Phunnel heads

What is a Shisha Phunnel?

A phunnel head , also known as a single hole head , is a special type of shisha head that has a large, central hole. This design offers numerous advantages, especially if you prefer moist and fine tobacco. Unlike multi-hole heads, where the tobacco is placed around several small holes, in a phunnel head the tobacco is in a depot around the central hole. This prevents the holes from clogging and the draft always remains optimal. The molasses does not flow out as quickly, which means the tobacco stays moist and smokable for longer and your shisha stays cleaner because less molasses flows out due to the design.

Advantages of Phunnel Heads

• Liquid does not flow away but remains in the depot, which means that the tobacco does not dry out so quickly .
• The hot air does not have to pass directly through the tobacco, which results in a great draft and protects the tobacco.
• Less contamination as molasses no longer flows through the shisha.
• Fine tobacco is also easier to smoke as it does not burn as quickly.
• Very moist tobacco can be used more effectively without clogging the holes.
• Compatibility with aluminum foil, HMD (Heat Management Device) or a chimney attachment .
• With a MOD you can produce even more smoke. A MOD is available in many materials such as clay, stone, glass or even ceramic.
• Phunnel heads are usually glazed to prevent the molasses from seeping in.
• Available in different colors to match your shisha.
• More intense taste and higher smoke development because it is smoked hotter.
• Longer smoking time because the tobacco stays moist longer.

Tips and tricks for using phunnel heads

• An insider tip for Shisha Phunnels and MODs that proved their worth during the Phunnel hype 10 years ago: They direct the hot air from the coal through the entire tobacco and use the tobacco effectively.
• You can place the MOD in the phunnel at the end of the smoking session to smoke the tobacco at the bottom of the phunnel that was not reached by the heat.
• Build the phunnel with contact : Build the tobacco high enough so that the nubs of the HMD touch the tobacco slightly. This will give you the best result.
• A chimney attachment for a phunnel can ideally only be used in conjunction with a MOD, otherwise the air is drawn through the tube through the phunnel hole and the tobacco does not receive effective heat.

Use these tips and tricks to optimize your smoking experience with a phunnel bowl and enjoy every smoking session to the fullest.
