Na Grani HMD: the heating controller for Hookah from Russia

Le Na Grani est un tout nouveau dispositif de chauffe conçu avant tout pour une chicha avec préparation Russe. En effet, le système de chauffe Na Grani est un dispositif entièrement pensé et fabriqué en Russie. Vendu présenté dans une élégante boite en bois brut, le Na Grani HMD offre une première impression très favorable. Tout d’abord, par son poids. En effet, ce dernier pèse pas moins de 163 grammes ! Il est le système de chauffe pour chicha le plus lourd de sa catégorie. La raison ? Le Nagrani est directement taillé par une machine dans un bloc de stainless steel, contrairement aux autres dispositifs similaires type kaloud moulés à partir de métal fondu.

This design offers many advantages: It is a very good conductor of heat, does not rust, and does not oxidise over time. However, it will have the disadvantage of heating up very strongly if you do not prepare and manage the heating properly. But don't panic! Mistersmoke is here to explain all the techniques you need to adopt to make a success of your Russian preparation with Na Grani!

Technical presentation of Heat Management Device Na Grani

This system consists of twenty holes on the underside. These holes ensure that the heat is distributed evenly over your Bowl. The edges are made with a notched groove to prevent the device from slipping: This "gripping" function is particularly interesting and well thought out for Bowls . No more accidents with falling coal during the session!

Another special feature is the absence of a bonnet. This feature is often found on Russian heating systems.

Now that the introductions have been made, let's get on with the test! 

But first of all, what is a Hookah Russian prep school? As its name suggests, it is a preparation of Hookah which comes straight from... Russia! This country has a very strong community of smokers at Hookah and many specialised fairs take place there every year, including the famous Hookah fair in St Petersburg.

The Russians are known to be fond of powerful sessions. The feeling is certainly a bit strong but it is also very interesting if the preparation is perfectly mastered. Believe us, you will find it hard to do without!

Only one type of tobacco is allowed: black tobacco such as Adalya Black or Darkside. These tobaccos are much richer in nicotine than other tobaccos at Hookah. This is because they are made from unwashed tobacco leaves to preserve the nicotine in the leaf.

For charcoal, we recommend 26 mm diameter cube charcoal such as Cododalya or Zocomo, which you can find on our website.

How do I arrange my coals? The management of the heat of the coals is essential to the success of this preparation. Certain rules must be respected: In general, 2+1 or 2+2 is used: 2 coals one on top of the other on the inside and 1 or 2 coals on the sides. This method of placing the coals is specific to the Russian preparation.

Attention ! N’utilisez pas n’importe quel modèle de foyer à chicha. Préférez un foyer traditionnel en terre cuite. Nos préférés ? Le foyer Solaris, le DON Turkish ou encore le foyer OTTO T-One.

Now you know everything about this preparation technique and about this Heat Management Device which, we are sure, will convince you! Now it's your turn to play!
