Guys, okay before you open fire on me.... I have read repeatedly to use a soft flame with my pipes.
But, I smoke outside 90% of the time. It is a huge struggle using a soft flame due to the wind... and I don't feel I get a great light (and my soft flame lighter is a great Xicar pipe lighter). So, I have experimented with using my torch but holding it a good distance from the briar and holding it perfectly vertical... also only holding it there for a very short period of time. I find that I am getting a good light on the pipe with a great smoke and little struggle.
Am I really doing that much damage with this method? Anyone else experimented with this?
Thanks!
