packing technique

I found this technique about a week ago and have been using it since. I love it. Puts a nice tight plug in the top of the bowl with a loose fill underneath. It seems to aerate the whole bowl. Very few relights and a nice long smoke that doesn't go out. Took me a few tries to get it right. I don't think I'll ever pack a bowl the old (layering) way again.

It works very well for many blends, but it isn't worth a plug nickel for flakes (even rubbed out) or a lot burley blends (many of which are cube cut).

It has it's purpose and it's my preferred method for some blends. It isn't a universal method, though.

exactly. I use the the frank method for certain tobaccos, but mainly still use the 3 layer technique.
