[QUOTE="FibberMcGee, post: 53507, member: 676"] With a new pipe, I usually smoke only half bowls in it for the first several smokes and it seems to promote more even cake building all the way down the bowl. Then I gradually increase the level from half each time until I am smoking a full bowl. Some people just fill the whole thing up from the start and have no problems, but for me it works best to start with half bowls. And just as an fyi, Peterson usually stains their pipes by dipping them into the stain. The inside of the bowl gets stained as well. You will probably get a bit of an icky flavor from that for the first couple of bowls, (at least I usually do with a new Pete). Once broken in, Petes provide a pretty darn good smoke. As Yak said. take it slow and easy. [/QUOTE]
