4 Steps to Using Foil Correctly for a Better Shisha Experience

Using shisha foil correctly is a crucial step in enhancing your smoking experience. By following these four simple steps, you can achieve a much more satisfying session.

Step 1: Wrap.
Take one sheet of our professional shisha foil and place it over the bowl filled with tobacco, dull side down (the dull side has better heat absorption properties). Pull it tight so it’s drumhead-smooth and secure it around the rim.

Step 2: Poke Holes.
This is the most critical technique. Using a toothpick or a dedicated poker, create a pattern of uniform, dense holes across the entire surface of the foil. This ensures heat penetrates evenly. Avoid making holes that are too large or too sparse, as this can cause the tobacco to burn in spots.

Step 3: Place Coals.
Position your fully lit natural coals on the center of the foil. Usually, 1-2 pieces are sufficient, depending on your bowl size and personal preference.

Step 4: Enjoy.
Allow a moment for the heat to gently bake the tobacco through the holes. Then, start your session. You’ll notice a smoother smoke and more defined flavors.

This small change in your routine will make a world of difference.
