frost91 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 So thursday i will smoke my tangiers BGB ORIGINAL. My second time trying tangiers. As some say. I will be MURDERED IN THE FACE. I hope i can survive. well ive watched so many people show how to pack. Some say that you have to push the tabbaco down after you over pack, yet some say that you have to touch the foil to the tabbaco, aka hookah johns video. but in snoopys video, he did not do that. I am confused guys. Do i let it touch the foil or not?! please help. I do not wanna get royally owned. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbs Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 It matters not whether shisha touches foil or not. Your consequences will be far more noticeable if you were to under pack your Tangiers than a little bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryno Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I cant see a bowl of Tangiers being packed and the foil not touching... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 frost ... best advice i can give you after screwing around with tangiers ... it is different for almost everyone. Some methods work for some, and some methods don't work that millions say will work. No advice other than over pack, use very little heat, and a lot of holes (even saying a lot of holes is arguable, many use few holes and have success.) So just pack the shit out of it, and experiment man, that is what you have to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I will say it took me awhile to get it and the method that I find to work the best that I only use now is Snoopy's method good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDHarding Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 The way Tangiers is packed, it's gonna touch the foil. Tangiers likes being overpacked, but not squished down. Just scoop it into your bowl with a spoon or fork, no sprinkling. And when it comes to heat.. start with one coal, and go from there. Don't start with 3-6 coals or it'll burn the top layer and then your session will be screwed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuburbanSmoker Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 as everyone has stated its all about over packing. as far as heat management goes start off with 1 coal at most, then slowy add more and more until you get to that happy place we all love tangiers for. it is trial and error, which is why alot of people are kinda scared away, however any one who smokes tangiers will tell you its well worth it.

Tuscani Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Another good tip, is use an actual tangiers phunnel... try as i may with a shitty chinese knockoff, i can't get tangiers to smoke right, but since I got my tangiers mini, I have been smoking original tangiers like a steam engine! crazy delicious!

redjako Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 I finally found some success after wasting bowls and bowls (on a med. tangiers phunnel) by adding 1 coco, another after 5 min, then TEN minutes later a third.It will then smoke / taste great in another FIVE minutes.Lolz, takes forever.

Sonthert Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Try using half as much coal...if the smoke is thin and harsh, take the charcoal off and add a peanut M&M-sized or nickel-sized clump to the bowl. Put the foil back on and try with half the charcoal...until the smoke is the least harsh possible, then add charcoal until its right.See if this idea helps.If you are getting your ass kicked and getting good smoke thickness, I think you have too little tobacco and too much charcoal.
