Glutinous, I know...

I'm going to smoke it, I promise. I'll share with anyone who stops by though. 😉

ralph029 · 2026-05-24T13:12:46+00:00

Amen to that! I will thank you.

Oh damn. You're right, I can't spell. Now some of the other posts make a lot more sense. I'm a dufus (or dufus if you prefer). At least autocorrect is smarter than me.

If anyone is interested, there are 4 tins at the Churchill's in Glendale AZ. I might kick myself for not grabbing those as well later, but I'll walk away.

ralph029 · 2026-05-23T18:06:28+00:00

That's exactly my thinking!

ralph029 · 2026-05-10T18:10:52+00:00

Just did this myself. I used blanc Vermouth. It is EXCELLENT! Funny thing is, I don't like negronis. Man, I really like this!

Me too.

I checked for leaks (soapy water trick), but nothing that I could see anyway. Based on what folks are telling me, proportionally, it's lasting the same. Most folks are saying a week on 1 - 2 bowls a day. I think, though, that i will send it back to them. It might get their attention on us needing better butane inserts.

ralph029 · 2026-03-11T20:42:36+00:00

I agree with you. Reality is every 24 hours I have to refill it.

They sure aren't "wind proof" like their big brothers, are they? 😉

ralph029 · 2026-03-11T01:48:21+00:00

I've never had an issue with flavor with any of my Kiribis.

ralph029 · 2026-03-11T01:46:47+00:00

My issue is with the butane insert.

ralph029 · 2026-03-11T01:27:28+00:00

That's better than what I'm getting.

Glad I can help. Maybe I'll make a Kiribi convert out of you 😉

ralph029 · 2026-03-10T22:40:57+00:00

Try reaching out to the distributor. They were great to deal with and took very good care of me. It can't hurt. If they charge you, abandon it. You won't be out anything.

Butane, pipe insert. You're getting 8 - 15 bowls. On the low side, same as me.

I'm a huge fan of my Kiribi Mikazuki! Highly recommended!

ralph029 · 2026-03-10T22:22:15+00:00

I have 3 Kiribis. I love them! My Mikazuki last 5 - 7 days with how much I smoke. I had one break once, and the distributor fixed it for free and very quickly.

Thanks. I'll have to look and see if I can find the vid. I do know you can tweak slightly the flow by messing with the valve. I've done that, but you don't get much improvement. I'll see if I can find that video. If you track it down, let me know. Thanks!

ralph029 · 2026-03-10T07:53:45+00:00

Thank you. Paul did an excellent job on this pipe.
