[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 436250, member: 1723"] IMHO, a pipe that has been smoked with Lakelands will retain that character from that point on. Case in point, I once sent a beautiful Tobbaconist, Inc Poker into Walker for treatment in their Ozone chamber to remove the "L" factor. It was in there a full week, and received bowl reaming as well. The result was semi-successful. While the "L" character was reduced it was clearly still there and remains. Not so much in the top of the bowl, but certainly in the final moments. Great pity, as it's a dandy pipe and I love it in all other respects. And I've been trying to smoke the ghost out of it but so far have not had success. Could be that I'm just particularly sensitive to that character. But it's still there and bothers me. No, I've not done the treatments recommended here like retort and such. Not within my scope. Guess I'll just carry on and hope it will exorcise in due course. I really love the pipe. Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
