You should say
“draw-in” instead of “inhale” to illuminate confusion.
FANTASTIC video.
Thank you very much sir. 🙏🏻👊🏻
Fun fact: lighters were invented before matches.
Don't believe you
@@pseudoplotinus don't. Nobody gives a sh*t
Good advice. It is nice to see that as a community we encourage new pipers to enjoy and not get frustrated. Techniques like this are very helpful. I had guide, my dad, so it was easier. Good habits, good results. 🙂
Thanks for the video Wilson. Microwaving the tobacco is something that’s obvious but something I’d didn’t think of so thank you very much for this great nugget.
Great advice again Wilson, thank you!
I had my first smoke with a pipe and had to re light it so many times that it wasn't enjoyable. I tried the microwaving thing, and it totally worked. I was absolutely smoking very wet tobacco. Thank you so much for making this video and helping a newbie out.
Glad to hear it helped!
Awesome. I attend a cigar lounge here once a week, and I’m always smoking my pipe. I tell beginners the same thing, dry your tobacco out and find a cadence that work for you, but it takes practice. I’ll refer them to your channel
Awesome advice 👏 this is good advice and never gets old 👌 Greetings from south africa 🍻 🇿🇦
Great advice! Like you said, most of these habits become second nature after some time.
Smoking along with you: mix of dark burley and AAA burley, bulk blending burley from Pipes and Cigars. Packed in a Chuck Long Working Man's pipe.
Just got my first pipe, watched a few of your videos and they've been very helpful for my soon-to-be first pipe session. Thank you.
Glad to hear it!
Another excellent video, Wilson! I recently had some issues with tongue bite with an English blend. Your points about cadence rang true and I think I was puffing too fast and long. I've slowed down and begun "sipping" rather than "sucking." Paying attention to cadence helped a lot. Anyway, great tips as always. Glad to count you among my virtual brothers of the leaf and even more importantly a brother in Christ! Blessings , Chris
I'm liking your videos !
I'm the only pipe smoker I know who doesn't own a tamper.
I have a perfectly good one to break the ash bridge on the tip on my index finger.
If I smoke a lot I will develop a small callous.
I do had a Czech tool to deaden the smoke if I'm stopping for a bit.
I mainly smoke while driving so that's one less thing to fiddle with.
Good video !
Well done. Personally I enjoy re-lighting my pipe.
Thank you for this! I’m smoking an aromatic while watching this. Definitely gonna try the microwave trick next time because I relight often. Not a big deal to me though.
Fantastic video. Very helpful. I been smoking pipes only a couple of months. Would love to see a video on gurgling. Sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn’t and I don’t know too much about it. Cheers from Northern Illinois
Great video. I think it is time for another theology update video especially on the Simplicity of God you mentioned you were reading by Muller, I think. Great Job, Keep 'em coming.
Great tips Wilson - thank you!
And thank you my friend!
Hey brother another great video keep it up
Very nicely presented, lots of detail, and very good tips, Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video! Always on point 👍
Thank you Budi
Thank you. I've just started smoking a pipe. A coworker did as well and I shared this video with him. Very helpful tips.
Hope it's helpful!
@@TheSpurgeonPiper very much so. Thank you.
Good video Wilson. For me figuring out how to tamp was a revelation in improving my pipe smoking.
Same here. It made a big difference
Very helpful, thanks!
One one of the more helpful videos. That little bit of packing that you decided to leave out might be helpful in its own video. Over all great tips
I am getting ready to try a pipe again after many years. Here's my take from my experience 40 years ago on pipe tobacco: If it is flavorful, it stinks; if it is not flavorful, it is aromatic. I need a beginner's tobacco that has some flavor but doesn't stink as I smoke indoors most of the time while working. Suggestions, please? Nice channel; I subscribed and will hit some other videos soon.
Good morning. That pipe fits you quite well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on keeping the pipe lit.
Thank you brother!
I tamp it reguarly and breathe and slightly, very slightly blow in the pipe while doing it. I never have to relight it since doing this
How the hell did people learn to smoke a pipe without you tube
Believe it or not.......people used to gather and have meaningful conversations. Men would teach their sons.
yes people used to meet and talk in person.
...very slowly! Years (literally)!
Great advice. Hope you are well Wilson!
Thank you brother!
Very Informative Video & A good review for the seasoned pipe smoker!
Thank you my friend
Wow I’ve been doing everything all wrong, very excited for my next smoke to try all of this out
Rather have to relight it multiple times than try to keep it lit to the detriment of the flavor. It will come with time. Smoking c and d rajahs court in a cob. Absolutely wonderful blend
Very helpful thanks
Enjoy learning , some tobaccos (not many) condor for example do smoke well moist , another way to keep your pipe lit is to just give a gentle reverse blow down your pipe( with the emphasis on the word gentle , keep your pipe clean. I was smoking a pipe for years before I found out about this gentle blow down your pipe trick.
Hi Wilson, really good effort to explain loading and lighting a pipe. On the tobacco loading section, it was a bit difficult to see but you seemed to be ‘feeding’ the tobacco loose into the pipe. Was that the case? I have seen many different techniques before, but your method is really interesting. You did not seem to squeeze the ribbon into a tighter shape before feeding it either. Is that right? A close up of the action you use would be neat. Really good though. 👍
great video, if you're new, this is excellent help with a lot of great information. . . now, on to a more serious note . . . great job on the books! I may have tried to see what's on the shelf better . . . okay, I looked really hard. :)
I don't microwave, I let sit out in air for 10 min (but I live w/ no humidity)
Interesting. I always thought the packing was firm to lose. Will try it the other way around next pipe.
You mentioned how to remove the moisture if it’s to wet, but what if it’s to dry? what’s the best way to rehydrate? or should you? Thanks
Excellent tutorial. I would add, after packing the pipe to test the draw before lighting it. It's commonly said that it should feel like drinking through a straw. If it feels like pulling a milkshake through a straw, that's too tight. Dump the pipe and start over.
- great video Pastor Marsh! .. a couple things I have found, one - I only tamp when I notice my draw getting "loserelight nearly as muscr" is the only way I can describe it, that way I don't over-tamp ... and secondly, for me the biggest thing was to just get over the fear of relighting. For the longest time I thought the goal was to smoke a bowl completely without relighting, once I heard more experienced pipers saying that relights were just part of the process, and realized I wasn't in a slow-smoke competition every time picked up pipe, my enjoyment increased and strangely enough I
found I wasn't relighting nearly as much as before ... btw - nice pipe, do you only smoke certain things out of your pokers ?

Nice vid
What pipe are you using in your demonstration?
The pipe you are using in this vid. I love that poker style and bowl finish. Can I ask who is the maker?
Ty
Great video. IMHO most folks smoke their tobacco too wet. 💨💨
I bought captain black and seven seas( both aromatic) and just left the bags open for half a day. They feel much drier now but not too dry like they’d smoke good. Hopefully it worked.
It's called a draw, a puff or drag... definitely not "inhale"
Nice! The only thing I find , even as most of my pipes are filtered, when you tamp it during the smoke to push down the ash, I taste the ash for the rest of the pipe smoke. So I use a tool to stir up the ash and I dump it out. But you didn't ask. Just had something to say about the conversation. Thank you
Very true, it makes the bowl way more easy to smoke pass the 1/2 mark
How do you know when you've smoked all of the tobacco in the pipe?
Any recommendations for a beginner who really enjoys aromatics? I enjoy the sweet scent and taste that it offers. I purchased a vanilla Cavendish, and I can't say that I have too much trouble keeping it lit. Is that the only reason why you don't recommend these variants of pipe tobacco?
Thanks!
Thank you!
What’s a good recommendation for a starter kit for beginners
I'll have 2 try the 10 sec in microwave.
Thanks 4 the tips!
You bet
Where do you buy your vests?
Oh my lord I wish I found you a few days ago
I always wondered why people put their finger over the bowl while smoking.
What pipe are you using?
Thanks
Just found your channel, thanks so much for the helpful videos.
Thank you Jeremy! I hope they'll continue to be.
Name of lighter please
Hi Wilson, good information as always. That is a nice looking pipe you have there. what kind is that ?
Thanks. That is a poker from Prohibition Pipes
If your pipe goes out and you have to relight it do you have to take off the top layer of ash. Thanks for the videos they are very helpful to a soon-to-be pipe smoker. After watching one of your other videos I have ordered a refurbished pipe from eBay and am eagerly awaiting for it to arrive.
No you don't. Unless you sit the pipe down unfinished for some time (1 hour to a day) which then you may want to but outside of that, no it's not necessary.
I dont know if I could bring myself to smoke in my house, more power to you though, better than freezing on the back deck in the winter
If I didn't have my setup, I certainly wouldn't. But I'm fortunate in that regard. I plan on covering it in the near future
it sucks when its so cold u cant feel your fingers as cant taste the tobacco, so over the winter i basically taking a break
I’m a clove cigarette smoker spring to late fall. I quit for the winter 10years running.
I expect I will do the same with pipe smoking. Trying something new-cheers😊
I still can't do it 😢
The fact it goes out from being lit is good because you can put it in your pocket and keep it for later. If you smoking like a machine it costs a fortune
I was just getting frustrated with trying to keep flakes lit and enjoyable. Long story for another time. But this video couldn't of come at a better time regardless. I might be missing something aside from figuring out the drying time. which is honestly where I think Im messing up the most.
Are they VA flakes by any chance? If so, I've found they need to dry out longer than other flakes, almost to the point where you'd think it's too dry to smoke. Make sure you get a strong light after your initial char light, and then take it slow from there. Flakes always need some relights anyway.
@@TheHammerofDissidence Bold Kentucky, NM 400 and Luxury Navy flake. I dried all three for an hour or two and rubbed them out and i couldn’t keep the damn leaf lit, draw wasn’t restricting as if the pipe was empty, but had that straw resistance that is commonly used to describe it. Id take maybe 3-5 in and out breaths before sipping. And failed all three times. I was disappointed.
@@HammerandPipe I can only assume it's the way you're folding and stuffing then? What I know helps is to fold N stuff for the first 3/4 of the bowl and then top it off with rubbed out flake. That way you'll have a nice ember bed to burn down the flake. And for what it's worth, Bold KY tastes pretty much the same rubbed out so no need to fiddle with it if it's giving you trouble (I was actually smoking a bowl of it when I responded to you, lol).
My favorite pipe? Depends on the day and where I’m at.
What about porcelaine pipes? I mean like cleaning And So on, hello from Czechia
Also, if the bowl is to hot to hold in your hand your puffing to fast.
What is your favorite tobacco you get in bulk?
Country Squire's Green Dragon is a top choice
I pinch my tobacco and it doesn't clump, but I'm smoking and I get gurgling with every smoke. I assume it's too wet, right?
yeah probably. idk if humidity can make it gurgle, but where i am i gotta dry tobacco out pretty good
What's the best systematic theology to smoke a pipe to?
Turretin's Elenctic Theology
Is tongue bite when your tongue gets sore when you smoke ?
Usually yes
@@TheSpurgeonPiper thanks for responding. I’m assuming it’s caused by the tobacco being too moist or wet. I’ve been smoking aromatics and they have been a bit on the wet side so on my next smoke I will take the time to dry it out and go from there. 👍🏼
did ja say cancer?
HELLO! What is this beautyful poker?
I just asked as well hope he will respond or afraid everyone will have one😂
Fun fact: the lighter was invented before the match! Doesn’t seem like it would be true but it is oddly enough
a lighter is a flint and steel after all (along with some fuel). a match is like a magic fire chemical stick
By “inhale”, he means to draw on the pipe. Don’t inhale into your lungs like a cigarette.
Correct. I probably need to make another video in the future to clarify that.
That’s great! I think part of the hookah culture is going to be transitioning to pipes when they get older. They actually inhale which wasn’t originally how hookah was intended.
FYI: The OG hookah smokers would “sip” the smoke but somewhere down the line it turned into “hey look at the big, white cloud I could make with this glycerin infused shisha (hookah tobacco).”
Packing the bowl and keeping it lit are the same problem. Pack the bowl correctly and the bowl will stay lit. Tamping is just repacking the pipe as it burns.
Packing the bowl correctly is important but only part of the process.
-You can have a perfectly packed bowl but if the blend is too wet, you'll still have issues. Same with a messed up smoking cadence. Or tamping too much or hard. There are several variables that can cause issues in keeping the pipe lit.
tamp every 5 minutes & also puffing cadence.
Lighters were invented before the match
‘inhale’ = draw
Get to the point! Listening to you talk as like dragging my nails across a chalkboard.
Hahaha
Stop using the word inhale if you are making content for beginners, you don’t inhale anything ever.
no matter what i do, or how i load my pipe, i just cant keep it lit lol
