So I've been told. I've never experienced it, however. My oldest meer had a cake in it as thick as any cake I've ever had and when I first heard that I should cut it down, I did. The pipe didn't smoke as well again until I caked it back up. This is also my gardening pipe, so it's had care that has been less than stellar, to say the least. I'm wondering if this cake thing on a meer is a theoretical problem that happens once in a blue moon or only with cake the thickness of a garage door.

When you think about it, it makes sense. Briar pipes with no cake smoke less well; why should meerschaum be any different?

I have a meerschaum I don't smoke much. Perhaps I'll test it and see at what point the cake causes the meer to crack and report back. These earth-shattering experiments have to be performed in the name of science and pipedom!

Re: Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES
Ended up having 2 bowls of the Danish, this is some excellent tobacco, has about 2 years of age on it and is smoking wonderfully if you haven't tried this blend and enjoy Vas you must. Its from a small outfit called Gatlinburlier in Gatlinburg Tn. Reviews are on tobacco review, they also have a website, this blend is not listed but if you give em a call or email them I'm sure you could get your hands on some. BTW I am not affiliated with the company just a happy customer.

Re: Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES
Started off with HOTW, then for lunch a bowl of Opening Night, which I must admit I'm beginning to like. Now it's back to HOTW. Meanwhile, the Frog sits there unloved; I just haven't been in the mood for latakia lately.

Re: Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES
Just had my first bowl of the day; C&D Sunday Picnic. Wow, good stuff. My favorite VA flake so far.

That's OK. I discovered the Frog this week and have been on a bit of an amphibian bender. The Froggie's getting lots of attention from me.

Re: Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES
Interesting. I'm smoking a blend of Consummate Gentleman and Frog Morton that I threw together the other night. I have to admit, it works!

Re: Tonights Smoke II - FOR PIPES
Red Rapparee (thanks dmkerr) is on the menu tonight. The more I smoke this blend the more I like it.
