cafesaden Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 so, for the first time in a couple months, we decided to use a small clay egyptian crappy bowl instead of the phunnel because we had just used it and didn't feel like cleaning it. long story short, we were getting bigger hits, more flavor, and a good 45-1hr of consistent flavor....maybe I am packing the phunnel wrong? okay I am using:Small Tangiers PhunnelScallis ModStarbuzzReynolds regular foilStargate Natural coal2 rings of med-large holes and a few extra to fill in gapsI haven't been able to get this phunnel working like when I first started using it.... The only difference is that I wasn't using a scalis mod and I wasn't using starbuzz.But, the first time I used the scallis mod it was amazing. So I am ruling that out. Could it be starbuzz?HELP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unleashtheclown Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 id try taking the mod off and see if that works, but ive never used the mod before, it sounds like ur poking the holes right, starbuzz works fine in the phunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djbomberto Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 just one big hole in the middle, and small ones around the edge of the bowl. and sometimes if its not hitting right, i would put 5 holes in a circle. near the big circle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafesaden Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 how about airspace? how tight should it be packed? loosely? filled to top of phunnel or to the top of the bowl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafesaden Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 i was always tought to put an airspace. doesnt burn as easliy IMO, but takes longer to get hitting. but, with the phunnel, and all the juices staying put i was considering eliminating the airspace. I just packed a bowl of white peach starbuzz with my best hitting hookah, so I'll see.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvansLight Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 It has been a while since ive even smoked... but XDI found the starbuzz doesn't like the funnel bowl all that much. I can't tell ya what it is about it, but starbuzz i find tends to work better in regular bowls. Could be the sheer amount of juice in starbuzz. I found to get it to smoke right i had to heat it to a higher temp, which meant getting far to close to the temp. at which you actually start to burn the tobacco. But again, its been a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
