I smoke enough OGS to justify rubbing out a full 50g tin at a time, which I then store in a ball jar. Everything else, though, I prep a bowl at a time. Cube cutting works great for Dark Strong Kentucky for me, but not great for any other blend. ???

I also have to rub out my flakes. I dont smoke them very often, but when I do i rub about 2 bowls worth and let it sit for a while.

Thanks for the responses. I just rubbed out about 2 oz of Kendall Flake since I know will be smoking it fairly frequently, the rest I'm leaving in flake form to celllar. I'm looking forward to see how it ages.

Depending on the blend, I cube cut or rub out (sometimes both) about two or three bowls worth at a time. I immediately smoke one and leave the rest to dry, sometimes until the next day. I usually have at least three blends going at a time.

I just scrunch some into the pipe and light up. If some of the flake crumbles back into the jar it's ok. Doesn't really matter to me.

Once you rub anything out, it will get more air, drier...if you've rubbed it out and don't smoke it soon, jar it.

I use all the methods depending on my mood and which pipe I use. Cube cut and a slight rub out is pretty consistent.

I have been smoking mostly LNF for flakes.
