Kong Turkish Boy Blue – 14–18 g Ceramic, HMD Fit

Kong Turkish Boy Blue bowl — 14–18 g ceramic for clean, flavour-forward sessions

What it is, why it helps & how it works: This is Kong’s Turkish-style ceramic bowl in a blue hand-finish. The medium-thick clay bed spreads heat evenly over a 14–18 g pack, so clouds build smoothly without harsh spikes. Run it with tight foil and an AOT Provost, or drop on a Kaloud-style HMD — either way you get steady heat and a pure flavour pathway that doesn’t ghost like silicone.

What sets it apart

• Flavour stays true because the ceramic is kiln-fired at high temperature (≈1200 °C), resisting odour soak and ghosting.
• Even heat bed from a medium-thick clay base tuned for a 14–18 g load — balanced clouds with fewer hot spots.
• Quick start-up — with fully lit coals it stabilises in about a minute, ideal for simple, repeatable set-ups.
• HMD ready — fits Kaloud-style and Provost-style heat managers; foil sessions stay consistent too.
• Handcrafted finish — each Blue bowl has a unique glaze pattern; no two look identical.

Fit & compatibility

• HMD fit: Kaloud-style (Lotus family) and Provost over foil.
• Coal plan: 2–3 × 26 mm cubes (or quality flats), adjusted to blend and room temp.
• Tobaccos: Optimised for blonde and dark-leaf packs.

How to dial it in

• Foil: Pack level with the rim; foil tight; start 2 cubes on the edge, add a 3rd after 5–7 min if needed.
• HMD: Normal-density pack, light gap to the screen; crack the lid briefly for heat bumps.
• Coal care: Rotate every 6–8 min; purge slowly to clear without over-cooling.

Craft & performance

• Airway response: Smooth, low-resistance draw typical of Turkish bowls.
• Heat curve: Medium-high retention for longer, flavour-stable pulls.
• Finish: Hand-decorated blue ceramic; durable, easy to rinse clean.

Care & upkeep

• Always let the bowl cool before rinsing — avoid thermal shock.
• Rinse with warm water; use a soft brush only (no harsh abrasives).
• Dry fully before storage; avoid impacts on hard surfaces.

FAQ

• Does it fit Kaloud or Provost? Yes — both styles work well; adjust coal count to your blend.
• What load performs best? Most mixes are happiest at 14–18 g; go lighter for blonde, denser for dark-leaf.
• Why pick ceramic over silicone? Kiln-fired ceramic resists flavour ghosting and handles steady heat better.
