Stuie Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 So i was looking again since I am down to my last box. It's like no one has Cube Coconut Coals anymore. A Couple places have the smaller boxes, but no one has the 108 Piece boxes. Only way to get them is order them direct? Did I miss something? Where's the love??? And if the title got Paula Cole stuck in your head, deal with it. Been stuck in my head during my weekend search for Cube Coconara and Coco Mayazas!

Skoozle Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I get my Coconaras from a somewhat local store. Haven't shopped online for coal in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 I don't mind ebay that's a bit steep for coals for me. I am dropping that much I will go buy HC out of Golden Canaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 I can send you a bunch of CCMs if you want, the local stores here still sell them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Just gotta settle for the 96-piece Mazayas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 I can buy direct from them at coco-nara.us shipping is pretty reasonable. I am just baffled why vendors have stopped carrying them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Wait, you're having trouble finding the Cocomazayas too? That's a shame, as that's my go-to coal... Although, I did find flat Coconaras here just a few miles from my house for $12, so I'm probably just going to buy those from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkman262 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 I used to use both cube and flat cocos but got better results from the flats. I read some reviews a long time ago about the difference in performance based on shape and it made sense that the flats would be better. Wish I could recall exactly what those reasons were but I'm sure a quick google search could help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, for a smaller bowl, you may want to use the cubes, because they are less surface area touching compared to flats. Therefore it may yield better results. So essentially you're using the shape of coal as a heat management tool. Some people even prefer to use the flats but stonehenge them (stand them up on their smallest sides). This is what I've been doing with my new Pico bowl- two flats stonehenged works much better than using two cube-shaped Cocomazayas. So it's just whatever works best. They're all good coals (CCN cubes, CCN flats, and CCM cubes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ih303 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 So tell me, sir... why do you like cubes? Is it because they roll off of bowls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoozle Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 That's how you know it's time for new ones. No more guess work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 Less direct surface area. I don't have to ash or move coals for at least 90 minutes. That's why I love cubes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRSX Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 I'm still getting plenty of coco mazaya cubes-108 count boxes from my local smoke shop for like $12. Need some Stuie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
