Voski Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 So I come home grab all my hookah stuff except for my phunnel bowl! When I get to my friends house we start setting up and I realize the only have a MYA bowl and a really shallow egpytian one. The right thing would have been to make the 2 minute drive back to my house but I said fuck it il give these a try. No matter what I tried I could not get tangiers to smoke. Long story short they are both in the trash right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boulderkid303 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Thats odd....I can get tangiers to smoke just fine out of almost any bowl. But you should keep trying, because once you know how to pack it in a normal bowl you got some skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy1966 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Yup, I agree, I set up Tangiers in a MYA bowl and an Egyptian head and I have no problems at all. Make sure you use bigger holes in the foil, and poke all the way down to the bottom of the bowl. Coals on the sides of the bowl. I will put the tobacco in the bowl kinda fluffy and then pack it down lightly so it is just barely below the rim of the bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahwahoo2006 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Even though you couldn't get Tangiers to smoke this time, I wouldn't throw away your bowls just yet. Tangiers takes much practice to get right, plus I'm sure you will want to smoke other types of tobacco, and having extra bowls is always handy.

staygone Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I'll take them, I looove my super shallow egyptian and mya bowl. Good to have variety.-QM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhishPhood Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 When I smoke i always pack my phunnel and a second bowl (usually shallow egyptian until I broke it yesterday) just to change up flavor. I get a good smoke out of tangiers in a reg bowl. Just set it up how I normally do, except the holes are a bit bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechAnt Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 With regular bowls and Tangiers, I tend to overpack them A LOT. You can skate by with Tangiers right to the rim in a phunnel, but overpack by almost half a centimeter in a regular bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 oh I had it slightly over the rim and just kept using less and less everytime I packed another bowl. Oh well maybe next time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechAnt Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 On a regular bowl, you need to overpack a lot more than a phunnel. That's pretty much the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
