[QUOTE="Wayne_Teipen, post: 121732, member: 627"] Good advice here already given. I also tamp at an angle inward creating a bit of a mound in the middle and then, with just the weight of the tamper, tamp the middle of the mound lightly. I also tamp much more than 2-3 times per bowl. I've found that the need to tamp tends to correlate with how you prefer to pack your tobacco. The more loose you pack the more frequently you will need to tamp to keep the ember in contact with the tobacco. You may also try a longer and lighter draw to give the ember a chance to ignite the tobacco around the outside. [/QUOTE]
