Glycerin for Hookah — How Much for More Smoke?

Glycerin (vegetable glycerin / VG) is what makes hookah smoke thick and visible. Understanding how much to use is key to a great session.

Why Glycerin?

Glycerin vaporizes at low temperature producing visible, thick white clouds. It is the primary smoke ingredient in all commercial hookah tobaccos.

How Much to Add

Quick boost: Add 1-3ml VG to 20g tobacco, mix well. DIY molasses: 40-60% glycerin in the mix. Herbal shisha: Even more glycerin needed (50-70%).

Food-Grade vs Technical

Always use food-grade VG (USP/Ph.Eur). Never technical grade. Food-grade is safe to inhale when heated. Buy from reputable suppliers.
