Amount Of Coals For Particular Shisha

[blagage]

I have found that Nakhla shisha can take more heat that most others. I will use 4 or 5 coals the entire time with big flavor and no worries about it being harsh. Has anyone found this to be true also? What is the typical coals you use for your preferred shisha? This may help others on the forum keep their tobacco from burning and becoming harsh

what size/type of bowl are you using and what coals?

[mustang67n]

with nak, I use a standard mya bowl, with 2 coconara's and I get massive clouds and amazing flavor lasting up to 2 hours

Same here.
Al Fahker I use 1 whole coal and a half coal on a standard Mya, Tangiers I use 3 half coals on a small Tangiers phunnel.
(All CCN or CH nats)

I hope thats a large phunnel you're using or some very very low heat coals.

If thats the case, then yea, that makes sense. But I can't fathom having 4-5 coals on any bowl other than a large

[SweetNut]

you wouldnt even be able to see the foil... lol

For Nak or AF, I do two coco nats on a Egyptian bowl.

For Tangiers, I do two coco nats on my mini phunnel, or three on my small phunnel... Or I do halves, with three halves on the mini, four on the small.

for sb on a small egyptian i throw on two coco's and rotate around the edges regularly. Smooth smoke for at least an hour

I think of Jap coals like Easy-Lites and Golden Canaries as low heat and to some extent Exotcias. But that sounds right for no Tangiers shisha
