Excellent thread fellas. I’m brand new to this also. I’ve occasionally had bite issues and have tried to just slow down and sip weaker. But at times I feel like I’m sipping so weak that I barely get any smoke. I think I’ve been packing too tight. Also one who used Youtube university to try and school myself haha. I’ll pack much lighter from now on the try adjusting from there.
smoking a pipe is kind of like learning to drive. None of the things are tricky by themselves, but there is not a way to not deal and learn all the controls at one time. You can't just learn how to use the gas pedal and not how to steer or brake.
