{"product_id":"aladin-coco-27mm-shisha-kolen-1kg","title":"Aladin Coco 27MM Shisha Charcoal 1KG - Natural Coconut Charcoal for Hookah","description":"\u003cp\u003eAladin Coco 27MM is coconut charcoal pressed into 27 mm cubes and sold by the kilo. The larger cube is the reason to choose this size: more mass means a longer burn, which suits big bowls and evenings that run past the two-hour mark. Like all proper coconut charcoal it brings no smell or taste of its own to the session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere the 27 mm size earns its keep\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBigger cubes hold heat longer, so you swap coals less often and the temperature stays steadier through the middle of a session. That matters most with phunnel and large clay bowls, where a small cube burns out before the tobacco has given everything it has. For standard bowls the 25 mm version is the more practical pick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLighting them properly\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese need a burner, not a lighter. Set the cubes on an electric or gas \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-kolenbrander\"\u003echarcoal burner\u003c\/a\u003e and wait until they glow orange on every side with a thin grey rim — rushing this step is the most common cause of a harsh first draw.

Buying by the kilo is simply cheaper per session than small packs, which is why regulars keep a box on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eStorage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCoconut charcoal only has one weakness, and that is damp. Reseal the packaging after every use and keep it off cold floors and out of sheds. Dry charcoal lights faster, burns longer and produces less ash — three problems solved by one habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePairing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis charcoal works with any bowl material, clay or ceramic.
