Hi everyone,
For my next pipe acquisition (in 6-9 months time), i am contemplating to get a pipe with a bakelite stem.
I did some light research and keep reading that bakelite is toxic. Also that cleaning it will be difficult with alcohol.
Does anyone here have a recently made Bakelite pipe stem?
If so, what are the do's and don'ts?
Would you recommend it? pros and cons?
Thank you in advance
