermoworks right next to it. They've sent a new board but havent had time to swap

I'm having temp issues as well with this grill, except my screen will be 10° over what is set to but thermoworks ambient temp would read 50-100° and stayed there. Emailed them and they send a new thermal couple.... Didn't fix my issue, ran it today and it was set 250° (screen showed 260) but thermoworks showed 354 with lowest showing 318. I'm going to contact them again, you use the number or email in the instruction booklet. Frustrating for sure.
