Gonna be too cold (for me) to smoke outside soon.
I’ve considered getting some type of air filter for my office to use in the winter months.
What’s your winter tobacco solution?
Felt inspired to break out a well known maple flavored pipe tobacco in honor of autumn. I was quickly reminded that while it smells nice, it just has no ‘oomph’ - which probably equals nicotine.
Conversely a virginia and/or burley blend has subtle natural fermented sweetness but also a kind of deep presence in the experience. Feels more meditative and substantial to me. Whereas aros give me the impression I may just be wasting time.
To each their own of course. Think I’ll work on breaking in my new pipe with some Carter Hall (va/bur).
What’s in your fall pipe / cigar rotation out there?
So far it’s a bit on the weak side compared to same beans doing pour over.
I’ll try grinding a notch finer and longer slower brew. It may be partly a matter of seasoning the new pot too.
Any other tips from Bialetti vets?
I am happy to report, having bounced off of aluminum moka pots in the past due to metallic taste, this steel Bialetti one does not have that issue.
Perka-perka y’all!
