    Thank you for these videos! I’ve been out of the hookah game for a few years, now that I’m getting back into it things have changed so much that I really needed a new crash course on what all is out there. Thank you so much for your calm and in depth explanations.
    Keep it up your channel is awesome. 💖✨

      Thank You so much! We’ve been busy with the launch of www.hookahunltd.com and building a new content creation studio for shorts and long-format videos too! Once it’s finished the team and I plan to post regular content again. It’s hookah enthusiasts like you who inspire us to do this 💯

    The steamulation hmd is meant to be used not the way way you showed it, but upside down, that's why it has those 3 rings so it can fit to various bowls on top, and you close it on top and control the heat by the height of it

      @@9999825354l here’s a pro tip to help you out - in the Hookah UNLIMITED community on fb, I’ve already established the differences between various shisha types, in the case of blonde leaf I’ve defined Standard Tier and Performance Tier Blondes. In general, Standard Tier Blondes (aka Beginner Tier) pair best with Lotus I+ and a quick look through www.hookahunltd.com > al Fakher will show you pack, bowl, and HMD recommendations
      In the case of Fakher and Afzal, they’re both Standard Blondes.

      @SarkisAlexander  2 года назад +2

      Well if we’re being honest, I was the first to use the Provost successfully and my methods that I’ve taught have become standard. The Provost, due to its characteristics, should be used with foil. The Lotus, due to its characteristics, should definitely be not used this way. You’re hindering your session and only experiencing maybe 60% of the potential of whatever you pair it with.

      @@SarkisAlexander thanks for the tip. Nobody really taught me to use the foil, I just tried it and most of the time people don't get why when I set up for them.
      In regards to the Lotus, I appreciate your breakdown. For me personally I like th results from the lotus with the foil, otherwise it chars it too quickly. I don't pack the bowl to the brim since i don't want to waste my shisha.

      @@TheDapperDirk and kudos for you for finding your own way! I’ve had thousands of customers - at my lounge which I ran for nearly 13 years - tell me the same thing only to change their mind within one session with me. So I hope you continue to join me on this journey as I tackle every aspect of hookah. Lotus and Provost how-to videos coming after the Steamulation Pro X II Technical Breakdown and Review videos. And eventually I’ll go over packing per brand so you, and those like you, will experience shisha on a whole new level 💯
      Edit: and you’re not wrong about foil-only set ups. I’ve told people for as long as I remember that the first step to mastering hookah is mastering the foil session. Once you do you can better comprehend how to achieve even better sessions with the right HMD for the tobacco you choose to use

    • @SarkisAlexander
      @SarkisAlexander  Год назад +1

      Probably the dumbest thing one can do is pair foil with a HMD that’s designed to replace foil. You shouldn’t do it for a slew of reasons - the main one among many would be due to the fact that you reduce the potential of the session by 40%

      We sure didn’t delete it. We were wondering where it went too! Sarkis first mentioned it when he saw the notification but nothing showed up when clicking on it.
      In fact, the proof that these kind of things don’t bother us that there was someone else who mentioned the same exact thing before you in the comments of this video. Along with a few dozen who had DM’d us at IG and FB
      The answer has always been the same: thank you for paying attention, wait for the review and how to of the Steamulation HMD (because, we hope obviously so, this was not a review)

    the gemini increases heat by putting coals closer to the bowl and decreases by moving them further away
    works pretty well
    looking forward to the provost review. i can never get it to smoke as well as a lotus

    • @SarkisAlexander
      @SarkisAlexander  3 года назад +2

      That’s the same u can do with foil alone. A heat management device must give u the ability to manage the heat without touching the coal - outside of what’s standard as you would normally do with foil. And no, it does not work well, it’s a joke of a product. And I’m terribly sorry you’ve been tricked into thinking it is

    • @SarkisAlexander
      @SarkisAlexander  3 года назад

      Oh and also, I’ve talked extensively on the subject of pairing the right HMD to the tobacco brand you’re smoking. The Provost is not a Lotus and doesn’t have the same characteristics; where Lotus shines with what I’ve categorized as Beginner Tier brands, Provost is capable of taking Performance Tier Shisha Brands to their peak potential

      If you use a lotus +1 and the provost in a way that utilities their strengths with a certain brand. Each one will give you very different experience. With Starbuzz, Serbetli, etc beginners. The Lotus brings out a great session because of gentle it applies the heat and brings out their sessions great! The provost would spike heat and burn those brands really quick. But a provost with Haze, Trifecta, Tangier's, etc. The high heat is exactly what those brands can take to bring out the most of sessions without burning it.
      I personally don't look at Lotus or provost as interchangeable. Lotus is for my beginner blondes while provost is for my performance shishas. I keep them separate.

    • @SarkisAlexander
      @SarkisAlexander  3 года назад +1

      @@RubenGarcia-bn2yg they’re definitely not interchangeable. Just like how each tobacco brand must be considered singularly, each HMD must as well. One must play off the strengths of each gadget. Great job Ruben, proud of your progress so far at the Hookah Masterclass 💯

      Hi, we welcome your opinion, but we are not talking about which is the better HMD here. We are only defining and explaining *what* an HMD is and what a given device needs to be able to do in order to *be* an HMD. Whether we love the Na Grani HRD is irrelevant to this topic of discussion - this video is only aimed at showing that it’s not a Heat Management Device for the clear reasons stated in the video)
