I understand that a lot of people claim that lighting your pipe tobacco with zippo can leave a gassy taste. After smoking 2 bowls of pipe tobacco with my new Zippo Pipe Lighter i've noticed and tasted maybe 2-3 seconds of Zippo "gassiness". After that duration i taste the tobacco that i've always enjoyed.
Are there any techniques in avoiding the gassy taste? Should i pinch my nose and refrain from smelling the gas?
