    Newby VA Flake smoker... questions

    Sorry, but what is a 10 sec nuc, acutabovebriar? I dried mine for about three hours, and have been drying each bowl's worth of tobacco for an additional hour or two before I smoke it. I have had the best results with a narrower chamber, too. Cheers and thanks!

    Newby VA Flake smoker... questions

I had no problems with some folded, hand shredded burley flake a few months back, but it wasn't nearly as moist as this...

    Newby VA Flake smoker... questions

I just did a search and found heaps of relevant info here: http://pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/pipe-filter-or-no-pipe-filter-that-is-the-question Having read some of that thread, I think for now I'll just continue to go without a filter because I really...

    Universal Pipe Filters?

    Greetings, I've been smoking pipes for about 5 years and inherited quite a few pipes from my father who passed away a couple of years ago. He left a box of Brigham pipe filters behind, too, but they don't fit any of the pipes I have. I am just wondering if there is a universal...
