Serial Bowls, And I Don't Mean Cheerios

[anotherbob]

one scenario I'll do that. When I'am drinking or something similar with friends who smoke cigs. So when they step out for a smoke I'll take the pipe and get a few 20 minute sessions in. Mainly cause in those scenarios people will smoke two or three cigs. Otherwise I'll not do that. If I have to stop a bowl I'd rather dump it and start over. Oh or if I am running out to a shop and get there in the middle of the pipe. I'll let it go out and then light it for the return trip. Though one time I did forget and left the pipe in while shopping. No one seemed to notice either.

I always get up before everyone else in the house, I love that early morning bowl when no one else is awake, and the days hasn't officially started yet.

I don't get those often but when the g.f. sleeps in and the cat does too I'll enjoy the back porch usually with the fancy meer.

How does one pipe?


Were it not for smoking on the run, I wouldn't be able to smoke. Most of it's done at work.

In the Netherlands 'piping' means something entirely different. It means sucking on a 'pipe' but it has nothing to do with tobacco...

Just here to rep the thread title. Kudos.

I pick up and put down pipes all the time. I smoke pretty much all day. If I find a pipe with anything more than dust in it, I’m firing it up.

Most of my smokes get interrupted at some point. I do this all the time.

Yep I do this too, except invariably forget about the half bowls all over the place and end up lighting a new pipe. Once I found a pipe full of ODF that had been started a few weeks earlier. Now that was something

Between my ADHD, teenage sons, and a rather busy life I seldom finish a bowl. I often am serial bowling. lol

 

[UncleRasta]

I do that fairly frequently (suspend a smoke for a number of hours). Most times I taste no difference, occasionally it tastes horrible, and sometimes it seems to greatly enhance the smoke.

 

[didimauw]

I prefer to finish the bowl. I never purposely set one down to smoke later. And if I ever need to put one down, I only finish the pipe later, just so I can refill it again, and to keep the cake going good. I don't like the taste of a stale partially smoked bowl.

I have noticed that blends made from whole leaf/home grown don’t do as well commercial stuff when smoked as leftovers. Does anyone else find this?

I was smoking some whole leaf basma and I noticed it had a funky taste when I went back to it the next day.

I like it when I leave enough in a pipe bowl for the next day and I get that first smoke without having to decide which pipe or which bowl and without packing a pipe. It's as if an imaginary house staff had fixed it up for me.

 

[renfield]

I only do this rarely when outside factors force it. For me it only works well with Virginia blends.

Sometimes I’ll pack the night before for an early morning bowl. You’re right, it’s like having a pipe valet. Jeeves has great taste in tobacco.

 

[bnichols23]

Occasionally, but usually okay if it's an aro. Lat bombs, no, nope, & on a cold day in hell!

 

[jpmcwjr]

All the time with Latakia blends.

Diff folks, diff strokes.

By late afternoon, I've usually got 3-4 unfinished bowls in the hopper. That's what I smoke during the pre-dinner rush. I rarely leave any overnight, not on purpose anyway.

My morning bowl and evening bowl are in a full size pipe. 30-40 minutes for me. My mid day bowls are in my minuscule ropp etudiant. That poor ropp sees some use. I personally have never left a bowl longer than a few hours. Usually don’t enjoy it as much.
