A man shows how he cleans his pipe 

Awesome, thank you! I was a little self-conscious about this one because I don't usually do tutorial videos. Glad to have you on board.

Thank you. It was an amazing Bari estate pipe that broke . I miss it. 😥

I go the high proof bourbon route for my deep cleanings. Mostly because I have a lot on hand at all times, so I don't have to go out and buy Everclear or something more neutral

I don't use a filter, so I don't know that I would be qualified to answer that question personally-I have heard every 2 or 3 smokes though.

I change mine every time, but I also enjoy different blends everytime

Nice. I remember when I first started, I didn't even know I could take the stem off . Hopefully this video will be helpful for some of the newer pipers.

@@amanrelaxes I'm relatively new to pipe smoking but tbf I did watch a bunch of videos about it before buying my first, so I may have picked things up from great channels like the Muttonchop Piper. Just watched the deep cleaning series of his and that's something I'm going to have to do soon. I smoke a lot of bowls and I've never deep cleaned lol, so I better place an order for all the equipment

Well good for you, man. I started 15 years ago, and I was sort of on my own save for an old guy I met up with every once in a blue moon.

@@amanrelaxes Wow you do look youthful then. 15 years ago, I'd be nearly 10, and the only pipe I had ever seen in person was in my deceased granddad's cabinet.

@@electricelf-music Thanks! I was youthful when I started-21 years old.

You're welcome! I do not smoke daily-anywhere from 1 to 4 times a week depending on life, and I rarely smoke more than a single bowl in a day. It would be hard to calculate, but I always buy a ton at a time.

@@amanrelaxes I got a bag of 50 pipe cleaners as part of my starter package, looks like I will need many many more :)

@@lugburz7539 Oh yeah, I usually order 200 or more at a time.

Interesting-is it something you mix together yourself? I know some factory pipes come with a coating, but I hadn't heard of individuals doing it.

​@@amanrelaxes yeah, I make it. It's super simple. I'll be putting up a video about before the end of the month. You've probably heard of the honey treatment. That's not what I do. Others use a mixture of sour cream or yogurt and carbon (charcoal). That's weird in my mind. others use a watered down version of @canerodpiper's pipe mortar recipe. The method I settled on for my estate and new pipes I read about in a pipe forum. Made perfect sense to me. I had to perfect the recipe, but the idea was not original to me. I now call it bowl icing. It's powdered sugar, charcoal, and water. Works great!

@@LifeWithAPipe Cool. Hopefully the algorithm is kind enough to remind me when that video gets posted.

never mind. you explain everything in the second half of the video. 👍

@@adz-ql6kv Good man!
