The Vitria III is Kaloud's glass-hybrid phunnel — a borosilicate glass core housed inside food-grade silicone, engineered in the USA to sit perfectly with the Lotus III. Our Melbourne store team points enthusiasts towards the Vitria when they want the cleanest possible flavour expression without sacrificing cloud production. Glass sits between ceramic and aluminium in heat behaviour, which turns out to be the sweet spot for both flavour clarity and smoke output.

Kaloud Samsaris Vitria III — Borosilicate Glass Hybrid Phunnel

Why Glass Changes the Session

• Borosilicate glass core delivers the cleanest, most transparent flavour of any bowl material — no ghosting between sessions, no material flavour imparted to your shisha.
• Kaloud's patented individual flavour chambers keep heat even across the pack and direct juice into a central air channel rather than letting it drip down the stem.
• Food-grade silicone housing protects the glass from knocks and thermal shock, insulates your hands from the heat, and doubles as an integrated grommet for most stems.
• Glass sits between ceramic and aluminium in heat behaviour — thicker clouds than ceramic, cleaner flavour clarity than aluminium. The balanced option.
• ~15–20 g capacity covers 60–90 minute sessions when paired with a proper HMD.
• Engineered to fit flush with the Kaloud Lotus III, and fully compatible with the Lotus I+, I+3, and most third-party HMDs.

Fit & Compatibility

Specifically designed for the Kaloud Lotus III for the tightest fit, but works equally well with the Lotus I+3 and Lotus I+, plus most third-party HMDs. The silicone housing doubles as an integrated grommet and fits most standard hookah stems securely. Drop into our Melbourne store if you'd like to test the seat with your own stem before buying.

Packing & Use

• Pack 15–20 g of shisha evenly to just below the rim, level with the top of the centre spire.
• Fill the individual chambers — do not overpack the centre.
• Seat your Kaloud Lotus or HMD directly on top.
• Add lit coals and let the session warm up for 2–3 minutes before drawing steadily.

Care

• Let the bowl cool fully before rinsing — borosilicate is thermal-shock resistant but cold water on a hot bowl is still the main way glass bowls die.
• Rinse the glass core under warm water. Glass cleans easily without soap — that's one of the reasons it doesn't ghost.
• Wipe the silicone housing with a damp cloth.
• A soft brush for stubborn residue on the spire or chamber walls — no abrasive tools.

Common Questions

Vitria III or Kore Ceramic — which should I buy?

Vitria III gives you the cleanest flavour with slightly better cloud production, and it's optimised for the Lotus III. Kore Ceramic is more forgiving on heat management and a touch more neutral. If cloud production matters to you, Vitria. If simplicity matters, Ceramic.

Do I need the Lotus III specifically?

No — Vitria III works with the Lotus I+ and I+3, plus most third-party HMDs. The Lotus III fit is the tightest, but the bowl is compatible across the Kaloud Lotus range.

Will the glass crack?

Borosilicate is built to handle direct coal heat. The only real risk is thermal shock from cold water on a hot bowl. Cool it down first and it'll last.
