Shaman XXL 28 mm Charcoal — long-burn, low-ash coconut cubes
We choose Shaman XXL 28 mm coconut coals when we want steady, lounge-grade heat without babysitting the bowl. Pressed from 100% Indonesian coconut shell, these dense cubes hold stable heat for up to 90 minutes, keeping flavour clear and the session consistent.
Why it stands out
- Extended heat, fewer swaps: large 28 mm cubes sustain up to 90 minutes of stable output.
- Cleaner flavour: ultra-low ash keeps bowls tidy and taste untainted.
- No fuss lighting: no smell, no sparks once fully ashed.
- Durable density: firm press resists crumbling and maintains even burn on the bowl.
- Natural & efficient: made from 100% coconut shell — no chemical fillers.
Setup & tips
- HMD: start with 2 cubes; add a 3rd if your bowl or pack needs more heat.
- Foil: begin with 3 cubes spaced at the rim; rotate every 10–15 minutes.
- Lighting: heat on a coil or purpose coal burner until fully ashed on all sides (no black spots) before use. A dedicated coal burner gives the best results.
Performance
Expect a firm, steady heat curve that keeps clouds dense while protecting flavour. Draw remains smooth with minimal temperature dips during rotations.
Maintenance & care
- Store coals in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
- Always light to full ash before placing on the bowl; never use indoor kitchen stovetops.
- Allow coals to cool fully before disposal; never douse with water while hot.
