The Hexa is the high-output shape in the Cerberus Coco range — and this 10kg lounge box is the smartest way to buy it. Each hexagonal stick measures 22 mm across and 45 mm long, packing substantially more coconut shell material per piece than a standard 26mm cube. That means stronger sustained heat, longer burn time per coal, and fewer swaps mid-session. Normally $119.95 in retail packaging, the lounge box format brings it to $89.95 — same coal packed in clear bags inside a plain kraft carton instead of individual retail boxes.

Cerberus Coco Hexa Coconut Charcoal — High-Output Hex Coals at Lounge Pricing

Why This Charcoal

• More thermal mass per coal than a standard 26mm cube — the 45mm hexagonal stick holds significantly more material per piece, delivering stronger sustained heat and reducing how often you need to swap coals during a session.
• 80% fixed carbon for long, stable output — each coal holds its temperature and its structural integrity well into the session without crumbling or falling apart prematurely.
• 2.5% ash content — minimal residue keeps your tray cleaner, your airflow unobstructed, and your sessions running longer between maintenance.
• Hexagonal profile sits stable on foil and inside HMDs — six flat sides prevent rolling and provide consistent contact with the heating surface, distributing heat more evenly than round or irregular shapes.
• 100% natural Indonesian coconut shell with no chemical additives — clean-burning with no aftertaste, letting your shisha flavour come through unaltered.
• Lounge box format at $89.95 instead of $119.95 — identical coal, identical specs. The saving comes from bulk packaging in clear bags rather than individual retail cartons. The product does not change — only the box it ships in.

Fit and Compatibility

The Hexa works with traditional foil setups and most heat management devices. Its 22mm diameter fits comfortably inside Kaloud Lotus and similar HMDs, though the 45mm length means you will typically run two coals side by side rather than stacking. On foil, two hexagonal pieces deliver roughly the same coverage as three standard 26mm cubes, making heat management simpler with fewer pieces to rotate.

How to Use It

• Place two to three hexagonal pieces flat on a 1000W or higher electric charcoal burner. The longer shape benefits from a burner with a wide, flat coil.
• Heat for ten to fourteen minutes, flipping once at the halfway mark, until all sides are glowing evenly with a thin layer of grey ash.
• Transfer to your bowl or HMD using metal tongs. Handle with care — the longer shape can be unwieldy if rushed.
• Rotate or reposition coals every fifteen to twenty minutes during the session to maintain even heat distribution.

Care and Storage

• Store in a cool, dry location away from moisture. Coconut charcoal absorbs humidity, which degrades its density and can cause cracking during lighting.
• Keep the box sealed or transfer remaining charcoal to an airtight container once opened.
• Do not store near heat sources, direct sunlight, or flammable materials.

Quick Fixes

• Hex pieces rolling off the burner coil: Lay them flat along the coil rather than across it. The hexagonal profile has natural resting positions — find the flat face and let it sit.
• Too much heat on the bowl: Remove one coal and set it aside on your charcoal tray. The Hexa runs hotter per piece than cubes, so two coals may be plenty for smaller bowls or lighter tobaccos.
• Uneven glow after lighting: Return the coal to the burner for another three to four minutes and flip again. Never place a partially lit coal on your bowl.

In the Box

What is the difference between the Hexa and the Cube 26mm?

Both use the same 100% natural coconut shell and share the same energy density at 7300 kcal/kg. The difference is size per piece. Each Hexa stick holds more material than a single 26mm cube, so it delivers stronger sustained heat per coal and lasts longer before needing replacement. The Cube is the everyday all-rounder. The Hexa is for sessions where you want more output with fewer coal changes.

What is a lounge box and why is it cheaper?

The lounge box is the bulk packaging format that hookah lounges and commercial operators buy in. Instead of individually packaged retail units, the charcoal is packed in clear bags inside a plain kraft carton. The coal itself is identical — same factory, same specs, same lab testing. The lower price reflects the simplified packaging, not a difference in quality.

How many Hexa pieces do I need per session?

Two hexagonal pieces is a strong starting point for most standard bowls and HMD setups. The higher thermal mass per piece means you typically need one fewer coal compared to a cube setup. For larger bowls or dense dark-leaf tobaccos, start with three and remove one if the heat is too aggressive.

Will these fit inside my heat management device?

The 22mm diameter fits comfortably inside Kaloud Lotus models and most standard HMDs. The 45mm length means the coals sit side by side rather than stacking vertically. Two pieces is the typical load inside an HMD, providing strong, even coverage across the bowl.
