Different Hookah Charcoal Options

Since shisha has only recently entered the Chinese market, many people are still unfamiliar with it, and even less familiar with many of its details.

Smoking shisha requires specialized charcoal, so what's the best choice? You can't just buy any charcoal; you need to choose the right one based on the size of your hookah.

Many people may not have paid much attention to this concept before, thinking it doesn't matter as long as it produces smoke.

However, a more observant observer will discover that this is far from the truth. Hookahs come in large, medium, and small sizes.

These different sizes require different bowl sizes, which in turn varies the amount of tobacco in the bowl, and thus the amount of heat generated.

Perhaps this has given you some insight.

Hookah charcoal comes in two sizes: 33mm and 40mm. These two sizes differ not only in size but also in thickness, and of course, in the amount of heat generated.

So, if you're using a small hookah, you can use 33mm charcoal. However, if you're using a medium or large bowl,

40mm charcoal is sufficient, as it generates enough heat to keep the tobacco in the bowl heated. If you still use 33mm charcoal, most of the tobacco in the bowl won't be fully burned,

which is a huge waste. If you're attentive enough, you'll notice that the lower half of the tobacco inside the bowl is still damp when you clean it.

Why is it damp? Think about it: dampness means the tobacco hasn't been fully dried, which is because the charcoal you're using isn't generating enough heat.

You may not have noticed this before, as I only recently discovered it. I hope sharing this article will be helpful.

In fact, many problems in life can be discovered and solved simply by observing. The key is whether you develop this good habit.

As the saying goes, "Details determine success or failure." Smoking shisha is all about achieving a certain state of mind.
