@woodsroad Smoking the pipe. Only ever smoked tobacco in clay pipes apart from trying a briar a handful of times!Was it the pipe, or smoking the pipe? Are you now alergic to clay?
@Birddog66 If I put the Burley blend in my Sillem's Musketeer tin will it keep until next month as the tin has already been opened?Glad you like it mate![]()
Go on Amazon, @halfdan, and get yourself some heavyweight Mylar ziploc bags. Or transfer the baccy to a canning jar. 4oz jars will hold a 50gr. tin.@Birddog66 If I put the Burley blend in my Sillem's Musketeer tin will it keep until next month as the tin has already been opened?
Also, will my tin of SG Black Forest be OK as it's been open about a week or two?
I could put the tins in sealable bags (reusing them, no single use plastic with me!); will this keep it fresh?
Somehow I’ve lost that jar of rubbed out aged burley flake, what the heck did I do with it?Solani aged burley flake in a Frank Axmacher. This is my kind of tobacco! Wish it was more readily available, but at least I got 4 tins.

I think it’s some of the stain leaked inside the bowl, it’s not briar taste for sure but it seems to be burning off. I might leave some sea salt in there for a couple of days though.Ive never had a pete taste bad.
Maybe soak a pipe cleaner with everclear or 151 and swab out the stem really well.
Bristle swab the shank and burn some serious Virginia through it.
Only time I got a funky ghost was
After someone burned a cigar butt in one. That really funked it up.
It shouldn’t unless you’re inhaling Dan, probably a summer cold.I'm sure the pipe's causing my coughing / wheezing...
@Birddog66 Many thanks!It shouldn’t unless you’re inhaling Dan, probably a summer cold.
Yes mate that should be fine for a month or two easy.@Birddog66 If I put the Burley blend in my Sillem's Musketeer tin will it keep until next month as the tin has already been opened?
