Illmatic Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Just gotta quickly mention that I ordered from John 4 days ago and it shipped to the UK immediately, received 250g Lucid Blue Gumball and a Tangiers phunnel bowl today! I ordered another from Nazarhookah which I believe is a chinese one. Pics below.I packed AF mint in the black bowl and it was disgustingly coaly! Atm I'm acclimating the Tangiers because the smell wasn't quite there, but what do you suggest for these two + AF? Help appreciated!

Scoop Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 the one on the right is the chinese right?. looks like it.the bottom being unglazed on the left indicates that its a tangiers phunnel to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotsi95 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 the black bowl is a phunnel made by havanna...they suck they use a lot of coals and the opening on the bottom is HUGE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil's butt boy. Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 the blue one looks like the chinese one I have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuburbanSmoker Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 i would disagree, the chinese funnels have a very smooth bottom that is alot smaller then that. also the chinese bottoms are flat. clearly you can see the curvature of the bottom, and well as it being unglazed. your chinese phunnel looks alot different, just need to compare the two.On a side note ive noticed af mint is one of the most broadcasting flavors ive ever smoked. it can ake a freaking beating, and only starts to taste nasty once you nuke the bowl. try less heat, or lighting your coals all the way if it tastes alot like coal.

Illmatic Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 Yep the blue is the Tangiers bowl, seems to be working better than the Chinese so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcbayern Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 The black phunnel is chinese, I have the same one from Nazar. it works well for me.. At least better than the egyptian it replaced. I have never owned an OG phunnel, so I cant compare.. Cotsi is correct the bowl does eat a lot of coal... But 2 cocos is the right amount on sum AF or SB..C_ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Yeah, Gnu, yours is a Chinese knock-off. The Blue one in Illmatic's picture is a Tangiers bowl. The black one looks even lower quality than Gnu's Chinese.For a conservative, Gnu, I would expect you to support American Industry, especially when the American product is higher quality and not support that neocon Wal Mart mentality...Of course if quality American products aren't important to you...

SmokinMoose Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I just picked a red phunnel from southsmoke Eric do you supply to them or did I end up with a Chinese Phunnel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
