Tongue and Lip Bite .... Again

Some people have a reaction to Red Virginia's, but not with other Virginia's.
Try you some Burley blends for a change of pace. Perhaps a drug store blend like Carter Hall (which has some Virginia in it), or Prince Albert.
Try you some high falutin' blends like ODF, or other Burley flake.
Try you some aromatics like Lane 1-Q.

As a newbie I can only tell you what have worked for me. I have also suffered in the beginning from tongue bites. And yes it was mainly due to two reasons which you already guessed.

The first was indeed because I smoked to fast. Now you ask how fast s to fast? Well only you can say that and you will discover it the moment you feel you smoke easy and enjoy it. The only way to find out is to slow down and then to slow down some more and more.

The second reason is packing wrong. Again I tried all the ways they show on vid on uTube and none worked for me. It was too light; it was too tight and as result it burnt to hot or went out every few seconds which made me relight a lot. Like you have to do. Again try and try again. Take the ways to pack that you see in vids and change then a bit. Try until you find the right way to pack. The moment you'll find it, you won't have to relight many times, it won't burn too hot, and you won't get tongue bites.

I'm smoking for about two month now and mostly I can now enjoy my smoke, and then again sometimes it does't smoke well and I know I didn’t pack right.

Try and try again and slow down.

Since you said that Burleys tend to bite less, I'm gonna suggest that it's not bite that you're suffering from.

Burley is an alkaline tobacco, and therefore should bite more, since bite is caused by alkalinity.
Rather, it sounds like the interior of your mouth is being scorched by heat (i.e., steam).

• First, don't light your tobacco too aggressively, since that starts you off on the wrong foot. Many folks, who worry about keeping the pipe lit, will incinerate the top layer thinking that they need a hotter ember. That's just setting yourself up for a steamy smoke.
  Next, you may be puffing too aggressively in order to obtain more satisfaction than your current blend can deliver. So, consider moving to a stronger, more flavorful, or more full bodied blend, like Old Dark Fired, Capstan Blue, Peterson Irish Flake, Old Joe Krantz, Freight Train, Bayou Morning, most everything by G L Pease, C&D Burley Flake #3, etc.
  Lastly, since you may in any event be getting too much steam in the smoke stream, consider opening the draft hole in your pipe's stem (mouthpiece) to about 4mm diameter. This will slow the velocity of the smoke stream and give moisture a chance to precipitate out.

I find moist aromatics seem to create steam and bite the most. Full strength burley blends seem to bite me not at all.

I was sort of surprised. Some of the blends that people suggested might be pretty rough turned out to bite the least

and not have that much of a nicotine buzz. Maybe this is just my particular body chemistry, but it surprised me. The

C&D burley blends seem to bite me not at all -- Billy Budd, Big 'n Burley, Pegasus, Dark Burley, Golden Ash, Old Joe Krantz, etc.

Same thing true of GLP Triple Play plug. I think this varies from person to person. Some can't taste burley, and others

find the flavor repugnant, to say the least. But if you like burley, a lot of good burley blends are being done right now.

With aromatics, let them dry out somewhat to reduce the bite.

Hang in there, I was in your situation last week....agree with the above poster, modify your filling technique using the known methods as a guide. I was able to smoke a bowl yesterday afternoon with only 1 relight so I think I'm finally getting the hang of this stuff... it is an artform for sure.

Read this thread. You need to learn the art of the slow sip. Guys seem to think that puffing generates more smoke than sipping, but a long slow sip generates plenty and doesn't burn your mouth. http://pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/the-art-of-a-slow-sip

Sometimes I will get some tongue bite when I start smoking different blends. Usually harsher virginia/burley blends. After a week or so of smoking them it usually goes away and my mouth gets used to it.

For some training, Try smoking a Virginia and keeping it cool with a paced draw and choke up on the bit

to find a comfortable position a lot of lip bite is caused by to much pinching down.

..IMO.

IMO,going out too much stems from leaving too much space at the bottom of the bowl. Yea, I know most "mentors" telling us not packing too tight and leaving a air hole down the bowl. However, most newbies I know are actually so afraid of packing too tight that end up packing too loose, which means leaving too much space down the bowl. So, push down a little bit more. I'm sure it will help.

The good news is the cells on your tongue regrow every 3 days - try a short break you may have fixed your technique but you are re irritating damaged areas

If its any consolation, you're certainly not on your own. I've had very similar experiences and have tried the various pipe packing techniques along with slowing down - usually accompanied by multiple relights.
From the wealth of friendly advice comes a background of widely different experiences, of tobaccos, pipes and techniques. I think its easy to become yet more confused, so I'm drawing from that most consistent, having also meantime read many more threads and topics.
So far I have just 2 pipes a Milville Mini and a weird green nylon basket pipe and am awaiting a lovely Zettervig handmade briar. I've also been smoking just G&H aromatics to date. The results have been that the Milville gives an occasional lovely smoke, but as it's being overused can produce a wet and unremarkable smoke with a lot of relights.
The basket case was an unwise although cheap eBay buy, with a well bitten stem. It seems generally poorly aligned and was seemingly refreshed with old ladies cheap perfume. I've barely been able to rid it of this, but all smokes from it are uninteresting, even so I've used this often and on different albeit aromatic blends so as not to taint the briar.
My next step is to buy some MM corn cobs in order to experiment with different tobaccos and to aid with pipe rotation. The precious Zettervig will then be dedicated to a favourite smoke to see how it goes. Meantime the Milville gets a rest, and the strange green nylon thing becomes solely a display piece. I have other ideas for it too...
I'm minded to try "Old Dark Fired" next, as I think part of the problem may be that of drawing too hard on a pipe bowl filled with basically too weak and wet tobacco? It's all part of the fun, and I'm enjoying the voyage of discovery!
