Two types of bowls - what is the difference
Before choosing a model, it is important to understand the difference between the types. The Upgrade Form line includes classic bowls and phunnel bowls - two fundamentally different approaches to tobacco heating.
| Parameter | Classic | Phunnel |
|---|---|---|
| Holes | 6-7 across the bottom | 1 central on a spire |
| Juice protection | No | Yes - juice does not drip into the stem |
| Best tobacco | Dry and medium moisture | Moist and oily |
| Packing | Any density | Dense - optimal |
| Models in the line | Classic, Big, Magma | Phunnel, New Phunnel, Iron, Flora, Terra, Sirena, Turtle |

How to choose an Upgrade Form bowl for your style
Choosing a clay bowl depends on three things: tobacco type, session length, and number of people. Here is a quick guide:
Solo short session 45-60 minutes - take Turtle (10 mm depth, 155 g) or Flora (150 g, quick heating). Small filling, tobacco saving, precise temperature control.
Standard session 1-1.5 hours - Classic, Terra, Iron or Sirena are optimal. Balanced volume, stable heating, compatibility with most HMDs.
Long session or group - choose Big (260 g, 7 holes) or Phunnel (240 g, 17 mm depth). Maximum filling volume and high thermal inertia for the entire session.
Moist and oily tobaccos - phunnel type only: Phunnel, New Phunnel, Iron, Terra, Sirena, Flora, Turtle. The central spire hole prevents juice from dripping into the stem and spoiling the water in the base.
Why a clay bowl is better than a silicone one
Fired clay is the traditional and cleanest material for a hookah bowl. It does not melt, does not release odors when heated, and does not distort the taste of tobacco. Ceramics gradually accumulate heat from hookah charcoal and evenly transfer it to the filling - without sharp temperature spikes. Silicone bowls are convenient for transport but do not provide such a clean flavor. A clay bowl is the choice for those who value the true taste of tobacco, not just smoke.
Frequently asked questions
How is the Upgrade Form clay bowl different from other manufacturers?
Upgrade Form is a Ukrainian manufacturer with a wide line of 10 models in two types. Key differences: a variety of geometries for different smoking styles, affordable price with good clay firing quality, and a wide selection of colors in most models.
Does a new clay bowl need any preparation before first use?
For unglazed earthenware bowls, it is recommended to soak in water for 20-30 minutes before the first session. For glazed models, 1-2 test sessions with a small amount of tobacco are enough - the bowl will "open up" and deliver better flavor afterwards.
How to properly care for a clay bowl?
After each session, let the bowl cool completely. Rinse with warm water without detergents using a soft brush - chemicals get absorbed into the clay pores and affect the flavor. Do not subject the bowl to sudden temperature changes: do not put a hot bowl into cold water.
Which bowl should I choose for my first hookah?
For beginners, the best choice is Classic or Terra. Classic is easy to set up: six holes provide stable airflow with any pack. Terra is a good first introduction to the phunnel type: medium weight, standard dimensions, forgives small mistakes in temperature management.
