    Wind Cap and Packing Pressure

    Hello all, I was doing some typical pipe multitasking, which is of course smoking (in this case some Irish flake) and letting your mind wander and I had a thought; does anyone pack a little lighter in anticipation of using a wind cap? I exclusively smoke outdoors so I use a wind cap for just...

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2021?***

    Enjoying my first ever bowl of G&H dark birdseye in my little bent Benton after mowing the lawn. I don't know why it took me so long to try this it smokes so nicely and has that spicy, tangy dark fired kick, delicious.

    The Stars Align For a Novice Pipe Smoker

That being said I've been getting back into it and enjoying it immensely once again. I've enjoyed many of the blends I've tried but I always fall victim to some tongue...

    First Post and Successful Bowl!

    Hey all, long time reader, first time poster here. I had my first reasonably successful bowl today so I figured I'd introduce myself here. I've been having a hard time with a bit of tongue bite and with keeping the pipe lit, likely due to my packing. After a few weeks of perusing the forum and...
