Re: Good burley to blend with Macbaren Virgina?

I get white burley from a local tobacconist; it is unflavored and smooths out an edgy virginia. I see something similar here: http://www.milantobacco.com/milan_101_burley_pipe_tobacco.htm

Re: Favorite UncleBeanz coffee?

No more Ariche Micro Lots... too bad. Watch for more. It was the best coffee I ever drank by about 4x.

Call Norman and ask, like they said.

Re: Turkish Coffee Drinkers?

100%. Best coffee going, period.

I like added spice; Mosesbotbol took me up a notch by recommending crushing cardamom seeds rather than using pre-ground cardamom out the spice jar. Good move,...

Re: I Need An Espresso Education

Fresh roast, period. Nothing else will quite make the crema + aroma + flavor that makes it all worthwhile. Unless you are a caffeine-resistant android like Germantownrob then a 3-cup pot is larger...

Re: I Need An Espresso Education

I think a well-strummed Bialetti 1-3 cupper for $12-$20 makes a way sweeter sound than any hundred dollar (not-hardly)espresso machine. It's all about the grind. The one you linked to, Jenady, will...

+2 on the 1-3 cup mokapot.

Spend the money on the absolute goodest possible grinder; it will serve all coffee needs from now until there is no coffee. Getting a 2nd or 3rd tier espresso machine...

Re: Happy Hanukkah!

You START with eight candles?! I though you FINISHED with eight candles! Darn it. Probably lighting my cigars at the wrong end, too. Chappy Chanukkah.

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

Pipe isn't soggy in the heel, is it? Sounds like your tobacco isn't too wet but maybe dry the tabak some more; change blends for a comparison, maybe. Things sound right to me.

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

No - that's good. Filling too tightly is a common culprit for pipes needing constant relights.

Tobacco squished between thumb and index crumbles, springs back a good bit or stays smooshed?

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

After filling the pipe (before lighting) is the draw resistance anything more than verrrrrrrrry slight? I mean, if you put a match to it and draw, does the flame go straight down or is it packed too...

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

I'm one of those who hates the taste of stained bowls. I either avoid such pipes of soak it out before smoking. Others smoke through it out without complaint. Go figure. -(P

If it's a new Pete, you are talking about nasty stain. If it's an old Pete you're talking about - nasty cake? Which it is?

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

You can lose the filters - almost everyone does. Yes to fluffy-type pipecleaners and yes to a cheap multi-tool scraper/tamper or, as many prefer, a big-ass nail with the point ground off or a golf...

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

As surface oxidation is cleaned off with light rubbing the stem goes to black; rub out evenly with finer and finer cloth until polished to a wet-glass sheen.
