{"product_id":"kaloud-lotus-1-niris-zwart-heat-management-device","title":"Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris Black - Heat Management Device for Hookah Tobacco Head","description":"\u003ch2\u003eHeat management that truly works for your hookah\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris is a heat management device (HMD) from the Kaloud brand. This device completely replaces aluminum foil and regulates the heat from your coals on your hookah tobacco bowl. The Niris is the improved version of the original Kaloud Lotus and is more user-friendly in every way. The diameter of the base is 7.5 cm, allowing it to fit on almost all standard shisha tobacco bowls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe device consists of two parts: a base where you place the coals, and an adjustable lid. The base has six side vents for constant airflow. The lid has a handle that allows you to quickly adjust the ventilation. More ventilation means more heat. Less ventilation cools things down a bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBetter than aluminum foil\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFoil tears, poking holes takes time, and heat distribution is uneven. If the coals are placed incorrectly, your tobacco burns quickly, and the hookah tastes bitter. The Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris solves this problem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the Lotus, heat distributes evenly over your \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-tabakskoppen\"\u003ehookah tobacco bowl\u003c\/a\u003e. Your coals burn more stably and longer. The flavor of your shisha tobacco comes through purer because no foil is baked along. After each session, you don't need to grab a new roll of foil. The Lotus lasts a long time and simply does its job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKaloud offers a 20-year warranty on the Niris. In case of a manufacturing defect, you will receive a replacement. That kind of warranty is rarely seen with hookah accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to use the Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris step-by-step?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGetting started is easy. Fill your \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/shisha-tabakskoppen\"\u003eshisha tobacco bowl\u003c\/a\u003e as you normally would. Place the Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris on top, with the base on the bowl. Light your coals with a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-kolenbrander\"\u003ehookah coal burner\u003c\/a\u003e and place three to four glowing 26 mm coconut coals in the base of the Lotus. Close the lid and wait two to three minutes until the system reaches temperature. Then you can start smoking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuring the session, adjust the heat by rotating the lid. Do you notice your shisha getting too hot or acquiring a slightly burnt taste? Close the ventilation slightly. Do you want more vapor and draw? Open the lid further. With a few practice sessions, you'll quickly find the setting that works best for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways use \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-en-shisha-natuurkolen\"\u003enatural hookah coals\u003c\/a\u003e made of coconut in the Lotus. Coconut coals burn evenly, last long, and don't give a chemical aftertaste to your shisha tobacco. Quick-lighting coals also work, but they burn hotter and shorter, which doesn't benefit the flavor as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho is the Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris suitable for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis accessory works excellently for both beginners and experienced shisha smokers. You no longer need skill in poking foil. You no longer have to guess whether your coals are placed correctly. Heat management is immediately noticeable: turn the lid, feel the result.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Lotus also works excellently with steam stones such as \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/shisha-tabak-shiazo-steam-stones\"\u003eShiazo steam stones\u003c\/a\u003e. Steam stones need a bit more heat than loose tobacco, and the Lotus gives you the control to dose that precisely. This way, you also get the maximum result from steam stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAre you smoking with multiple people? Then the stable heat of the Lotus is extra pleasant. A longer session with consistent quality from start to finish. No heat spikes, no cooling down halfway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Kaloud Lotus 1+ Niris requires little maintenance. After use, let it cool completely before handling it. Then rinse it under warm water and wipe clean with a soft cloth or sponge. Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel brushes, or harsh cleaning agents. These will damage the surface finish and shorten its lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you do this after every session, the Lotus will look good year after year. The materials are sturdy and last a long time with normal use. With Kaloud's 20-year warranty in your back pocket, you won't have any worries for a long time anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the right coals and tobacco bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Lotus performs best when combined with the right products. Choose \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-en-shisha-natuurkolen\"\u003enatural hookah coals\u003c\/a\u003e made of coconut. Brands like \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/tom-coco-shisha-waterpijp-kolen\"\u003eTom Coco\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/black-coco-shisha-kolen-waterpijp\"\u003eBlack Coco\u003c\/a\u003e fit perfectly into the base and provide a stable session.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the tobacco bowl, the Niris works best on a wide, flat bowl. A phunnel or vortex bowl gives the best results because the heat is evenly distributed over the surface.
