What are people's take on "hookah foil"?


:scratch_one-s_head:depending on the bowl i'm using - if i'm lazy i'll use the metal screen for the mya bowl since it fits snugly.

Right now i usually use the squares of hookah foil, It's nice not having large spare sheets of foil in the pantry and again - lazy.

Reynolds HD, BUT I want to get a tangiers phunnel and get one of those MNH glass screens. They look so slick and easy to use!

Pretty sure the MNH glass screens are custom-made for the MNH glass phunnels... In other words, I don't believe they'll fit a Tangiers phunnel bowl.

As for what I use, I voted Reynolds HD. I'm currently out right now though and have been using two sheets of regular Reynolds foil. Works okay. I'll buy more HD foil when I get around to it.

HD foil til the glass screen gets here

Then after a couple weeks you will be back to HD

The concept is good, but the fact is it's a pain to keep the coals lit because there is no air flow around them when you smoke. I use mine with my jet phunnel occassionally but it's better just to use HD

My MN glass screen, as I found out, is fairly useless with a Tang phunnel. I'm sure I'll eventually get a MNH glass phunnel because I'm obsessive, but for now I use HD or precuts.

Exactly my thoughts.... Glass screen is a good idea, but it just doesn't work that well. And you have to wait around 10 minutes for it to heat the damn thing up to start smoking

I use the pharoahs pre-cut hookah foil. i used to use a glass screen but like ryno and Stuie said, the're not much airflow and it take a while to heat up. Plusm the screen get's hard to clean up. I switched back to foil and am having better sessions.

Well maybe I'll get a jet phunnel, paycheck after this looks to be nice and fat *knock on wood*. A pretty pink and black and clear would look nice on my Rosa.

I use whatever foil I have around. Right now, I use the precut cheapo foil from H-S. Usually I'd buy some cheap stuff, but when I use up my cheap pre cut stuff, I'll upgrade to Reynolds Hd.
