Moose Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Sometimes I'll be smoking for a bit, and after a while there'll be this annoying bump. What's the cause, and how can I avoid it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeDave Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Overpacking, plain and simple. Don't add as much tobacco into the bowl before smoking. I would mention however that if the bump only bothers you because of how it looks, don't bother with it. If you have a method of smoking that produces good clouds, good flavor and a long lasting session, you're farther along than a lot of others, and should put "weird bump on top of foil" at the bottom of your worries.

Moose Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Yeah, it's usually a good smoke, bump or no. It was just a minor annoyance. I do tend to overpack the bowl, because it's just a tiny hookah and I don't like how small the bowl is >_> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheyCallMeDave Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I would suggest investing in a new bowl then! If you're looking forsometihng simple, an Egyptian bowl would do you well. They hold a decent amount of shisha, and will last long. But a great bowl to buy is a tangiers small phunnel. It keeps the juices in the bowl in a sort of shisha moat, making the flavor stronger and the session longer. The egyptian runs ofr about 6=-7 bucks, where as the small phunnel runs in the high teens.

[/quote] What dave said cant go wrong with a phunnel or a Egyptian.Also if you dont wanna spend more for shipping than just one bowl as is the case most of the time alot of smoke shops carry modbowls i love the mod bowl for medium length sessions sessions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boludo Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 tobacco expands with the heat... if you want to avoid, then pack less tobacco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
