Which Funnel Bowl Is The Best?


Recommended Posts

I've found several different funnel bowls. Tangiers, MNH's glass funnels, those cheap chinese funnels, but which smoke the best?

And if ya got any tips on how to make it smoke best, that would be great. smile.gif


Go with the OG. Get a Tangiers Small Phunnel unless you regularly smoke with more than 3 people. If that's the case, get a medium.

Where did you get it from and when. If you call quickly and find that they didn't ship it yet most vendors will be glad to fix it for you.

It'll only be me most of the time, and on occassion one of my friends will come over for a smoke. So the small will be enough.

What about Scalli's glass mod? Or should I just use a tinfoil hat for the hole? I also got some metal tealight bottoms, though I think they're too big for a small.

The small would be perfect then. And i would definatly recommend the mod. I didn't get it and with just me that bowl last way way way too long..... i mean i'll sit and smoke for an hour and a half easy and barely heat the top layer. the mod will reduce the amount you have to put in and if you have friends over you can always go without the mod and have more shisha there.

Yeah Large is usually considered a party bowl because you can pack lots of shisha in there like 60-75g Medium is good for around 3 people 4 people

Small is good for 1-2 people.... Small bowl lasts up to an hour or two depending how hard your pulling your shisha.

Man I'm a poor college student. I've got a small Tangiers phunnel and whatever shisha isn't burned up at the end of a session I just put back in with all the other shisha. Can never tell the difference cause the shisha holds all the wetness thanks to the phunnel design smile.gif

i have a small and can smoke 1 bowl for 2-3 hours i dont see how you could possible finish a large or medium even with multiple people.

the small tangiers funnel for sure is the top of the line the chinese ive heard sucks


i think its just a matter of what they tried first. my chinese phunnels heat up in about 20 seconds, conversely they cool very fast so they need a wind screen when the coals are <50%. personally i like this because i can go cook a meal and come back and its still fine.

I use a medium tangiers phunnel 99% of the time. I have a large that i got several years ago, i've never finished a bowl out of that. I've smoked it packed up with like 4-5 people smoking on it for 3-4 hours and it just doesn't quit.

The med. phunnel i can smoke consistent for 2 hours easily and at that point the very bottom of the tobacco is usually still a bit wet.

I originally bought what I thought was a small... turned out to be a medium. Just ordered a small funnel from HC hoping it turns out to be just that.

Anyways, I bought my first funnel before the chinese knockoffs were around. I can't speak to their quality but I would rather support the original maker. The mnh glass funnels are beautiful and would love to own one but just can't justify spending that much for a bowl.
