On all my hookahs I always use a diffuser*.
*{A Diffuser in our case is an attatchment which breaks up the normal hookah hubbly bubbly bubbles made by indraw of breath on the hose and make them not only smaller, but it makes a lot less noise. Which is good if your wife or landlord are bothered.Worse if your parents hear!}
        
 
“Hey¬† you guys here:”
In previous posts I wrote some ideas like buying one,¬† or better, making your own. If you see the post under “Diffusers” you can see great photos of how they work in water, how to make, etc. I use 4 plastic bending straws stuck in the bottom of the shaft cut to size.Keep them a bit longer so that when inserted with the shaft, they will splay outward to 3,4 directions. The thing is, you need to either keep the same straws and take them out when cleaning the hookah (which I must do 2 days AGO!) or use new ones. I by chance came about a much better idea.You know, those flame lighters that are better to light a gas stove than a match and burn your fingers? I took the metal shaft off of one when the flint was worn down and even re-filling it was useless, and tried it on a mini hookah whose shaft was too short anyways in my opinion.The result was 2 more inches of metal shaft in the water, plus a built-in diffuser!!!
You will hopefully see in the below photos that at the end of the lighter shaft are¬† usually 3 or four holes, just as a rifle has at the end of its barrel to emit gas and then it won’t blow up from the force.The shaft from the lighter fit perfectly into the mini shaft. In the case of bigger hookahs since the shaft diameter is larger, you just bend the shaft which is tin easily.
I used this on the mini but its good for large :
Here you can see the holes at the end of the shaft, but this looks like a very sturdy, long lasting lighter-just buy a cheapie for our diffuser purpose :
(Has the holes @ the end).
Do I have to explain where and how to stick this in the shaft? A child could do it!
The end connected to the plastic should be inserted into your hookah shaft  since the lighter side has the holes for diffusion.
 Please, NO!
 This is flexible and could work even better.
                     
Another diffuser plan :
see small bubbles
wrong kind of bubbles in thewrong place
This not ONLY diffuses, it acts as a filter, but needs replacing when filthy.

Just “food for thought”
If you haven’t gotten the hint, I’m starving and its 5:13Am with nostores where I live in Israel between Hebron and Bethleham, but our local store opens at 7:20 and they have great chummus and fresh pita! (I do have a lot of spices around tho).
¬†No, they are not Bedouin, but German musical musicians, mainly cellos, electic guitar, drums and some guest singers. I put this on the blog once, but since I am being blown away, I’d like to share it with you :This video was filmed in the desert, looks like Sahara with Linda Sundblad singing.Why do 99% of the women singers look better than models?
