The Downside of a Zippo, or Beginner's Mistake?
The only time that I've had any problems with a pipe insert was when the wick had burned down some from low fuel. As long as the wick was about center of the opening or slightly above there was always a long enough flame to reach the bottom of my deepest bowl. Just my experience...- nolan613

Pipe type.
Going a different direction here but it seems as though your enamored with the lagend of the pipe. If that is the case then just having a LOTR pipe for even an occasional smoke might be worth the expense. As has been pointed out, this is a very personal choice. Good luck...- nolan613

Stocking Up on Bulk Tobacco
Buying in bulk is a two edged sword. What you love today you might be bored with two years from now. By the same token I have had some blends that have cycled through the decades. Just don't overthink it.- nolan613

How To Home Stove Tobacco - Informational Only
There are very few tobacco blends that will not improve with age. Maybe that explains why I have close to 140 pounds of various blends that are between 15 and 30 years old.- nolan613

Air or no air
If your not using a press to compress the tobacco then there will be plenty of air left in the jar for aging. I have stoved some burley/Cavendish blend that tends to come close to vacuum sealing and it was amazing 17 years later.- nolan613

Did I Bake My Cellar?
Suggest that you do a little research on the subject of "stoving tobacco". Odds are if their not aromatics the they will probably come out better for the experience.- nolan613

The Economics of Pipe Smoking
It truly makes me sad to see free men turn over their rights to government control/taxation. I remember being 5-6 years old standing up between my parents driving down the road, windows rolled down and both of them smoking Chesterfields. I survived without any government intervention watching...- nolan613

How to Re-Hydrate Pipe Tobacco
Having grown up in South Carolina I remember that tobacco farming ranked up there with cotton in the 60's. Any tobacco farmer of any size had their own barns where they hung the tobacco to dry. Even as a youngster in the 50's & 60's the aroma in those barns were things of fond memories.- nolan613

Tobacco smoked at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis?
Lived in Durham for over a decade and am very familiar with the American Tobacco Company and the history. Tobacco and the Duke family were and still are a very big part of the city of Durham.- nolan613
