Experiment with the fineness of the crushed charcoal and the tension in the foil. The more squashed the charcoal is, the lower the resistance. Aim for a resistance of around 3k ohms and definitely 700 ohms < resistance < 14k ohms.

Graph the resistance, pressing on the foil changes the resistance. You have built a pressure sensor. It can also sense air pressure. Change to Sound sensing. On my first try I was able to sense clapping.
