Tip # 1 Scion

The scion is an integral hookah accessory, with the scion we can clean the hookah and get to those places we can't while cleaning. there are two types: 

hookah scion - metal rod with plastic hairs (spikes), we need to push & pull it through the hookah's body (barrel). 

It's recommended to use it at least once a month, or every two weeks for those who smoke a lot. 

You can and you should wash the hookah and wash the scion after use.  

Vase Scion - thicker than the hookah's scion and it has longer fibers. It's recommended to use it when the Vase is dirty, very important against all the bacteria that stuck to the vase. 

After checking with my doc it's the most dangerous prospect of smoking hookah, a good and recommended move is to change the water in the vase every day. 

also applies to Bongs. 

step # 7 fluid filling

The following article series will deal with using and preparing the hookah for the best.

The first stage is filling the vase and for that various options, diverse and surprising .. But before we expand on all of them will describe and explain how far should you fill the fluid.

The method is very simple and easy, taking the body hookah without the pitcher, place simultaneously captured (as like we connect tthe jar), see where the hookah barrel ends in relation to the vase, subtract cm to inch and a half (about a finger's thickness ), there will be fluid, no less.

If we put less, then the hookah not work or we'll have more oxygen if we fill it too little and will cause us to choke, and if we fill too much  water, than we'll have less smoke and more likely to go in liquids where we smoke a pipe, so be mindful.

Various liquids Options

I concentrated advantages and disadvantages table, show a more comfortable (1-10, where 10 is best)

Liquid	Costs	Pleasure	Cleaning	Healthy	Avarage Score
Water	10	9	7	8	8.5
Ice+Water	9	10	7	8	8.5
Water+Lemon	8	8	10	10	9
Juice	4	6	1	8	4.8
Milk	3	7	7	7	6
Vodka	2	1	10	3	4
Wine	1	3	2	5	2.7

Well as you can see from the table the most fun to smoke when filling ice with water.

Cheapest option is to use water.

It's the least messy water with lemon and vodka that the level of oxidation and disinfection which help maintain a clean pitcher more or less dirty if you will.

The least risky option is smoking water with lemon, since there is a large amount of bacteria that accumulate water and the jar itself, it is advisable to take your attention to that choice.

the best score is the ultimate option of water and/ or water with ice , which is my recommendation.

In summary, there are so many interesting possibilities, choose wisely.

step #5 adjusting the jar

We chose a hookah, we examined the body and the pipe and now we will review the issue of the jar. here are the steps to select and test a good jar :

1. Test Match - almost all waterpipes are taped in order to fit the jar perfectly to the hookah, but not always! Jars can fit excellent to your hookah, without unnecessary tapes, the matter of duct tape is not that critical, but still, you paid money for a new hookah, then ask if there is a better jar.Look at the bottom end of the hookah and check the area in the jar, if the barrel is too short you'll have less room for smoke, if you want to enjoy the smoke thick and tasty, near the bottom of the jars is more recommended

2. Another test is the stability of the jar, check and examine that the jar firmly seated on the ground, there are vases that were damaged in their production stage and has a  slightly curved tube, causing the hookah and the jar to sway a little, check it well.

3. Select a shape - there are various jars, you should choose a wide bottom and narrow at the top, so you will enjoy smoking more thicker smoke, think less about the beauty but more on quality and efficiency, in my opinion

4. ** Screw pitcher - think carefully before you choose to take a water pipe with a screw cap jar, because our jars sometimes broken, and it's very difficult to find a suitable jar later, which makes you to buy an entire new hookah

5. Color - It is advisable to select appropriate colored hookah vase to the head and/or the hose, there are also black jars or very dark ones which are not recommended, since it is hard to see where the water comes.
