I just started smoking a few months ago and i got myself 2 cobs and a nice blue savinelli Arcobaleno.
The first few smokes i noticed some of the blue came off on my hand. When i would take out the balsa filter at the end i noticed it also picked up some 'blue'. I also noticed the bowl developed some texture in the originally solid blue dye.
I used to buff if a little with a papertowel so that the blue dye would 're-dry' smooth.
It's stopped happening. No more getting blue everywhere.
But is that normal?
Does it mean I'm smoking hot?
(I think i smoke pretty cool.. my bowls last 45min to an hr. it never gets too hot to hold. But maybe it was a little hot in the beginning when i didnt know heat was a problem. I do smoke aromatics and a lot of virginias which i think are known to smoke hot.)
Is this a heat thing?
