Is it anyone else's experience that B-C pipes tend to burn hot? I am packing it as I usually do (three layer but still "springy" and not overly hard) and am trying to build the cake up. Do these pipes burn hot until broken in? I am noticing a few white spots on the walls, I am afraid this is a sign of possible impending burnout. If this is true, how can I avoid that? I really like the look of this pipe, and I don't want to lose it. Any tips or info from you B-C smokers or anyone would be greatly appreciated as always. |

I have only owned one BC pipe, a longed stem churchwarden. The exterior of the pipe was varnished and it smoked very hot even though it had the long stem. I sold it on ebay only after a couple of bowls. Bill |

I have a BC Trocadero 3/4 bent that smokes just fine. I have never had a problem with it burning hot. |

Both of my BC pipes smoked extremely hot until broken in. Now they smoke just fine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think I'll go on by the river with my cherry, cherry wine I believe I'll go walking by the railroad with my cherry, cherry wine If I pass the rumbling station where the lonesome engine drivers pine... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
