afrdzak Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Ok, I'm trying to figure out what kind of coal these guys are using. So far, the two places that use it are "Zodiak" in San Diego (by SDSU), CA and "The Spot" in Encino, CA. They are long and cylindrical, sort of like a finger. It has the circumference of a thumb. They are extremely light, die off quick, and have a very clean burn. If ANYONE can figure this out for me, I would do anything for him/her (well almost, you know what i mean!!)

Mathazar Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Do yourself a favor and get Nour Coals. They burn clean & hot, and last awhile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afrdzak Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Nour is not it (i have it :-). Nour are not cylindrical, they are triangular with rounded edges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brother812 Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 the Nour coals sitting on top of my pipe right now are a cylinder. they came in a 1kg bag and all of them are a finger coal about 6 inches long. another cylinder coal i have been using is Diamante finger coal they are a bit smaller around than the Nour and don't last as long but just like Nour they have zero flavor.
