aluminum foil - 50 sheets

Aluminum foil for shisha - 50 sheets

When smoking a hookah, aluminum foil keeps the coals from touching the tobacco in the bowl directly. The foil spreads the heat evenly across the surface, so the tobacco burns more slowly and the smoke tastes smoother. Without foil, or a similar heat-resistant layer such as a kaloud, the tobacco would char far too quickly and the session would lose quality fast.

This pack contains 50 pre-cut sheets of aluminum foil, made specifically for use on a shisha bowl. Because the sheets are already cut to size, you no longer need to tear off and trim a loose roll of foil around the rim of the bowl. That saves time and avoids tears or uneven spots that can disrupt the airflow.

How to use

Stretch a sheet of foil tightly over the filled shisha bowl and press the edges down firmly, so no loose folds remain. Then use a needle or foil poker to puncture evenly spaced holes: too few holes restrict airflow and let the coals go out, too many can burn the tobacco too fast. Add the coals only once the foil has warmed up properly, for a more stable and longer-lasting session.

Storage

Keep unused sheets dry and at room temperature, preferably back in the packaging so they don't crease or get damaged before use.

Alongside this aluminum foil, Dutch-Smart also stocks other shisha essentials, such as coals, bowls and shisha tobacco, so you can order everything for a complete session in one go.
