John Stuart Mill Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 If your friend ever packs a metal bowl I advise you slap them and make for a quick exit. The entire session tasted like flaming feces. I’ve heard that the greater heat conductivity of metal posed a problem, but good god it burnt faster than California.

We also played with the heat management for some time, and it seemed as though it either didn’t smoke or it burnt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been permanently scared by that one session and wish to never risk a repetition. I've been able to get a good smoke out of a metal bowl, the way i recommend using it is to put an extremely small amount of tobacco and use heat. I would say put half the tobacco as you think you should and use half the coal... The bowl tends to burn out after about 30 minutes, but should smoke well for that period. It takes some practice and for me I liked using it when I only wanted a short smoke or am smoking with people that don't smoke much...By the way, the bowl will be unbearably hot so be careful when you handle it.

erufiku Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Sometimes I wonder if the people who design hookah products know anything about it at all. With the obvious exception of Tangiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny_D Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 I still have a steel bowl in my collection. Far too small, but [before i landed on HF.com] I used to smoke with it all the time. Used to get45min session from about 5g's of tobacco.Of course I was paying £5 for 50g's those days [$10 to you lot]There not quite as evil as all that... but of course Clay is where it's at.JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
