The aftermath of jarring up 500g of FVF and 250g of St James Flake. I’m finally realizing that I might be nearing the end of my Cellar Stocking Catch-up phase.

I can get a pound of MacBaren flakes into 3 half pint Mason jars. I also cut those flakes in half, as they are rather large.I cut them all in half and stuffed 75g in half-pint jars. Just about fills it perfectly.

Remember, jars can be re-used once empty, but I would by new lids. You can get 12 new lids for about a buck. The rings should be fine.Thanks, amigos! Will check my dwindling inventory of empty jars and get 'canning'..
It landed and I couldn't resist. Savinelli 673 and some Dunhill Elizabethan Mixture. I also received some Peterson's Perfect Plug. Will I get up at 5AM to try it or will I hold out? Yikes.

Yeap, I cut the flakes in half. The last 250gr of FVF I jarred I got it into two and left enough out for two bowls. If I have them, I do 1 8oz and 2 4 oz but I need to smoke through some open jars to get more of the 4 oz.
Great looking pipe! I would have a hard time resisting if the weather was nice.It landed and I couldn't resist. Savinelli 673 and some Dunhill Elizabethan Mixture. I also received some Peterson's Perfect Plug. Will I get up at 5AM to try it or will I hold out? Yikes.

How do you like the Elizabethan Mike? If you like it there is a whole world of a VaPers out there to explore and cellar.
Yes, it is good to give a briar pipe a day of rest. Solution- a seven day set. A supplemental solution- Meerschaum. Meers can be smoked full time without issues. I wish I had saved that picture of Baki's everyday Meer.It was quite nice. A neighbour struck up a long conversation so I had to relight a couple of times. At this point I'm just trying some things. Trying to stick to things that are positively reviewed. I really like this pipe though. I understand you need to give a pipe some rest between smoking so I guess I have to buy a few more .
I've been imagineering where I can put a collection of mason jars.
