greeknate88 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Ok, someone in an earlier thread mentioned that it may take several, 5-10, sessions to break in a nammor. Aka, no plastic taste. Can anyone confirm or deny this fact? Also, would cleaning it with vodka or lemon juice expedite the process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speel Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I could deny it, when i got mine i just rinsed it with hot water and was good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vin13 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 My Nammor had quite a powerful plastic smell to it for a little bit. I'd rinse it in hot water and maybe some lemon juice if you have some around. Probably won't take it all out but will do a good bit of work on the smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy1966 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 When I get any new hose, I just hang it over a door knob for a day and then use it. For the Nammore run warm not hot water through it a bunch of times, blow out as much water as you can and hang it for a day. Works like a charm for me. I never had any plastic taste what so ever.

hookah hippie Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I just bought 2 more and all I did just as with my previous ones was clean it out well with vinegar and then rinse it with water let it sit and dry by hanging it up. No plastic taste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuburbanSmoker Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 just make sure the mouth tip and piece that go into the hookah are washed well. I have black handles and when rinsed out i got alot of purple liquid. first day smoked tastless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codename067 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Running warm water time over time will eventually get rid of the smell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheezerman Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Hot water, one vinegar rinse.The plastic taste + smell lasted less than 3 smoking sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathan_Choi Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Confirm for about 5-6 uses. The first few SUCK, big time. Lots of plastic taste, its kinda gross.After about 5 or so it's pretty much gone, after 6 or 7 it should be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabiscuit Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) It was me who was complaining about the Nammour...I've tried everything... Hot water, cold water, lemon juice, vinegar, and vodka... The hose STILL has a plastic taste to it and it masks the flavor of the shisha. It really is ridiculous... I'd f'n send the things back if I haven't already smoked with em 7 times (coming up to the big 10). The plastic "wang" does dissipate with each use but not by much. I've wasted a bunch of tobacco already on this damn hose and by session 10, if it still tastes like crap, I'm sending them back. There really should've been a disclaimer listed on the website when you buy these things. Edited July 10, 2008 by Nabiscuit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronald_dooley Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 get some bottled lemon juice. mix 1/4 cup with 1/2 cup hot water and slush it around in your hose for a few mins. Then drain it. Then repeat. Then run hot water through it for a few mins.That should work. It's what I did, anway... and it worked. Although people seem to have different experiences with the nammor hose. Some people claim that their nammor hose leaks... some say the plastic taste is strong, etc.For me, my nammor hose is fine. The taste went away with the lemon juice treatment, and it doesn't leak at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog_916 Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Smoke strong flavors in it. That's what I did with my vinyl hose and I got no taste from it in about 2 sessions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
