Made from untreated, unglazed natural clay, it reacts exactly as you want: it stores heat and releases it slowly and evenly. This ensures that your shisha filling heats through well without burning. The result is a full, even smoke that lasts a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a plug-in tobacco bowl, which means it fits hookahs with a plug-in connection. This type of connection is mainly found on traditional Turkish shishas. If you have such a hookah, this bowl fits directly without an adapter. No hassle, just plug and play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat makes this hookah tobacco bowl special\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot every tobacco bowl is the same. Clay naturally has very different properties than ceramic, glass, or silicone. These are the characteristics of the Tonkopf that make the difference:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e natural clay, untreated and unglazed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection type:\u003c\/strong\u003e plug-in system, fits Turkish hookahs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of holes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 holes in the bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 9.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 6 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eBowl diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 5 cm, depth approximately 2.2 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe five holes in the bottom ensure good airflow. Air rises evenly through the filling, contributing to a stable, constant smoke. The shallow bowl depth of 2.2 cm suits most shisha fillings and works perfectly with aluminum foil, a heat management device, or a chimney.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho is the Tonkopf clay bowl suitable for?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hookah tobacco bowl is primarily intended for people with a Turkish shisha with a plug-in connection. Think of models from brands like Khalil Mamoon or other traditional shishas. The plug-in connection is a different system than the screw thread connection you see on many modern hookahs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAre you an experienced shisha smoker who appreciates the traditional way of smoking? Then the Tonkopf is an excellent choice. The clay bowl gives a different feel than a glass or silicone bowl. It heats up slower, but once it's up to temperature, it stays that way for a long time. This makes it ideal for longer sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso check out the other \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-tabakskoppen\"\u003ehookah tobacco bowls\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/klei-en-stenen-tabakskoppen\"\u003eclay and stone tobacco bowls\u003c\/a\u003e in our assortment for more options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage and setup of the tobacco bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clay bowl requires a little more patience than other materials. Building up heat takes a few extra minutes, but after that, everything runs smoothly. Do not overfill the bowl and leave the rim free for sufficient air circulation. Cover with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/aluminium-folie-en-prikkers\"\u003ealuminum foil\u003c\/a\u003e or use a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/kaloud-en-metalen-chimney\"\u003eheat management device\u003c\/a\u003e. Use 2 to 3 \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-en-shisha-natuurkolen\"\u003ehookah coals\u003c\/a\u003e and give the bowl 3 to 5 minutes to heat up properly. Then insert the bowl directly into the shaft of your Turkish shisha. Is the fit a bit loose? Then use a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-rubbers\"\u003ehookah grommet\u003c\/a\u003e to prevent air loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaintenance and cleaning\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClay is porous, which gives it its good properties but also requires different care. Rinse the bowl with warm water after use, no soap, as clay will absorb it. Carefully scrape away burnt residue with a soft brush. Let the bowl dry completely before storing it. Do not use the bowl in the dishwasher. A well-maintained clay bowl will last a long time, and some smokers even 'season' it over coals before first use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe right coals for a clay bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a clay bowl like the Tonkopf, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waterpijp-en-shisha-natuurkolen\"\u003enatural coals\u003c\/a\u003e work best. They burn longer and give off more even heat than quick-light coals. This suits the slow heat absorption of clay. Quick-light coals are too hot and can damage the bowl with prolonged use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood choices are coconut shell coals from brands like \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/black-coco-shisha-kolen-waterpijp\"\u003eBlack Coco\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/tom-coco-shisha-waterpijp-kolen\"\u003eTom Coco\u003c\/a\u003e, or \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/babylon-shisha-kolen-charcoal\"\u003eBabylon Shisha Coals\u003c\/a\u003e.
