    GMO Tobacco/No Nicotine

    to the people who ask what's wrong with GMO, for starters, for some reason, triggers some weir fear on people, like they are only products from mad scientist. Aside from that, I will give my inside as an Agronomist, but a lazy one, I will not quote or give source, this is a pipe forum, not a...

    Mold in Cornell & Diehl Steamworks

    If there were bread and cheese forums, probably yes, just to check if is an insoloted event or something more common. Also, if my bread is moldy right after leaving the store, will return it, and probably I will get new bread or a refund. yeah, tobacco is a natural product, it may spoil, but...

    Mold in Cornell & Diehl Steamworks

    yep, everything is cover in mold and other microorganism, we deal with that everyday, and will be a forever fight, but in the other hand, now we have a lot of knowledge and tools to preserve things, so it feels really frustrating when we face something spoiled. As a Winemaker, I'll talk from my...

    Savinelli Bowl Coating

    I have a Savinelli Dolomite with coating, I haven't notice any flavor on the first smokes, but, I have several Petersons with really awful smokes at the begining, with nothing in common, diferent color, diferent finishes, some have a great start, and some need some smoking to burn what I think...

    Corn Cob, Acrylic Stem and Vauen 6mm Filter

    My cob has plastic stem, and the fit is really tight, only 2mm inside the steam and is already good, there is a lot of space in the shank so I don't bother to take the filter more in the steam. The same is for balsa filters, if i put them any further, it gets annoying hard to take them out once...

    I think I’m done with Zippo Butane Pipe Insert

    I've got one, and is absolute awful experience. I love zippos, I love the pipe insert, but I don't smoke daily, so I waste a lot of fuel that just evaporate, and with that in mind, I still use my zippo a lot. So I got the butane pipe insert, and totally hate it, burn my hand, the gas lasted like...

    Savinelli Balsa Filters Further Information

    I use balsa filters for the moisture, after smoking they are wet, and sometimes I see a little tart and ashes. I use them with the very mild blends cause I don't fell they take any flavor, for everything else I use activeted carbon filters. I wonder what are the impurities for you, like, stuff...

    Savinelli 6mm Charcoal in Corn Cob

    I have two Missouri Pride with plastic steams listed for 6mm filters, as long as I know, the acrylic steams are not drilled to hold any filter, and that is something that hold me to get the nicer models of cobs, may be there is enough shank space to hold a filter, o may be no. I hate the paper...

    Sometimes I Think Pipe Smoking is dying...

    I'm a lurker myself, manly because when is a topic I can say something is already said, and also cause I'm a noob looking for info, how to keep the pipes, or cellaring advice, stuff like that. And now, with the tobacco reviews blocked to all visitors outside USA, I tend to go to the reviews...
