Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Yes, it CAN be removed while warm, but it still is not a good idea. I have seen military mount pipes crack, even under the metal. Remember, even metal expands with heat.

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Hey, do not get down on Petersons because of me. They have sold probably tens of thousands of pipes, so they must work for some people - lots of them in fact.
So, if you ordered one, you may one...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
I am not a fan of Peterson pipe, their "system" pipes seem to be nothing more than a pooling system for tongue bite, at least for me. And, they are the worst pipes to try and break in, the crap the...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Everybody's body chemistry is different, so you might be having issues because of that. If I might suggest, go without any tobacco for a few days, cigar or pipe. If you can, a whole week would be...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Moisture loss isn't as much as you'd think, but it is significant. The other thing is, it does not age well without the moisture, nor does it stay as fresh without the moisture. I let the tobacco I...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Bingo!!! I wondered if that might be the problem. Tobacco is often over humidified for storage so it does not dry out. AND, dare I say it, water is cheaper to produce than good tobacco? OK, that...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
It is too dry if becomes dust when you pinch it.
As with much of this, what works for you might not work for me and vice versa.
Also, each individual tobacco needs to determine who dry it...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
OH yeah, another suggestion is, dry out your blends a bit before smoking them.
Also, make sure your pipes are dry, and have had a chance to dry completely before filling them to smoke again.

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
They age like a cigar or good wine, not sweeter so much as becoming richer in flavor. In 5 years, I have had sugar crystals appear on flakes. You can tell the difference, that it is not mold because...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
At a puff every 2-3 seconds, you are smoking way to fast. I do not think it is allergy, although it might be. I leave my pipe in my mouth, and I do a puff every 30-45 seconds. If I am talking with...

Re: Tongue Bite..Va\Per recommendations?
Well, this is a tough one. GLP usually has no problem with tongue bite. So, I am going to ask a couple questions.
1) Are you a cigar smoker? I ask because many of those who are transitioning...
