Re: New Pipe Smoker With A Question? Ask an Old Fart

For the serious explorer with an eye towards understanding how it all fits together this may be the ONLY thing that makes sense. I was thinking along these line earlier today that getting a cob for...

Re: New Pipe Smoker With A Question? Ask an Old Fart

Some do and so do (less so). Pipes require a little sensitivity to the physics of what is going on (compression, expansion, condensation) and the learned coordination of things you must do (fill,...

Re: Once Great Pipe Tool Replaced with Junk at JR Cigar

My wrists are hinged. I can use any tamper with total comfort and precision. Own up to your limits and have the surgery. Do both arms, too, not just the one.

Unlike Curly Cut I LOVE the Czech...

Re: Chapel Hill, NC cigar bars/restaurants

Hard enough to smoke indoors in NC - now it might get harder to smoke outdoors, too. Heads up, tarheels.

Re: What do you do with your coffee grounds after using a press?

Septic-tanker here. A qwik rinse of water into a spent press then swish it into a strainer - dump into compost widget after it drains for a few minutes. Espresso grounds from knockbox to compost...

Re: New Pipe Smoker With A Question? Ask an Old Fart

My first Middleton Cherry Blend, untutored 1973, smoke(s) sucked. Escudo, 30-years later, was magnifico. Worth the wait.

Re: I Need An Espresso Education

Pinkie sets an excellent example, Jens.

Still, if you want to make a move, start with the best possible grinder and worry about an espresso machine down the road. There is a lot of fun to be had...

Once Great Pipe Tool Replaced with Junk at JR Cigar

Heads up, shoppers. I regret to advise that the once stout, reliable Czech multi-tool sold by JR Cigars (and just about everyone else) has been replaced at the JR/Selma, NC, store with a sorry look...

Re: Got the first pictures

Very cool, Brian.

Is it too late to order one with my DD-214 on the bowl?

Re: Mokapots, Moka, or Stovetop Espresso, Period.

I'm trying to edit a (regular) mokapot "How to" for youtube right now. I might do one for this pot next year. I fooled with it the other day and managed to get a shot out and managed to froth milk...

Re: Mokapots, Moka, or Stovetop Espresso, Period.

New (old) mokapot with frother from a consignment store in Raleigh - needs a little repair on the filter but it works. $11. Too cool.

Re: School me...I'm taking notes

ten-hut.

Proceed by the numbers.

1. You will recon a local roaster or, as another said, try finding fresh roast at a Whole Foods; acquire very decent bulk, fresh coffees from stock.

Re: Zippo Pipe Lighter

One man's opinion: a Zippo-flippo with pipe insert and the black can fuel is the undisputed cat-daddy of not-a-Corona-Old-Boy pipe lighters. Wipe insert sides with Vaseline to extend the time...

Re: Breaking in the ol'e pipe

I'd normally say, "Just stuff it and smoke the rascal," but a really deep bowl (which is what you got) will probably start gurgling before you hit the bottom if you fill it up. The bottom 1/3 of the...

Re: Turkish Coffee - Legal Drama.

Turkish (Greek, Arabic) coffee is just wonderful. It took me years to get around to make it because the grinds-in-the-cup thing sounded too disgusting. I didn't get it until I finally had some. I...
