HOOKAH CHARCOAL
Hookah coals are the heart of any shisha session, providing the heat to unlock and maximize the flavors and create those satisfying clouds. Coconut coals, derived from coconut shells, are a popular choice among enthusiasts due to their consistent heat output and minimal ash production. Among the various options available, coconut coal, derived from coconut shells, stands out as a highly popular and recommended choice for hookah enthusiasts today.
Selecting the best hookah coals for you is vital, as they can greatly influence your overall smoking experience. With Hookah Vault, you don’t need to worry on what hookah coal you should use, here’s a guide on how to choose the right one!
- Flat Coals: These rectangular coals offer a shorter burn time, making them ideal for brief sessions. They are generally affordable and easy to use with hookah foil. However, they may not be suitable for all heat management systems.
Flat coals usually have consistent width and density, and quality that can vary depending on the brand. It regulates heat effectively and controls the weight on the foil to lower the risk of excessive tobacco burning. - Cubed Coals: Considered the gold standard, cubed coals offer consistent heat and a longer burn time. Their stable shape ensures even heating, making them ideal for various bowl sizes. Rotating the cubes during the session maximizes heat distribution and extends the smoking duration.
Cubed coals give the controlled heat requirement for many modern tobaccos, which have higher moisture content. Unlike other charcoal shapes, cubes can be managed by rotating them, resulting in a prolonged smoking session. With their reliability, ability to generate consistent heat, and convenient size for handling, cubed coals are expected to maintain their popularity as the go-to choice for shisha enthusiasts in the foreseeable future. - Small Cubed Coals: These offer a good balance of heat and burn time, while being lightweight and gentle on the foil. They are a great option for those seeking a longer session than flat coals but without the time commitment of larger cubes.
Its main feature and advantage?- being lightweight, they don't exert pressure on the foil, preventing it from sagging. This ensures the shisha tobacco doesn't get singed prematurely. Also, these coals don't impart their taste onto the heated tobacco, allowing the smoker to savor the full flavor of their chosen shisha blend. - Silver Tab Coals: These Japanese bamboo-based coals provide a low to medium heat level, ideal for those seeking a more subtle smoking experience.
To light the Silver Tab Coal effectively, the best method is to use a pre-heated burner. Although they won't take as long as natural coconut coals to ignite, placing them on a pre-heated burner ensures a fast and even distribution of heat, typically taking 2-3 minutes at most. Take a closer look at these hookah coals and experience how they can elevate your setup, providing you with a lengthy and flavorful smoking session. - Quick Light Coals: These convenient coals ignite quickly, making them ideal for those seeking a fast setup. However, they may not offer the same longevity or flavor neutrality as other options.
These coals are called "quick" because they light up fast and are convenient to use. However, they have some limitations. They may not last as long as other types of coals, and different brands might affect the flavor differently. So, depending on the brand you choose, you might notice some differences in taste when using these quick light coals.
