Post Pictures Of How You Pack Your Tangies Bowl


Recommended Posts

so i'm here in school on my laptop looking at all the active discussions going on about setting up tangiers in a bowl. A lot of people still don't get it right. Everyone seems to have their own way. When I get home later I'll take a picture of how I do it with my phunnel.(hopefully my g/f left the camera at home). Theres many posts out there of different ways people do it. I thought it'd be best if WE ALL post pictures of how we do it with some side notes on how we do it.

....post away biggrin.gif

sorry for the crappy quality.

as you can see i use the scalli mod, because i personally think that smokes the best with tangiers.





i put 3 half 40mm 3kings coals on it when i smoke.

i always (only smoked tangiers 5 times) get good clouds and flavor this way.

I was just thinking a thread maybe in the how-to forum with different opinions adn styles, due to the frequency of the topic.

*Edit*

The pics are fine, you can see what you need to see. What kind of foil do you use? Edited by Geiseric

I use a Tangiers Medium Phunnel w/ Scalli mod.

To pack the tobacco, I simply break it up a bit between my fingers and drop it in around the Scalli mod until it is filled to the rim. I then press it down ever so lightly and tightly wrap the foil on top, shiny side down. The Scalli mod does not move inside the bowl when the tobacco is packed in.

This is the hole pattern I use:



For coals I use two Golden Quicklights broken in half with one half placed over each hole group. I use my windcover to manage the heat and control the harshness/smoke volume.

Setting up like this gives me an incredible volume of smoke and massively thick clouds, the flavour is also super intense. I will post some pictures of my set up after my next smoke.

Isnt this suppose to be how we pack tangiers? I never use a mod. It makes it smoke so much worse in my opinion. You also have to use more coals with the mod. I can get nice good thick smoke (better than starbuzz) with one and a half or 2 coals when I pack tangiers. ASUSean brought it up awhile back in a thread, use bigger holes and you won't get it harsh so much. Ive always used big big holes on mine, because thats the way it looked in Erics pics from when he packed it so.

Upon review, yes you are correct. The title is misleading and I suppose I misread RayVer's original post. What I wrote was for non-tangiers tobacco. Please disregard my post then.

I'm guessing a video would be great. Also if you could actually smoke it would be pretty cool. I have no problem setting up my tangy bowl, but when ever i smoke tangiers it's tough getting the heat just right. So far i've only gotten smoke a little thicker than cigs. Oh and before i forget, is there anything i can put in my base to add to the orange flavor? I mean i already tried tropicana orange juice and couldn't taste a damn thing. sad.gif.
