thanks for the lesson on how to clean a pipe. my dad's dad smoke pipe and I was only about five years old and I remember him cleaning. thanks for video have a great day.
Massey1105driver - I try to clean each day's pipe that evening, but I got behind and yep, really easy if done regularly. pipe tobacco is still the only tobacco not taxed to death as cigarettes and cigars are. seems there is protection for the pipe smoker and I wonder how much longer that will last. thanks for watching.
Thanks for this video. I've been wasting pipe cleaners trying to dry out the alcohol when I could just let it sit and dry out on its own. Hope you're safe and well.
good times, piddling around cleaning pipes.always liked kaywoodies and some of the Dr.grabow filter pipes.carter hall and prince Albert in the can.dad liked Kentucky club,grandpa liked half and half.take care bud
Dan Van Hoose - my Peterson pipes are my best smokers. many different blends so I'm never board with the same old tasting tobacco. Chocolate, honey and cherry are some favorites. thanks for commenting.
Very informative and enjoyable! I do pretty much the same thing, except that for the part where you used a paper towel, I use a baby wipe (got into them when we had small children; they are great for lots of things). Also, instead of the alcohol, I use vodka. Not that my way is better or anything, just different. You have more pipes in your rotation than I do! Thanks, always fun to check out another pipe smoker's methods :-)
defuse56 - vodka? I've used vanilla brandy. it cleaned good but was not an acceptable flavor lingering in the pipe. thanks for sharing your thoughts in your comment with me.
Farm Life Oregon - dirty wet pipes smoke so bad one would simply give up and never find the enjoyment of good tobacco without routine cleanings. thanks for watching.
Ted Kahler - pipes need to rest so they have time to dry out. tobacco has a lot of moisture in it that soak into the wood. the best tobacco in the world will taste bitter in a wet pipe. 4 or 5 days of rest will allow the wood to dry. thanks for watching.
Do you smoke any clay pipes? My grandfather used to make clay pipes. He had molds and baked them in the backyard. He made a wood stem for his pipes . I have never tried to smoke one . But , I have always been interested in it . Thanks for sharing.
Clint Walton - no clay pipes in my collection. briar wood only but I want to try a Meerschaum pipe because I was told they smoke cool and dry. Meerschaum is the modern day version of clay. thanks for watching and commenting.
Im new to this. How often do i clean it like this ? And can I use whiskey like 40-50% instead of the one u are using ? And how long shall it rest when its cleaned like this before i can use it again ? Thanks
Cleaning a pipe and then infusing a pipe with a particular flavor are two totally different things. Stick with isopropyl alcohol for cleaning. Try whatever infusions you think you might like. Allow at least 3 days for the alcohol to dry out of the pipe before you infuse the pipe with some particular flavor that you might like to attempt to enjoy. There was a cherry bourbon by Jim Beam I wouldn't drink the stuff but it did make a nice infusion with the cherry coming out rather nicely. 🙂☕

What about the little bit of alcohal on the pipe cleaner that goes in the mouth piece....Do you clean it? That is do you insert a rolled up tissue or something to remove the alcahol?
www.cvs.com/shop/cvs-health-70-isopropyl-rubbing-alcohol-unscented-prodid-1011770 I never knew an unscented isopropyl alcohol existed I'm going to have to get some of this and give it a try thanks for telling me about it. And thanks for dropping by the channel I hope you'll come back and look at some of the farming videos.🙂☕
What`s the story behind the Canadian one dollar bills on the wall. Your in North Carolina, right?. We use the $1 coin now, "The Loonie" because it has a loon on it, not because most of us are loonie, LOL. Paper dollar bills are not very common at all. I smoke a pipe occasionally but my cousin smokes a pipe all the time. I'm a big, big cash cropper , bout same size as yourself. LOL Thanks SBFarmer. doug. SW ontario.
Douglas Laramie - from 1984 till 2001 I worked for a Canadian based company and traveled frequently to Canada. the Canadian money was the first multi colored money I had ever seen so I brought some home and stapled it to the wall in my shop to enjoy looking at. do some videos and Ill be one of your subscribers so I can enjoy seeing parts of Canada. I enjoyed my leisure time in rural areas north of Ottawa. thanks for commenting.
What I've always found to be true is a dry pipe smokes much better than a wet pipe. Having enough pipes in your collection to have a seven-day rotation has always worked perfect for me. Thanks for watching.
They work I have used them. Right now I am searching for some more bristle tip cleaners made by BJ Long company. thank you very much for watching this video.🙂
@@SoybeanFarmer3300 I know it's an old comment, but the reason it cleans better is because it has a higher water content meaning it doesn't evaporate as quickly, which in turn means it has more time to act. It dissolves oils and this is mostly what is making our pipes sticky and stinky. Take care
@@SoybeanFarmer3300 nice of you to answer! Another great way of cleaning, although it is for deep cleaning purposes, is a retort. I find it to be cheap and easy, and it also does a lot that can't be done using pipe cleaners, and it is supposed to be safer than the salt and alchohol method.
as I'm sitting here watching this, I'm asking myself... the bible says. touch not the unclean thing, I know that refers to drinking and smoking, but I guess the question is... is smoking cigars just like smoking in general? are cigars bad for a person's health like smoking is?
North east Ohio farmer - Rom 14:14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. read Rom 14:12 to 14:23 now let The Holy Spirit lead you into understanding. peace be with you.
