Re: Storing Cake
Well, I'm no expert, but if I know I'm going to be smoking a caked blend fairly regularly and soon, I rub it out. If I expect to put it away I leave it as cake. This seems to keep it fresher longer, IMHO.
On a related note, anything that comes in the old style tins, IOW not airtight, goes immediately into a Mason Jar. If the tin has the plastic lid, I leave it in that.
Re: Storing Cake
The main thing is to remember that you can't have your cake and smoke it too.

Re: Storing Cake
It will store fine either way. Leaving it as a cake for long term storage may help the flavors meld together better.

Re: What did you listen to with your smoke?
The mouse on an exercise wheel. I think earworms keep it busy so I don't think about the tragedy of human behavior too much. I do regret the constant exposure to pop music in my teenage years.
