pre-make 1 piece of aluminum foil with a 1/4″ hole in it

after lighting and placing the coal on the foil, dome the premade foil over the the lite coal with the hole directly over the coal and seal around the bowl of the burner. this will stoke the coal.

Gotta love hookah talk. Ive used this method before. I usually have to do this with the stronger, drier tobaccos, like the Nakhla tobaccos, or the apple flavor of some brands. It's nice too for adjusting the burn. As the tobacco starts to smolder out, you can move the coals in and adjust it to your needs. Thanks for the comments!! Gotta love hookah talk.
