Oblako Bowl Phunnel M Red - handmade ceramic shisha tobacco bowl

Oblako Bowl Phunnel M Red - handmade ceramic hookah tobacco head

The Oblako Bowl Phunnel M in red is a handmade ceramic hookah tobacco head from Russia. It is made of white ceramic with a red enamel coating. Each head comes directly from the Oblako workshop and is hand-shaped. This means that no two heads are exactly alike: small differences in color and shape are normal and part of the craftsmanship.

Oblako is known for precise craftsmanship. The red version stands out and contrasts beautifully with a dark or neutral hookah vase.

What makes the Phunnel M special?

The main difference from a regular tobacco head is the phunnel hole. A standard head has several small holes in the bottom. A phunnel head has one large opening in the middle that rises like a crater. This crater retains moisture and flavor. They don't drip down the stem, but remain in the head. This keeps the smoke richer and extends the shisha session.

The Phunnel M has a width of approximately 7.5 cm and a height of approximately 12 cm. The depth of the tobacco chamber is approximately 1.3 cm. This space holds 20 to 22 grams of shisha tobacco, enough for a session of at least an hour and a half. The ceramic material conducts heat well and evenly. This ensures a stable temperature in the head, keeping the flavor consistent from start to finish.

Who is the Oblako Phunnel M for?

The Oblako Bowl Phunnel M is suitable for anyone serious about shisha who wants to invest in a good ceramic hookah tobacco head. You don't have to be an expert. Beginners who want to start with good material also often choose Oblako. The head forgives small errors in heat distribution better than cheaper alternatives.

Do you already have shisha experience and want longer sessions with more smoke and deeper flavor? Then the Phunnel M is a logical choice. The larger capacity of 20-22 grams means you'll need to refill less often. This also makes it suitable for use when multiple people are smoking at the same time.

The red version attracts attention on the table. If you enjoy preparing shisha for friends or family, this head makes a good impression.

Setup and use with your hookah

Place the Oblako Phunnel M on the stem of your shisha hookah. Use a rubber gasket so the head is secure and no air leaks. Loosely fill the head with 20 to 22 grams of shisha tobacco. Do not pack tobacco tightly: air must be able to circulate. Let the tobacco come just below the rim, not above it.

Cover the head with aluminum foil or use a kaloud or metal chimney. A kaloud has the advantage that you can manage the coals more easily and the heat remains better distributed. Poke small holes in the foil if you choose that method, so the heat can pass through well.

Place your shisha coals on the foil or in the kaloud. Start with two or three hookah natural coals. Let the head warm up for a minute or two before you take a puff. This prevents a bitter or burnt taste at the beginning of the session.

The right coals for the Oblako Phunnel M

Coconut coals work best with a ceramic head like the Oblako Phunnel M. They burn long, evenly, and give off little flavor. Good options are Tom Coco shisha coals, Black Coco coals or Cocowawa shisha coals. Use a shisha coal burner to fully ignite the coals before placing them on the head. Half-burnt coals give an unpleasant taste and less smoke.

Avoid quick-lighting coals with ceramic heads. They get too hot too quickly and negatively affect the taste. With natural coals, you get the most out of the Oblako Phunnel M.

Cleaning and maintenance

Rinse the Oblako Phunnel M with warm water after use. Let it cool down completely first: hot ceramic in cold water can crack. Use a soft brush for the inside. Then let the head dry thoroughly before storing it. Handle it with care: ceramic breaks if dropped hard. Well-maintained, it will last for years.

Complete your shisha session

A good tobacco head is the basis, but there are more parts that make the session better. Use a good hookah hose for a smooth draw. Choose a silicone hookah hose if you want easy cleaning. Add a molasses catcher between the head and stem to keep the stem clean.

The Oblako Phunnel M pairs well with popular shisha flavors. Choose a flavor that suits a longer session, as the head has capacity for 90 minutes or more. Check out the assortment of shisha tobacco for all available flavors.
