Home blended and pressed Pipe Tobacco..

[@nw7us]

Wow, never figured a way to press my blends. You've inspired me! Thanks.

[@atnoahshouse]

Awesome, glad to hear it. Let us know what blends you press and how they turn out. Thanks for stopping by…….

[@DemocratsRGroomers]

​@@atnoahshouseHello, great video. So, do you recommend keeping in the press for a whole month??

[@atnoahshouse]

@@DemocratsRGroomers I think 7-10 days. But that would depend on the tobacco and what outcome you are after……

[@DemocratsRGroomers]

@@atnoahshouse Okay that's mostly what I thought. I must have read that wrong somewhere. Thanks for your reply and I'll keep learning and enjoying your videos. 👍

[@atnoahshouse]

@@DemocratsRGroomers Some of the first pressed blends I did I pressed too long I think. I did one like a month and I think it was too dry and compressed. I like 10 days and cut as soon as it comes out of the press……

[@GordonLittell]

I have the Brigham Voyager 109, it was my first pipe and personally I use it more than the others :) Love your contributions to the community Noah!

[@atnoahshouse]

Thank you. I smoked a lot of blends out of that pipe. It was one of my first “better” pipes. I have passed it along to my son who is starting in on the hobby. Thanks for stopping by……..

[@davidtalturejman9185]

Thats Awsome!

[@atnoahshouse]

Turned out better than I thought……

[@terrybrewster8783]

Very cool.. thanks for sharing. I think next time I'm in Pgh we'll be spending a lot of time smoking your blends. Great job!!

[@atnoahshouse]

Hell yea. I look forward to it…..

[@tramperscott]

Looks good. I have one of those presses. I will try it out one day. If i had to guess, I'd say the goo is probably from the BC. But it's only a guess

[@atnoahshouse]

That’s what I was thinking. Thanks for watching……..

[@bgray1009]

after watching this i ordered the same press. i have a jar of remnants from other jars, less than a bowl leftovers from jars that i mix together and i think turning it into plug and maturing could only do it good lol

[@atnoahshouse]

Sounds like a great idea. Let us know how it turns out. I’m curious about what the outcome will be……

Very nice Noah! Thanks for sharing the process. Have no clue on the goo lol

[@atnoahshouse]

Not a bad smoke. I will see how it is in about 6 months…….

[@johnBrett-w6v]

Thank you, enjoyed this very much, loved the way you pressed the tobaccos together. Am heading to Albany for thier pipeshow, my first.

[@atnoahshouse]

Awesome. I have heard it’s a good show. Thank you for the kind words. Thanks for stopping by…….

[@zandig666]

Your gonna ban me here lol but this summer was my first foray into topping and suckering and curing tobacco. I am fermenting and aging in a large container at 70% humidity and may drop it from 50% then bringing it back up with some flavored whiskey for the final 8 months 🤤🤤 but can't wait to experiment with pipe tobacco and chew as well !! Thanks sir enjoy a good smoke !!

[@atnoahshouse]

That sounds incredible. Wow. Give me the run down. What type of leaf? Are you following a recipe? And how can I get some? Pipe tobacco and chew. Also do you have any videos or pictures posted. I would love to see the whole process. Awesome…..

[@zandig666]

@@atnoahshouse I really recommend finding a few varieties of seeds and let yours flower after that I just leave one flowering shoot as there is a Ton of seeds I think it might be one of those no rules is the rules thing the whole process is fun I hope you do it !!! I decided to air dry and "cure" in the more controlled environment . I just got a Virginia strain last yr but I will buy another strain or 2 this spring 🚬 🚬😀😀🤙🤙 I notice most of the info I see is someone's interpretation so it's a bit of a guessing game but I have a history of brewing and thermodynamic so it's a great hobby for that 🤣🤣

[@ramsesosirus]

I've had a lot of fun making stuff at home with that same press! I put the tobacco in a zipperless sandwich bag first, then coat both end caps (one is a trimmed mason jar lid over the holes) in parchment paper. Then I just peel off the sandwich bag in one piece and it holds most of the goo as well. I do as little as 2 days in the press sometimes (tighten every few hours a bit) just to marry the flavors, and it expands about twice the size in a few days but crumbles easily for smoking. I also use two of the different press caps, one for aromatics and one for the others to avoid spreading the gooey smell (My press came with like 5 different noodle caps)

[@atnoahshouse]

Nice. Great idea with the mason jar lid. I have been using foil. What blends have you been coming up with? I have a video where I pressed Northwoods from Boswell’s and I swear I was better out of the press. Thanks for the view and comment……..

[@ramsesosirus]

@@atnoahshouse Yes, I was able to just cut the mason jar lid to size with (old) scissors easily and a piece of doubled over duct tape to hold in place. The press seems to make everything better! I salvaged some Smoker's Pride Cherry (my first purchase) by pressing it 50/50 with black cavendish- it's at least smokable now. Otherwise I like to press things with dark fired Kentucky as it's my favorite but a bit strong on it's own. I tried Molto Dolce and dark Fired Kentucky to try and get the aromatic aroma with some kick- haven't tried it yet! Also dark fired Kentucky and Virginias to try and get a homemade version of Old Dark Fired

[@atnoahshouse]

@@ramsesosirus Wow sounds like some great blends…..

[@Larry-q5t]

@@ramsesosirus so now I know why flake has more flavor than ribbon perfect example macbarron vanilla cream the ribbon cut is not as good as the flake

[@ramsesosirus]

@@Larry-q5t I started mixing ODF cube cut flakes with the ready rubbed 50/50 to save a bit on money and it helps it burn, while also keeping some of the more flake flavor. Worth a try, I don't mix a bunch at a time though in case I want just the flake or the ready rubbed.

[@gregoryhorwitz7373]

I just found this channel. Very watchable. Informative, relaxing, and homey. I briefly looked at your playlists. Is there any video regarding pressing tobaccos. Do you reference your equipment (press). Do you know of any others (KZbinrs) that do this?

[@atnoahshouse]

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the kind words. I’ve only pressed a few tobaccos on the channel. I actually have one in the press now that I am going to take out this weekend. As far as the press it’s a small pasta press from amazon. It was around 20 dollars. If you search for pressing videos there are several channels that come up. Have a look around the channel once again thanks for stopping by……..

[@burneshollyman2621]

The "goo" might be the perique. It is really gooey when made in bulk.

[@richardchartier3023]

I had more than 4 oz. of medium Burley and a medium Vaginia that I didn't know what to do with so I thought that if I made it into a mild Aromatic I'd like it. What I added to this Burley and Vaginia was a little of Captain black and even less Old Toby both left overs. It turned out to be what I wanted, not to have a flat tobacco anymore but now just slightly Aromatic. I was careful to use just a little Captain Black and a third of that the Old Toby and I like it now.

[@atnoahshouse]

Nice. Great to hear about everyone’s personal blends……..

[@TheNewMediaoftheDawn]

I’ve used Captain Black too, it actually blends well and is less chemical.

[@richardchartier3023]

Nice one!

[@bryanauer]

dude, you're cool! I smoked a nice bowl of GL Pease while you smoked your crumble cake.

[@gnarkillgnarkill7725]

Great video❤ To keep those sugars in, or as you call it "goo", I think I would use a little less pressure and let it set for about a month. Release the pressure for about 24 hours, then press it again for another month. Release it for 24 hours and do this a third time. That way, you don't lose as much flavor in the juices. I would also use parchment rather than wax paper.

[@atnoahshouse]

Thanks for the advise. The next couple I did I used parchment paper, worked out well. This was one of my favourite home blends. Thanks for stopping by…….

[@jbafternoonpiper404]

Noah I really liked this video. I've been looking for a press and I'm going to order one like yours. What did you use to block the holes on the bottom of the press? As far as wrapping the tobacco in wax paper did you just make a cylinder out of the paper slide it in the tube and then fill it with the tobacco? Hoping to press my first plug after the Holidays. Thanks for sharing... JB

[@atnoahshouse]

Thanks for the kind comment. As far as the holes I just used 3 layers of foil. Yes I just cut some wax paper rolled it up, let it unroll in the tube. Filled it, folded the top over and pressed it. It not a perfect system but it does a pretty good job. This was my third try at pressing some tobacco. Look forward to your pressing……

[@donjuanthepiper7166]

You are pressing too hard if its oozing "juice" that juice or goo as you call it is mainly the oils from the tobacco. When you press the oils out like that you sacrifice some of the flavor they contain.

[@allffl3793]

Infatti! Ma che senso ha?

[@richardchartier3023]

I was wondering about that.

[@tomsmith5901]

The goo likely comes from casing put onto the tobacco by the manufacturer.

[@donjuanthepiper7166]

maybe some, but ive seen the same thing happen to non cased blends@@tomsmith5901

I saw a video about a perique farmer and black goo also came out when he pressed the leaves into barrels.

When you press already cut tobacco, then it's called crumble cake, but when you stack whole leaf on top of each other and press them, then it's called a plug. At least that's my understanding of it.

Well it looked like a plug to me. Rubbed out and smoked like a dream……

[@atnoahshouse]

I say give it a go. I have made a few that went in the bin that's for sure, but I have enjoyed several. I think the key is to smoke a little of each component before blending to get a good feel for what they will bring to the blend. try it and let us know

[@andrewstevenson1955]

I suspect it’s the Perique that is causing you difficulties

[@dustindegrand5735]

The goo is the sugars coming out of the Tobacco.
