    How Long Should a Bowl Last?

    Holy cow. My evening smoke was HU Louisiana Broken in a Rossi Lucca 8111 and at 105 min I was done even though I had a fair amount of very smoke-able good "dottle" left in the bowl. About 8-9 relights, 2 or 3 in first half and 5 or 6 in second. This pipe will be 2/3 bowls most often and very...

    VaPers in General and Peterson Navy Rolls in Particular...

    So now you're strong arming meinto some Peterson Navy Rolls. Crap. Also, I figured BROBS would mention the Graham Cracker scent of Newminster 400, although Straight Virginia not a VaPer. The sweetness is really present in the Peter Stokkebye LNF and LBF as mentioned already, especially for...

    ***What Are You Smoking, August 2020?***

    HU Louisiana Broken in a ginormous Rossi Lucca 8111. This will be 90+ minutes on the back porch watching the skies darken in the cooling air while sipping whole bean black Dunkin coffee and the pipe.

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do

    When you forget it in the oven (NOT mic) at 200F for 30+ min it does. My 8-9 sec mic time does not. Longer times unk.

    1 Grabow for 1 Year (8/2/19)

    As promised... not a top ten blend for me but a kudos smoke to didimauw in my well abused Country Gentleman. Congrats sir. Now never do that again. Pipe smoking is to be enjoyed not confining ;)

    Another Unexpected Discovery

    Yes, again great find, but if I were the Op ... no crossing railroad tracks, no elevators, etc...

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do

    Wow. And I've always been afraid of going double digits with the microwave. But that's why I wind up having to dry for up to another several minutes after I guess.

    1 Grabow for 1 Year (8/2/19)

    No Grabow's here but I'll smoke some Chatham Manor in my oldest cob for my morning smoke tomorrow in tribute lol. This will be for the cob that has been "missing" you. CM is about the only Burley(iest) blend I have.

    On the back porch looking at the calming skies and solving the world's problems with black coffee and Capstan Blue Flake in a newer MM Twain.

    Displaying Your Pipes

    No. But the containers are far from air tight so being in an AC controlled environment including air purifier I wouldn't expect that problem. But disclaimer is most of these pipes have been with me less than a year. Finally, just Wow to the display thread pointed out by @alaskanpiper very nice.

    Displaying Your Pipes

    If pipe smoking is in any way a trigger for your user name... you might want to just keep your showy best 12 on display and the rest in socks in drawers. Maybe even the 12 as well. Most I keep in large flat easy access Rubbermaid containers lined those blue shop paper towels. But I have zero...

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2020?***

    Taking a break between projects and monitoring Isaias here on the back porch. Some Dunkin fresh ground black coffee to drink and HU Louisiana Broken in a straight MM Country Gentleman with the original and "naked" plastic stem.

    Great find. Enjoy it and the family.

    Something I Never Thought I'd Do

    Yes 8 - 9 seconds depending. This started after my wife trashed my overnight drying FVF between 2 paper towels. She allegedly thought it was some uneaten weird snack I left out the night before.

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2020?***

    It was hotter than Hades today but cooling off fine on the central FL back porch. Enjoying some 3+ yr old LBF in my Edwards smooth bent billiard. Fresh ground Dunkin black coffee is the usual accompaniment.

    ***What Are You Smoking, July 2020?***

    A later start this eve as it's a bit warmer on our Central FL back porch. Very enjoyable nonetheless with a few years old Balkan Supreme in a simple Rossi Rubino Author.

    Did You Like Burley From The Start?

    No, still not a favorite.

    Pipe Rotation

    I try to give the pipe a couple+ days off. +1 on smoking from a clean pipe as well. I'll test new Aromatics and off the beaten path new blends in cobs. I love my Brebbia Dublin from @BROBS for English/Balkan blends, it's become one of my top 4 for those blends. I thought it interesting how...
