Exposing Tobacco to Tobacco Smoke

[Yambo]

I always fill my pipes and smoke them in different rooms, specially if I'm filling a second pipe and the smoke from the first is still lingering around. I fear that the smoke might affect the flavour of the tobacco in the jars I'm opening.

But I see many people keep their tobacco jars in the same place where they smoke, so I gotta ask: does the smoke around alter the properties of tobacco?

I think maybe you're overthinking this. Pretty sure that the 0.00001% of the air that contains the smoke is not going to affect a jar of tobacco that is open for a few minutes.

I have a separate room that is hermetically sealed and i have installed a micro-gravity pump, so i can not just gravity fill bowls i can micro-gravity fill them, then i take a home built underground tube shuttle to another property where I actually smoke.





Or in reality i have literally never given it a thought, tobacco is in jars and tins and any tobacco that is out drying is just out drying and again never have given it any thought, smoke and be happy.

This is the problem with this forum. Too many amateurs that simply don't take pipe smoking seriously enough...

It absolutely does, but to an indeterminable level.

Oh, it affects it so much that smoke shops have to rename the blends they buy from Lane and Sutliff that have in jars beside the counter. Legally they can't call it what it was. That's why some people will think blends changed over time, they just sat in smoky shops on shelf long enough and with enough smokers to change the flavor. This is why internet sales are ruining our hobby!!!!
Yes I am being sarcastic but I do have a point.

As has been said, no noticeable effect. Maybe if you were burning a few pounds per bowl in a really large pipe...

Yes but to be part of the community we must tolerate them and allow them to march to their own drummers, i prefer Buddy Rich, Neil P and Bonham.

Just don't smoke a pipe while grilling burgers.....it has an "interesting" flavor.

You're both wrong. Jim Keltner.

I march to Nils Fjellström, Gene Hoglan and Pete Sandoval.

I think you are wasting your time but in your defense, it is your time.
