GIMEG Butane Gas Cartridge 190 Gram - Refill Gas for Gas Coal Starter

Butane gas for your gas-powered coal burner

A shisha session starts with good, hot coals. And hot coals start with a burner that works. The GIMEG Butane Gas Canister of 190 grams is the fuel for your gas-powered coal burner. No gas, no fire; no fire, no coals; no coals, no shisha. It's that simple. This gas canister ensures that your burner is always ready, so you don't have to worry about an empty tank at the wrong moment.

The canister comes full. You can use it immediately to refill your gas burner. No preparation, no hassle. Click, fill, burn.

What's in this canister?

The canister contains 190 grams of pure butane gas. That's enough for about an hour and a half of continuous burning, depending on the flame you set and the room temperature. In cold weather, a gas burner consumes slightly more than in warm conditions. But for an evening of shisha with friends, a full canister will easily suffice.

Butane gas burns clean and produces a stable flame. That's exactly what you need to properly light natural shisha coals. An even flame provides even heat, and that translates into the taste of your shisha session.

What do you use this gas canister for?

This canister is designed to refill gas burners. Think of a shisha gas-powered coal burner that you use to light natural coals. Such burners have a refillable gas tank. When it's empty, you refill it with this butane gas canister. This is quick and easy via the valve at the bottom of the burner.

In addition to gas-powered coal burners, you can also use this canister for other refillable gas burners, butane lighters, and similar devices with a butane inlet. Always check if the valve of your device fits a standard butane canister.

This gas canister is not intended for electric coal burners or propane kitchen burners. Only use it for devices that specifically run on butane gas.

How do you refill a gas burner?

Refilling is simple. Place your shisha coal burner upside down, so the valve points upwards. Press the butane gas canister, with its opening facing down, onto the valve. Hold it for a few seconds. You'll hear the gas flowing in. Once the canister is done, place the burner upright and wait a moment before lighting it, so any excess gas evaporates.

Some refilling tips:

• Only refill in a well-ventilated area. Butane gas is heavier than air and accumulates near the ground.
• Do not smoke or have open flames nearby during refilling.
• Only refill once the burner has completely cooled down.
• Store the canister in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

What coals do you use with it?

A gas burner is fastest and easiest with natural shisha coals. These are the thick, round or square coals that need to be fully glowing before use. They provide long-lasting, even heat and do not affect the taste of your shisha. Place the coals on the burner, turn on the flame, and wait about 8 to 12 minutes until they glow orange on all sides.

You can also consider easy-light coals, but you don't need to heat those with a burner. For those who smoke shisha regularly and want the best taste, natural coals are the better choice. And for natural coals, you need a good burner, and for that burner, you need this gas canister.

Complete your shisha session

Gas and coals are the foundation. But for a good shisha session, you need more. Consider a reliable shisha coal burner if you don't have one yet. Or an aluminum foil poker set to properly cover your tobacco bowl. And don't forget your hookah tongs to safely move the hot coals.
