[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 451000, member: 1723"] The reports of the Zippo fuel tainting the 'baccy are exaggerated afaic David. The aroma of it burns off after the flame is lit in less than a second, and there's no danger of it influencing the nature of the 'baccy. I've only ever used the fuel in the black cans, and apparently this formula is less reactive than the previous iteration. My sole gripe with a Zippo is that the unit needs to be refuelled frequently as the fuel seems to evaporate quickly through the casing body. There's been posts where some folks have mitigated this by wrapping the internal body with tape or using a food grade grease, but I've not tried this. Hence, my Zippo doesn't see much action these days. But I do like it. HTH Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
