How much shisha tobacco does this bowl hold?
The Samsaris Kore bowl has a recommended capacity of 15–20g of shisha tobacco, depending on your packing method. This is an ideal amount for optimal flavor and cloud production.

Which HMD works best with the Samsaris Kore?
It is optimized for the Kaloud Lotus® III but also works perfectly with the Lotus® I+ and Lotus® II, as well as most other third-party heat management devices.

Why choose ceramic over aluminum or glass?
Ceramic bowls retain heat longer, deliver smoother flavor, and are highly durable. They provide superior heat distribution and are ideal for extended, flavorful sessions with consistent performance.
-
What's the difference between the Samsaris Kore and a traditional clay or phunnel bowl?
Unlike traditional bowls, the Samsaris Kore features a precision-engineered ceramic core with integrated silicone grommet, designed specifically for HMD use. This provides superior heat retention, cleaner flavor, and eliminates the need for separate grommets or bowl adjustments.

How do I clean the Samsaris Kore?
Let the bowl cool completely, then rinse with warm water and gently scrub with a soft brush. Avoid soap or abrasive cleaners to protect the ceramic finish and maintain optimal performance.
