I have a japona shuriken venge hookah. Since 1 month the flavor is always very harsh. I have tried different bowls and also removed the pipe but it doesn’t solve the problem. The flavor always tastes kind of burnt and it never tastes minty even if the bowl is packed with mostly mint. When I remove the bowl from my japona hookah and put it on another hookah, then it tastes fine. That’s how I know the problem is with the japona hookah. What could be the issue?
There are lots of different practices around cleaning a hookah. You definitely want to do a deep clean often. Some say you can get away with doing a quick rinse after every session, then doing a deep clean daily, weekly, or monthly, depending on how often you smoke. Others say you should deep clean after every session. It's really up to personal preference and hygiene requirements. If you're sharing hookah, now more than ever, make sure your hookah is clean before your session starts. Stay Safe and Stay Legendary!
