Coal Question!

[loonibab]

Well, I just purchased my first hookah, but I really am not a big fan of those quicklites.. I really like natural coals.. so my question is, how do you guys with apartmants and no grill light your natural coals?? is their any butane powered mini grill out there or something that is good for liteing them??

Thanks in advanced!

Any sort of stove would work just fine. Including those electric coil types. Something I recently discovered that works EXTREMELY well at lighting Japs are those butane torch lighters that are meant for cigars and such. Work like a charm.

get a propane blow torch thats gonna work fine lighting your natural coal but if you don't have that, the ordinary stove works fine too. natural coal takes plenty of time to light up with matches so get the blow torch.

Hey

What we once used when we had no way of going to buy coal and had to use natural coals,we used a little camping gas cooker it works really well.
You can just leave the coal on the grid while you prepare the other things for your hookah

a picture is attached as to what it looks like....you should be able to get in any camping shop

The fuel for those is about 4 times the cost of the big cans for a propane torch, at least around here

dont those use propane as well? also have the same nozzle as a regular portable propane tank for blow torch?
cuz i know that my coleman dual burner camp stove uses the same canister as a blow torch.

I could be wrong, but we have a couple stoves like his picture (my dad's a scoutmaster and 3 scouts/formerscouts in the family) and they all run on either isobutane or white gas. We do have one that runs on propane, but its got 2 burners and is very big and heavy.
