hey zen go to pipesmagazine.com and on the left hand side down towards the bottom they have links to the articles. they have videos on different packing methods, cleaning, blending really everything you need. i thought i was doing good packing my pipe for over 5 years until i read that and got a different method that works better for me now.
Thanks bro yeah that has been my go to site and also pipedia.org....man there is just so much to learn/do/perfect...etc.... Which method do you personally use for a flake?
I only have one flake that i smoke Mac Baren and when i do i normally shred it in my hands before packing so its not as strong, i tried the fold method and it was to much for me.
I also smoked a big bowl of Frog Morton, mm good.

had a couple boys over to shoot the breeze tonight. we are all leaning pipe at this point, so it was really amateur hour, but it was fun, so who cares. o)
burned down some sutliff moulin rouge i got in a sampler, might actually be able to do aromatics.

It's all about finding the right aromatic. Some are absolutely horrible while others are divine. Sadly the only way to know is to sample all of them.

+1 i started on aromatics and the ones i smoke now compared to then are 100% better. The biggest factor to me is to go with a good manufacture, if you get the cheap stuff it will be really sugary and sticky.It's all about finding the right aromatic.

Tried some Mac Baren Seven Seas Royal, so so it was a little moist so i will have to dry some and try again.
