An electric heating device that forms a heating air generator arranged in a channel is provided with an outlet nozzle for introducing the heated air into the chamber after the air runs through the heating device and absorbs heat energy. The smoking product is spread in a substantially even manner on a saucer-like surface in the chamber. The outlet nozzle is arranged in such a way that the heated air that flows out of the nozzle flows directly onto the smoking product and heats it through up to a temperature close to but lower than its glow temperature.
