    A Few Pickups from TobaccoPipes

    I tried the 1Q for the first time recently. Smoked a few bowls, but it's doing very little for me. For an aromatic, I don't think it has much aroma, was expecting more based on all the good reviews I've seen. My Cult tin is still sitting unopened, waiting for a good occasion. :)

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    Oh, 100%! This is the reason why I haven't purchased a briar pipe yet - I don't think my inner equipment junkie would be able to resist the temptation for too long. I think it's called the PAD in the pipe smoking community. :) For now, pipe is just a tool for me - I don't care about how it...

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    This is sad. I've never thought of what it might mean for the workers, the fact that the company is able to sell their product for cheap. Thanks for the perspective!

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    Thanks! The Freehand looks enormous to me, I probably don't need a bowl that large.

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    Yeah, I wasn't considering other brands of corn cobs, I think MM is great. Was just wondering if it makes sense to pay say $35 for a higher tier corn cob vs a CG which can be had for $16.

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    Yeah, I have looked at Forever Stems. Do you think acrylic stem vs plastic makes a big difference?

    Tobacco Sticking to the Walls

    So I read the thread on this forum called "On smoking slowly...", tried it to the best of my abilities, and I think smoking slowly does resolve the issue of tobacco sticking!

    Corn Cob Pipe I did it!

    I love the Country Gentleman!

    Are Expensive Cobs Better?

    I only own 3 pipes so far, all of them being MM corn cobs, and the one I like the most is the most expensive out of the 3 - the Country Gentleman. Now, MM sell corn cobs for up to $50, but would it make sense to buy one that's more expensive than the CG? I know some people say they love the...

    Rare Russian Pipe? Need Help Identifying My Recent Purchase!

    The article you linked says that Min Herz company had only existed for 3 years. You might have just purchased a very rare pipe for cheap!

    Hello!

    Where in NC are you? There's a good chance I will be moving to Raleigh area next year. Are there any pipe clubs/stores over there?

    Hello!

    Hello from South Florida. I used to smoke a pipe, very casually, 15 years ago, but had to quit. Picked up the hobby again about a month ago, this time putting in more research and trying to understand what I'm doing. I've only used corn cobs and tried a few blends so far, still working on...

    Tobacco Sticking to the Walls

    I've only smoked ribbons so far.

    Tobacco Sticking to the Walls

    But that would mean scraping the walls with the tool - is that ok for the cake?

    Tobacco Sticking to the Walls

    Thanks! I'm trying to take it slowly but still need to improve my cadence, probably.

    Tobacco Sticking to the Walls

    More often than not, I notice that tobacco pieces stick to the bowl walls, as if the center is burning faster than the perimeter. Is this a packing error? lighting error? pipe error? all of the above? none of the above? Thanks!
