The Merrick is like the Dagner which have. The bowl is shallow compared to the Tom Sawyer or the Country Gentleman which I perfer for flakes if I'm using a cob. I use my sitter cobs mostly for shag cuts or ribbon.

According to MM the bowl has the same dimensions as the Riverboat Gambler, which I find has a definite place in my rotation.

I have not tried a country Gentleman for flakes as I thought the bowl might be a bit on the large size. Typically, how long does it take you to smoke through a flake in the CG?

I reckon around 45 minutes. Of course that's my personal preference for deeper bowls for flakes like the Twain. I love cobs and I'm certain the Merrick will fit your needs. There's no "right" way, just what works for you.
