Welcome! You couldn't find a better collection of pipe experts who are friendly and tolerate than this forum. They've put up with me for about 4 years, after all.

I think i am getting the packing more or less right, it's keeping it lit that is a big problem. I need to get the charring light right, it's going out more or less straight away . I will stick at it, i am determined to get it right. I am going to have to buy some kind of storage jars as i think the pouches you get loose tobacco in keep it to moist which will probably not help my light.

If its goin out immediately, sounds a bit loose and lil much moisture on the baccy. Try takin equivilant of a bowl of baccy an just set it out loose for couple hours. Betcha it'll make a world o diff.

@wasnsfisher, i will have to give that a try, i think keeping it in a pouch it's keeping it's moisture more.

Yo wiz - if you post a pic of the tobacco blends in the unmarked bags, and tell us what you ordered, we might be able to identify which blend is in which bag by visual inspection.
