    First Pipe/Noob Problems

    Smoked my first bowl last night. (I've had 1 or 2 before, but they were years ago and I didn't pay attention.) I have to say I'm mad I didn't enjoy it more. I'm sure I sucked at packing it, lighting it, and smoking it. I'm also sure I was puffing too often, but when I let it rest for a few seconds, it'd go out. I also didn't get the billows of smoke I look for in certain cigars. Guess I just need more practice.

    How do you keep it lit while also not puffing often enough to get that harsh burn on your tongue/roof of mouth?

    What's a good way to determine how dry/wet it the tobacco should be? It was a flake that I crumbled and let sit on a paper towel for 8-ish hours. Are any okay right out of the tin/bag? And how do you tell?

    Are there blends that give you more smoke? Is that something anyone even cares about?
