Shaman 28mm XXL Big Cubes Coals – Long, Low-Ash Burn

Shaman coconut cube charcoal — XXL 28 mm size for long, steady heat

What it is, why it helps, how it works, why get it: These are extra-large 28 mm coconut-shell charcoal cubes from Shaman. The larger cube holds more heat for longer, so you swap coals less and keep flavour stable. Light them fully, place 2–3 on your foil or suitable open-top HMD, and you’ll get a consistent, low-ash burn with no sparks, no odour and no fillers. If you want fewer rotations and longer sessions, this is the size to reach for.

Shaman XXL 28 mm cubes are cut for maximum thermal mass and a clean heat curve. Sourced from Indonesian coconut shells and pressed without chemical fillers, they deliver lounge-level performance at home. Expect a dense, even burn that keeps mixes smooth and cloud-forward without flavour bleed.

What sets it apart

• Long, even heat from the XXL 28 mm cube — the larger mass holds temperature steadier over extended sessions.
• Clean coconut-shell blend with no fillers, no sparks, low ash — reliable heat without off-notes.
• Built for fewer coal swaps — ideal for lengthy mixes or back-to-back bowls when you want less fuss.

Fit & compatibility

• Foil setups: typically 2–3 cubes, edge-to-edge.
• HMDs: best with open-top or larger-format devices that accept 28 mm cubes. Tight-lid, compact HMDs generally suit 26 mm.

How to dial it in

• Fully light until all faces are glowing before placing on the bowl.
• Start with 2 cubes; add or rotate after 5–7 minutes if the mix needs more drive.
• Use brief lid lifts (HMD) or ash taps (foil) to ease heat if the bowl pushes toward harshness.

Craft & performance

• Stable heat curve that ramps clouds quickly, then settles into a smooth flavour window.
• Low-ash behaviour keeps screens/foil clear longer and reduces flavour dulling.

Care & upkeep

• Store dry and ventilated; reseal the box after opening.
• Use a quality burner until fully lit; never light with fuel-based lighters.

FAQ

• 28 mm vs 26 mm — which should I choose? Pick 28 mm for longer, steadier heat and fewer swaps; pick 26 mm for tighter HMD fits and faster heat adjustments.
• Will these fit my HMD? Most open-top or larger HMDs accept 28 mm. Compact, closed-lid HMDs typically need 26 mm cubes.
