    The Palate Issue

    Indeed. Clutching at straws here really. Not too hot and not too fast. Tobacco is dry. I can taste the difference between most French reds and whites. I can taste just about everything from saffron to anchovies. Coffee needs to have milk to get a taste but that’s the only anomaly I can think of.

    The Palate Issue

    Yes, also using 3 pipes. One is a new Peterson and another is old and salted.

    Smoke rather than tobacco really…

    Tried several different tobaccos. Going down the aro route at the moment

    The Palate Issue

    Yes, tried slow, retro, breathing tech and all those. That’s when somebody said you may not taste anything for months…

    The Palate Issue

    I’d just like to taste something other than just tobacco and ash 😉

    The Palate Issue

    Ok. So you think it will come as the palate develops? Like I say, I’m just getting smoke at the moment.

    Thank you. All good points but what if the only thing you can taste is “tobacco”. ie. No flavour at all. Does this come over time?

    Peterson flame. Lighting problem

    Update: Bleeding helps. It now starts like a flame thrower each time. Burns out quickly. No flame control. Takes tiny amount of fuel to blast out flame. Still not found o ring. What does the o ring do?

    I’m trying aromatics at the moment but started out with Dunhill Night Cap and Dunhill Flake (Charatan). Yes not too hot. Yes all other tastes intact. Clean pipe new 999 and old 416 Petersons.

    The Palate Issue

    Sorry if I’m flogging a dead horse here but I’ve read that a (new to pipes) palate needs to develop in order to taste your tobacco? I’m one of those that can’t taste any of the many tobaccos I’ve tried. How long for that palate to develop. It’s probably a “piece of string” answer to mix...

    Peterson flame. Lighting problem

    Thanks. We have taken one step forward and I now get a sensible flame. No regulator though. Proper flame but I can’t control increase or decrease. Could it be the small o ring?

    Sorry to be such a newbie 🙄

    Peterson flame. Lighting problem

    Peterson flame. Lighting problem

    I have an issue with my Peterson Lighter. It won’t light each time. Sometimes if it does light, it throws a 3 inch flame. See vid for her in action. https://www.flickr.com/gp/43790296@N02/aXNd4X42o0
