[QUOTE="Jevverrett, post: 507275, member: 3706"] I’m smoking it right now. Just as cool and sweet as ever. (After I tweaked the tenon a bit) First thing I did was smell it lol. I got nervous after I saw the reply posts on my phone earlier today. Very faint whiff of olive oil, but most of the shine is gone since last night. No flavor change that I can notice either. I did some more reading last night on all this. Apparently, before using beeswax on pipes whale oil was used to help them color. I guess it worked very well, bc all the really old meers you see are well colored. Seeing as how that became extremely illegal, melted beeswax came into fashion. It would make sense some kind of natural oil would work best so long as it’s not petrol based. [/QUOTE]
