I just recieved a new 2012, Peterson St Patrick's Day #87 Apple. Should I smoke it? I want to!!!! Is this the type of pipe that is a collector? I'm a bit of a pipe newbie and I have a few reliable smokers I enjoy.
Right, smoke some 1/4 bowls for a while then move to half bowls to build some cake at the heel, cake is important, do some reseach about building cake in your pipe.Start out with small loads to season it.
