11 Great Hookah Accessories

By John McCree


Having bought your own hookah, you are probably thinking what sort of accessories you can purchase to further improve your experience. Some individuals keep their hookahs straightforward with the only the components that are essential. There are other people who prefer to add accessories to their hookahs such as gadgets to cool the smoke and stands that rotate the hookah for easy passing of the hose. Here is a thorough list of accessories that you can add to your hookah for fashion or for function.

Hookah Hose - It would appear that a hookah hose is self explanatory. However, there is a lot more that you do not know about it. There are two kinds of hoses; washable and non-washable A washable hose can be washed with water, while the non-washable is blown through and shook instead. Non-washable hose gives a potent flavor of the tobacco. Some individuals think that it will boost the taste, while some think it is bothersome. Many individuals complain about the washable hose that it provides a faint plastic taste. This problem can be solved by washing the hose with lemon juice and sodium bicarbonate. The non-washable hose can become rusty since it is made of metal and therefore it is important to clean it regularly and thoroughly. There are different lengths, colors and widths of hoses. These three things rely on your personal choice. When you buy a hookah hose make sure to clean it regularly so that it functions properly.

Hookah Tongs - Hookah tongs are more or less a compulsory accessory for all hookah owners. These tongs come in a variety of sizes and shapes but all serve the same purpose, which is to carry the charcoal onto your shisha head and move the charcoal around the top of the shisha head, all without burning your hands. Many of the tongs have a small metal rod meant to poke holes in the foil.

Charcoal Carriers - If you don't want to drop embers of charcoal on your floor or on your carpet while moving the charcoal around then you should get a charcoal carrier. You can also keep multiple coals in a carrier so that as soon as one coal burns out, you can quickly change it. To keep your hand away from the heat, they are made with a high handle

Ice Hose Tips - Hoses with removable mouthpieces can use these tips. They are non-toxic packets of water tat like cubes while frozen. As the smoke travels through the tip and comes in contact with the frozen water packets, it is chilled to a lower temperature for a smooth and icy experience!

Hookah Base Light - Hookah base light is an accessory simply for fashion and not for function. It is a platform, which shines LED lights into the water and is kept below the vase.

Hookah Wind Covers - When used inside the hookah wind cover stops the shisha mix in the bowl from overheating as it regulates the burn rate of the coal and therefore lets you enjoy longer smoking time. Used outside, the hookah cover will prevent the wind from disrupting your smoking sessions.

Hookah Mouthpieces/Tips - If people are sharing one shisha, then it is highly recommended to use these mouthpieces to avoid passing germs. These disposable, plastic mouthpieces fit on the hose's tip and are simple to place on and take off as the hose changes hands. There are two basic types of mouthpieces on the market, whistle style and tent style

Hookah Grommets - A Hookah Grommet Set is the only quick and easy way to keep your hookah airtight during use, and in better condition over the years. These are found in a set as well as separately. A set features three grommets, one for each, the stem, the hose and the bowl. A grommet won't airtight your hookah, if it is not of the proper size.

Hookah Rotating Stand: A rotating stand can be used to pass the hookah hose around effortlessly. The stand comes in several sizes to securely hold the hookah.

Steel Hookah Charcoal Screen - This is a reusable stainless steel charcoal screen utilized in place of aluminum foil to keep the hot charcoal. As in the case of aluminum foil, there is no need to poke holes in this screen for air flow. It is quite easy to use and the setup time is decreased.

Double or Triple Hookah Head Bowl - If you like to combine different flavors then this is an ideal accessory for you. You can mix multiple flavors using a multiple hookah head by pouring different flavors in every bowl.

When you purchase a hookah, there are a lot of accessories that you can purchase with it. Many of them are both fun and functional. For many, hookah has become an accessory in their daily life. Haven't you heard about accessorizing your accessory? Don't be afraid to decorate your hookah up!
