Abstract

A removable, universal base bowl and stem combination for attaching to a hookah pipe, and a pre-packaged, disposable capsule with the molasses. Included is a container product for use with a hookah pipe, comprising: a base including a base bowl; a stem, the stem being a hollow cylinder having an outer surface and an inner surface, and, a capsule including molasses therein, the capsule shaped to fit within the base bowl. The base bowl has an upwardly extending curved wall, the curved wall culminating at an upper edge; and, a hole at an intersection of the base bowl and the stem curved wall. The capsule bowl includes a capsule bowl including a capsule bowl edge, the capsule bowl further including a perforated bottom surface and a continuous side wall extending upwardly therefrom to the capsule bowl edge.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a product for use with a hookah pipe that includes a removable universal base bowl and stem combination, and a disposable capsule with molasses. The bottom of the capped bowl has small perforations that allow air to flow through while containing coal. The technical effect is the creation of a convenient and easy-to-use product for hookah smoking that allows for easy replacement of the molasses and provides a consistent and desirable taste.

Problems solved by technology

The prior art system and method outlined above is problematic for a number of reasons.

First, the prior art process is time-consuming because of the multiple steps required to prepare the hookah.

Second, the prior art system and method requires multiple supplies and / or components.

Third, the prior art system and method cannot be used to produce a consistent product.

For example, the prior art system and method requires manual handling of the molasses and perforating the aluminum foil and therefore, the risk of over or under-filling the bowl and over or under-perforating the aluminum foil exist.

Thus, the prior art does not provide a consistent user experience.

Fourth, the prior art system and method requires additional maintenance of the bowl.

Thus, cleaning of the bowl is required after every use, which is time-consuming and messy.
