An inductive heating device for heating an aerosol-forming substrate including a susceptor includes a device housing having a cavity with an internal surface shaped to accommodate at least a portion of the aerosol-forming substrate, a coil arranged to surround at least a portion of the cavity, an electrical power source, and power supply electronics connected to the electrical power source and to the coil, for supplying an alternating current to the coil. The coil is a single coil having a plurality of connection taps arranged at different locations along the coil length to divide the single coil into a plurality of individual coil segments. The power supply electronics individually supply the alternating current to each individual coil segment.
