    Mystery Pipe! Identification Mission

    I was referring to the pipe smoker who gave me the tip on Instagram, but good to know regardless!

    Cellar Tracking Tools

    Just excel for me. Creating the spreadsheet was a serious eye opener. What I thought was passionate collecting may well be a mental health disorder 😂

    How to Get More Fun Out of Smoking

    Fair enough, as our benevolent mods mentioned there’s little need to drill down any further regardless. As far the variance in briar porosity, I don’t think that was ever in doubt. Pretty well common knowledge as I understand. And @sablebrush52 may correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the...

    How to Get More Fun Out of Smoking

    Hahaha nevermind his comments on the boiling of briar to remove “you know what” being of particular importance.

    College Football Playoffs

    As a Washington State Alum I am obligated to root for Michigan is this game for obvious reasons. However, if it were any other team, I’d be rooting for the underdog against Michigan for sure, because I don’t think many people really expect UW to have any shot here. It would suprise me if...

    Boswell Premium Burley Review

    I have some premium burley on hand but have yet to try it! I’ll have to give it a go! My favorites include PS312 Toasted Burley if you can still find any. That and Solani Aged Burley Flake, MacBaren HH Burley Flake, HU Dockworker, Peterson 3P, and 5 bros. are my go to burley based blends. If...

    It Was the "Sap"

    Yeah, it would appear lighter, just like your pipes do after you remove the original finish when they arrive. If you then re-applied a new finish, oil, or wax, they would appear darker again, just like the outside of your pipe does when you do so.

    It Was the "Sap"

    Yes, oils and resins from the tobacco, not the wood.

    It Was the "Sap"

    The same thing that colors meerschaum. The combination of tobacco resin and smoke, and the moisture that results from smoking it. My guess as far as why your pipes are “coloring” so quickly is that it has much more to do with your finish stripping and re-oiling process. I don’t think it’s...
