In another post I've mentioned a little about some of the awful tastes I get in my pipes. I've come to the conclusion that a lot of this has to do with them being wet at the bottom (as the bottom is when the smoke starts to get the awful taste). I'm assuming that having a better cake on the bottom will help aleviate this to some degree. However, that seems to be the one place where a cake doesn't want to form!
I've tried smoking half bowls. I've tried smoking the tobacco until it just won't smoke anymore (and still-- STILL!-- there are always those three or four scraps of tobacco that refuse to burn). I've tried mollases. I've tried saliva. What am I doing wrong?
I know I should probably give my pipes longer to rest, but that's difficult as I only own a few and I'm a very heavy smoker transitioning away from cigarettes. Still, I try to give each pipe a day off after I've been smoking it for a day. Am I supposed to smoke them once and then leave them alone for a day?
