i wouldnt use one...if thats the question.
The metal bowls you see are solid metal, if thats the question.
um..what's the question?

Yeah, sorry about that. My comp lost power in the middle of my posting, and apparently it only submitted the topic.


I'm on the look for a new bowl, and I was wondering if anyone could
tell me about those metal coated clay bowls. (Not the full out steel
bowls). I've read alot of peoples reviews that the metal bowls heat up
too fast, and I wasn't sure if it was the same for the coated ones?

I've got one, and I like it. I get a more complete burn(so to speak). It tends to reflect the heat onto the tobacco. Be careful, it doesn't need as much heat to get the bowl smoking good.

I enjoy just the clay bowl, it allows me to have a good smokeing session and not get a harsh or burnt flavour.  I have used metal bowls in the past and they seem to become harsh much faster than the clay ones

Maybe I'll go ahead and order one just to play with. If I do I'll be sure to let everyone know how it goes.

let us know how that goes. ive used a metal and it wasted shisha burning too quickly. maybe the coated one would give the best of both worlds.

Don't suppose you can provide a lint to one of these puppies could you?
Thanks.

I've never tried using a metal bowl, but it sounds like it could be more efficient in theory. People complain that it burns tobacco too quickly, but there has to be a way to create the proper amount of heat using less coal, right?

macho: cool...i still think that suckers going to get damn hot. The metal is going to get very hot quickly and with a clay core to retain the heat, it may even get hotter that an all metal one....
Definitly let us know how it works out.
