So far so good. Had a drying misshap and had to rehydrate a little. Who new dry boxing overnight was a bad idea?
Went from wet to bone dry. Oops. Good recovery though. Still need to work on packing.
I used to fugg up my pack all the time now I just fill the bowl and pack while testing the draw until it is a bit loose than I want. Then fill space vacated by the packed baccy and pack til the draw is what I want. Don't go too tight you can always pack a little more after the first light with your tamper.

Lol, we've all been there. I've dried overnight with flakes before and even though it was bone dry it smoked fine. There's no hard and fast "right" way. Each of us has our own style and preferences. I still tend to pack my bowl too tight half of the time. When I do I "stir" the bowl to loosen it and then relight.

Yup, although that can cause a fast/hot burn. That Dan Tobacco Patriot Flake I gave you is one that came out of the tin fairly dry and fluffy. That one is good to pack and light with no dry or special prep. Talking about it has me jonesing for some now... My fiancées orthopedic specialist needs to hurry up so I can get home and get the kids fed and get a smoke in.
