Tangiers Red Tea Problems

[Bulldog_916]

Ok, I'm smoking out of a different pipe this time, but still with the phunnel and nammour. This time, two coco coals and an wind cover...MUCH BETTER. I suppose coco naras put out more heat than I had surmised.

It's still a little harsh at the end of the pull, but from experience, it should die down later in the session...I'll keep you posted.

Indeed, I am becomming an exclusive Tangiers person, too. I had troubles with long sessions at first, but now I find I get tired of smoking after about 30 - 45 minutes. I smoke once a day though.

As for skipping the wind cover, I have tried that too with good results. It is a littler more harsh, but not bad. (I say that because as you may have noticed already, Tangiers gets that way if you don't have enough heat.) For my rig, I like to use the cover anyways. Helps keep carpet repairs to a minimum.

I hope you meant if you use TOO MUCH heat Tangiers gets harsh. Generally I like to use 2 of any coal. Never more. Sometimes less. It just depends on the size of coal and the amount of heat it puts out.
