[QUOTE="LL, post: 121264, member: 95"] The most common cause of ANY pipe performance problem is uneven bowl filling, together with improper density (too much or too little pressure used when filling). Strive for a uniform matrix of tobacco from top to bottom. Break the shreds/flakes/whatever into as equal-sized pieces as possible, and remove all clumps. Too much pressure is worse than too little, because you have to dig it out and start over vs. tamp a bit more after lighting. Taking a bit more time to pay attention and do your best, as opposed to "grab and jam," will pay off exponentially. [/QUOTE]
