    Breaking in a Missouri Meerschaum hardwood pipe

    I agree with the other posters on the 4-6 bowl break-in period and using Carter Hall or Prince Albert to do it with. I also use those two tobaccos for the first few bowls on new cobs as well. My experience was also that the wood shop taste will go away and you will have a good cool smoking pipe...

    Requesting Some GL Pease Suggestions

    A couple of good VaPers are Stratford and Telegraph Hill. If you want something spicy and want to test your nicotine tolerance at the same time then try Haddo's Delight. (Tip: Don't smoke it on an empty stomach).

    Tobacco is drying my tongue

    I am experiencing the "sandpaper/dry tongue" today myself. I have only been at this for a year but as others have posted, I too have found it is usually related to smoking too much. I smoked six bowls yesterday and it does seem to be a delayed reaction the following day. The only way I can get...

    One Bulk to Stock

    Luxury Navy Flake and Luxury Bullseye Flake. Wait, you said one. Okay, they both start with Luxury. Does that count as one?

    Savinelli Balsa Filters

    I too have experimented with using them in my MM cobs and they work fantastic. What I have found though is that a whole balsa filter restricts the draw too much so I cut them in half and just stick the half piece (about half an inch) in the end of the stem. Works great and to remove it (the fit...

    MM Maple Hardwood Pipes

    I acquired several of them during the cob shortage that was caused by drought conditions and the retailers were having a tough time keeping some of the cobs in stock, particularly the larger pipes. As I understand it, the maple hardwood pipe was a direct response by MM to try and fill in the...

    Bye, Bye P & C

    I have used P & C many times before and after the move and before and after the website change and have always had great prompt service and communication from them. My last order was even done on an iPad which was a new experience for me. Yes, we were all used to the way the old website worked...

    Tobacco Basics - Nicotine & Sugar Content - Curing Methods

    Great information. Thanks Kevin and for the informative link bluesmoke. I didn't have this information when I got hit hard by Haddo's Delight a few months ago but accidentally discovered that drinking sweet iced tea made it ease off quite a bit. Maybe the sugar and caffeine were the ingredients...

    New Members, Introduce Yourself!

    Hi everyone. I live in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I retired recently and thought I would give the pipe another try since I seem to have the time now to devote to it. Pipe smoking doesn't seem to get along well with a society that moves at break-neck speed. I guess that's a niche that cigarettes...

    Avatars in Forums

    Okay, got it to work per your instructions Bob. I was trying to do this in the "my account" profile after creating a new account and was having the same problems as the others above. Apparently, creating a "forum" avatar is a separate process altogether and can only be done AFTER creating a post...
