Webbles Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Snoop thanks so much for the video. You really get a sense of hOW much your packin too by the amount in your fingers JUST as you place it in the bowl. Well done my friend.Also, the more videos of people packing bowls of tangiers, the better IMO. It gives those of us who are tryin to master the art, to really get a sense of packing the bowl. And often times its not just 1 thing, its lots of little itty bitty things that make the difference.Like when you said "the more you play with it, the less likely you packed a good bowl" - that really hit home with me, becuase im always playin with it.Again, thanks so much!Cheers!

pinky Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Thanks for the video! Too bad that you can't see so much at the packing of the bowl. Aren't three coconaras too much? Eric always tells us to use little heat. Coconaras should burn hotter than Japanese coal. Aren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texico Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I used your vid as a guide for setting up my Tangiers with my new coconaras just now. I think I didn't accimate it enough, but with 2 cocos it's great. I'm getting really good flavor (it's Mint) and decent smoke with no harshness at all. Thanks much Snoop!

I am using 2 coconaras right now and I am getting great smoke. 3 may seem like a lot to some, but it really is not once you know the heat management, Tangiers is a pretty forgiving tobacco. I have burnt it, and recovered it many times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarCuzz Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 So, Tangiers...1. cannot be packed too tight2. cannot be packed too loose3. has to be touching the side4. has to be touching the middle5. has to be packed to the top (or higher)how are these able to coexist?

bjelder Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 (edited) Hey snoop- just packed another tangiers bowl according to your vid but I had one question. How high does the shisha usually stick above the edges of the phunnel? before you put the foil on Edited June 8, 2008 by bjelder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How high does the shisha usually stick above the edges of the phunnel? before you put the foil onHey man obviously i'm not an expert, but from what i've read, the video, and advice I've gotten it usually sticks up about 1/8th of an inch above the rim. When I did my bowl I followed Snoops video exactly and it stuck up just a bit above the rim naturally. Not saying I did it perfect, I'm just glad I didn't screw up the first bowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjelder Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Yeah, seems to me that if its not sticking up at all you get really harsh smoke.. Eric said it had something to do with the high nicotine content that causes really harsh smoke if theres a big gap there. But if its up too much you won't be able to heat up all the shisha like snoop said. And my guess would be the coals would like singe the tobacco if its ALL right up against the foil.My bowl right now stuck up about 1/4" and its working pretty well. Did the foil press down until I saw an outline of the inner circle, then pulled it down tight. Seemed to work out pretty well.I think as long as its sticking somewhat above the bowl and touching the sides it should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure they're not falling out. Mine seem to "singe" just a wee bit after I threw the coals on and a little was crispy just a little though when I emptied the bowl out and put the rest back with it's "family" So I'm thinking I either A) packed too much/too high or my holes were too large But it wasn't terrible so that's a BIG + to me, it was actually pretty damn good. So I can't wait to try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalSoil Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Snoop you may correct me if i'm wrong but as far as height, you're looking at something like this before you press it down at all right?Hope that helps some of you that are curious about the height.

Snoopy1966 Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 Yup mine is very close to that height. I have mine just a little over the top and packed firm but not tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalSoil Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 yeah i had actually moved over and done about what you do now.that picture was taken last December and i didnt touch the tobacco after i took that pic. just put the foil right on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Ew! You touch it with your fingers?!Thats why I always use a seafood fork. puts it in the bowl and pokes holes in the foil. Real good. Looks like a good generous amount of tobacco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
