I really wanna give up, nothing works

Hey, I'm really at the point of giving up on making my own shisha at home. I've been trying for about 2 years now—researching, asking, testing—but nothing seems to work. I end up making the worst shisha imaginable. I've tried everything: brand-new shisha setups, fresh tobacco, different packing methods, and even followed detailed tutorials step by step, but I still can't make a decent one.

I've gone as far as sealing every tiny leak in my old shisha with epoxy—it's completely airtight now, so the shisha itself isn't the issue. I've tried multiple bowls, different flavors, even entirely new setups, but the results are always bad. Sometimes the taste is horrible and overwhelming, or there's no taste at all with weak smoke. It’s frustrating because I’ve spent so much money on this hobby, and no matter what I do, it never comes close to the quality I get at lounges.

This is my last resort before I give up completely. If anyone has any advice or tips, I’d be so grateful. Thank you for reading this long message.
