    Wind Cap and Packing Pressure

    Hello all, I was doing some typical pipe multitasking, which is of course smoking (in this case some Irish flake) and letting your mind wander and I had a thought; does anyone pack a little lighter in anticipation of using a wind cap? I exclusively smoke outdoors so I use a wind cap for just...

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2021?***

    Enjoying my first ever bowl of G&H dark birdseye in my little bent Benton after mowing the lawn. I don't know why it took me so long to try this it smokes so nicely and has that spicy, tangy dark fired kick, delicious.

That being said I've been getting back into it and enjoying it immensely once again. I've enjoyed many of the blends I've tried but I always fall victim to some tongue...

    First Post and Successful Bowl!

    Hey all, long time reader, first time poster here. I had my first reasonably successful bowl today so I figured I'd introduce myself here. I've been having a hard time with a bit of tongue bite and with keeping the pipe lit, likely due to my packing. After a few weeks of perusing the forum and...
