[QUOTE="Kapnismologist, post: 106194, member: 487"] Before starting to try this 'super slow smoke' method, I typically would just smoke the first half-dozen or so bowls carefully and that would be it. I charred chambers that way. I have tried the 'half-bowls building up to full bowls' method as well, and found that works great for getting the sometimes difficult bottom of the bowl caked before the top to be sure! I am increasingly beginning to think however that whichever way you do it, it is more about allowing the tars/resins to build more than anything else - and that low temperatures are the way to get the most tar/resins on the chamber wall. I wish I could have this lab tested - I am just speculating about the byproducts of tobacco combustion based on unscientific observation. But then again, Kapnismology is more of an art than a science! [/QUOTE]
