H&H Balkan? Oriental?
See some excellent recommendations for some H&H English blends. Was wondering what suggestions would be for a Balkan and/or an oriental? Saw Knights of Malta on a tobacco review site, but do not find it in the H&H inventory. Thanks!- johnparker

Draw
Until two days ago I had two pipes - one is my Dad's old four-hole Kaywoodie and the other is a Karl Eric half-bent brandy with a saddle bit. I used both of these to smoke Frog Morton several times. The draw on these two pipes seems about the same. The smoke would turn hot and bitey with a...- johnparker

Can Accomodate 9mm Filter
Generally speaking, if a pipe can accommodate a 9mm filter, just it? Or just smoke it without the filter? But 9mm seems like a bigger hole than most non-filter pipes have in the stem. Or can an adapter like the 9mm adapter by Vauen be used? Thanks! To add to my questions, I did see in a...- johnparker

Tobacco Suggestions?
Soon I will be dangerously low on Frog Morton which, except for a bit of Penzance, has been my only experience with English blends. Wondering what to get English blend-wise next. Just from looking at tobacco reviews my thoughts have been running to G.L. Pease Chelsea Morning, Dunhill English...- johnparker

Quoting a Previous Post
You guys are doing it! I can tell by the bar going down the sides of parts of posts! But have no idea how you are doing it. I see no command like I do on other forums. The gray "quote" in the new topic bar doesn't seem to be the solution for I can't get it to do anything. Help! And, is...- johnparker

Aging Tobacco
Read much on aging tobacco. How does one age it? Guess more specifically, do you age tinned/canned tobacco in the container it came in, or do you put it in a mason jar to age? Thanks!- johnparker

English Blend Taste?
I am a complete novice, and have a question on what I am tasting. I have both Frog Morton and Penzance. The first one third to half bowls with each tastes light and pleasingly "sweet"; maybe sweet is a bad term, but I mean comfortable, light and tasty to me. The last two thirds to one half of...- johnparker

Posting an Avatar
Have tried a number of times and failed! I go to change avatar and select a jpg photo from my picture library. The site's subprogram wants me to crop and save it, and presents a grid. I click on the grid and the buttons refuse to move the grid. Then the grid snaps to one side (varies) and...- johnparker

Parker Pipes
Was looking at a couple of new Parker pipes on the web, and the info mentioned metal condensers in the pipes. What is that about? A stinger? Saw no elaboration. Thanks!- johnparker

Pipe Buying Checks
Last night I read a thread where a member listed four things to look for when buying a pipe. For the life I me I do not know where the thread was or how to find it! One of the checks was to make sure a pipe cleaner would run down the stem and into the draft hole at the bottom of the bowl. One...- johnparker

I have two pipes: a smallish Drinkless Kaywoodie from the 30s and a bent, big-bowl Karl Eric. I now have several tobaccos that I am "sampling". English blends are Frog Morton and Penzance; for burley I have Mello Burley (house brand); for aromatics I just got some Lane 1Q. Plan to get a...- johnparker

Searching and Admin
Would have posted this in an "admin" section, but couldn't find one. Is there one? Real question was how to search on the forum within topics and posts. I see a big yellow banner at the top which says Search, but it appears to be non-selectable. The "search on site" button on the upper left...- johnparker
