How much water should I add to my hookah base?
The exact volume of water you need to add to your hookah base will vary depending on the size of your base and hookah stem. As a general rule, you want your hookah's down stem to be submerged about 1/4 - 1/2 inch in water. If using a hookah diffuser, fill your base with just enough water for the diffuser to be completely submerged.
