Necessities: 1 screen (or 4 sq. inch cut aluminum foil and needle or tweezers to punch holes), 1 Hookah clay bowl, Hookah tobacco, 1 Hookah coal, 1 glass chamber, 1 center stem, appropriate grommets, 1 Hookah hose, and 1 coal tong.

How to pack a Hookah

1. (Using 8-10gs of tobacco) Break up tobacco as finely as possible.
2. Place appropriate grommet into the bottom of the bowl. Lightly place tobacco into bowl. Make sure it is not packed in too tightly to allow air space for a clearer non-harsh smoke.
3. After bowl is packed, cover the top of the bowl with screen (or the 4 sq. inch aluminum foil. Be sure to wrap the aluminum foil tightly for an airtight pull).
4. After the bowl is covered, If you are using aluminum foil, take the end of the tongs (or a needle), poke holes from the center of the aluminum foil outward in a circular motion, leaving about 1\4 to a 1\2 an inch from the circumference.
5. (After the holes are poked) Fill glass chamber with water until approximately 1 1\2 inches from the bottom of the center stem.
6. After glass chamber is filled, place the black grommet on to the bottom of the center stem, then tightly squeeze the stem into the glass chamber (be sure the center stem is approximately 1 1\2 inches below water level).
7. After center stem is placed in chamber, place the hose grommet on to the end of the hose and squeeze the hose into the side socket of the center stem tightly.
8. When the Hookah is set up to this point place the bowl tightly on the top of the center stem.
9. Squeeze the coal lightly with the tong and light it carefully, holding it away from your body. After the coal is fully lit place it on the top of the bowl and pull excessively until smoke is thick and full.
10. When smoke is thick and full, sit back, relax and “feel the buzz”.
