As I'm constantly trying to figure out the best way for me to keep my pipe lit and only have to do so once or twice, does anyone here have any tips as to how long the flame on a lighter should be? Should it be shorter so as to just 'heat' the tobacco, or should it be longer so it can get down into the tobacco and light it all the way though. And that being said, should I keep a constant cherry in the bowl. I mostly smoke at night outside so it's very easy for me to see a cherry, but I have noticed that I can sometimes get it to smoke and not notice a cherry in the bowl.
