How To Maintain Your Tobacco Pipe

 The choice of alcohol used for cleaning is a matter of preference, as the type of alcohol used tends to affect the sweetness and flavor of the pipe. For the best smoking pleasure, it is recommended to clean the pipe after each use. If there is a thick layer of carbon on the bowl, it is best to scrape it off immediately after smoking, while the bowl is still hot. Gently wipe the inside of the groove and the tube shaft with a cotton swab moistened with alcohol. 

Now repeat the process using a soft-bristled dry pipe cleaner to remove dirt and dried alcohol residue. Then clean the bowl using the alcohol-soaked technique from the previous steps. After expanding the bowl and removing any loose particles, follow the procedure above using an alcohol-soaked pipe cleaner to complete the cleaning. A method often used for so-called "summer" used pipes, soaking the bowl with salt and alcohol is a great way to deep clean. 

If you want, you can insert a regular pipe cleaner into the stem of the tube before placing it back on the rack to absorb any residual moisture, but if you use pipe cleaners diligently, this is not necessary. After cleaning, leave the pipe for a day or so before smoking to allow the alcohol to completely evaporate. After cleaning is complete, leave the pipe for a day or so before smoking to allow the alcohol to completely evaporate. 

Now that you've completed one of the aforementioned cleaning modes we've detailed, it's important to let the tube dry for at least 24 hours before using it again. After you've finished your bowl, you usually want to clean your pipe quickly to keep it in optimal smoking condition. Place the tube up (for example, make a bowl out of aluminum foil and press down on the tube) to avoid spilling the salt, and let it rest for 24 hours. Thoroughly clean the bowl of salt and set the pipe aside overnight to dry completely. 

Carefully put the stem back into the bowl and wipe the tube with a soft cloth. Gently push the pipe cleaner back and forth on the stem to absorb moisture and remove ashes from the stem and mouthpiece. Remove and spin it or use a different pipe cleaner and repeat the process until the pipe cleaner is clean. 

Use a Q-tip and dip it in alcohol, then clean the end of the tube. If the edge of your tubes starts to take on a slight dark tint, it can usually be removed by soaking saliva in pipe cleaner and gently rubbing the edge of the tube with it. 

Cleaning with salt, this practice will ensure that your wood pipe is as good as new. You can also thoroughly clean the rod vent by periodically cleaning it with a brush dipped in alcohol or "pipe sweetener". Using a cotton swab or brush with a stem, clean the spike, the part of the tube where the stem joins the bowl (in a pinch, a regular double-folded brush will do). Using a cotton swab or brush with a stem, clean the groove, the part of the tube where the stem joins the bowl. 

Then fill the bowl of the pipe with coarse salt, such as kosher. Add alcohol to the rim of the bowl, then leave the tube with the mixture overnight. 

The first step is simply to prepare the tube; if your pipe has been smoked before, pass the pipe brush through the tip and out of the vent, tap on the points and gently blow through the mouthpiece. Before each smoking, run a brush, bristle or regular, over the barrel to remove any remaining ash and dots, and tap the cork head or palm gently with the pipe to remove these obstructions from the bowl. 

Smoke your pipe carefully and evenly, as smoking too vigorously can burn your tongue and damage the bowl due to overheating. If the bowl gets too hot to hold against your cheek, you need to put down the pipe and let it cool down. To dump the ash, hold the bowl in your hand, not the rod, and tap the pipe against a soft surface. The most important thing to do after you've smoked your pipe is to blow hard into the mouthpiece (we recommend you do this outside). 

This works in the vast majority of cases; however, if the mouthpiece is still too difficult to remove, smoke the pipe, let it cool, and try removing the mouthpiece again. 

Sometimes we recommend cleaning pipes more thoroughly than just plugging the pipe after smoking. Smoking pipes usually need to be cleaned at three intervals; firstly, basic cleaning after each smoke; secondly, every few vapors can be cleaned with alcohol for more thorough cleaning; finally, the tube must be taken apart and thoroughly cleaned about once a month, depending on usage. Before smoking a pipe, you need to rub down these parts of the pipe with a pipe brush to make sure it is clean. 

We also recommend leaving some tobacco at the bottom of the pipe and not smoking it all the way to the bottom of the bowl. While holding the pipe, drip the tobacco strands into the bowl of the pipe until it is full, being careful not to pinch the melted tobacco, thereby recreating the clumps you just got rid of. Use a pick (from pipe tools) and gently loosen the ashes without disturbing the tobacco More

What Is The Ring Gauge Of A Cigar?

 A ring gauge is simply a measurement of a cigars diameter in inches, 64/64ths being the same as an inch. Measuring in the one-inch range or higher, any cigar that has a ring gauge of 60 and above is going to be a mighty smoking machine. A cigar with a larger ring gauge will be fuller, complex flavor, and produce a larger amount of smoke than one with a smaller ring gauge.  A cigar with a thicker ring gauge will probably have cooler smoke because there is more air that can get in. If you find smoking one cigar takes too long, or you often find that you cannot finish the smoking session, it may be an idea to try a smaller-ring gauge cig . That mass of tobacco within is always going to be hit harder, so be sure to smoke larger ring gauges slower than normal in order to avoid smoking through your cigars perspiration.  Think of it like this, if 1/16th of an inch is 1 ring gauge, a 60-ring gauge is nearly an inch thick -- it is a big cigar. All you really need to know is that...
