Have you ever....

[pipedisciple]

I've been smoking for a time but I still get excited when I get a new pipe (Pete Aran Bulldog) I have a tendency to smoke it fast for some reason unknown to me. Well I did it this past weekend and didn't just get tongue bite, I burned the crap out of my tongue. I'm just now getting to the point where it doesn't hurt. I don't know why but it'same with every new pipe. Any thoughts or am I just crazy. :crazy:

I hate tongue burn...I get it from new tobacco that I can't wait to dry...did you get a fresh tin of tobacco with the new pipe?

Has only happened to me when I first tried an English blend while in Chicago. I think it had something to do with the crazy wind.

Crazy. Don't burn yerself briar bro. You have a strong inner desire to hurt yourself, based on latent suspicion that tobacco prices will soon double or triple and therefore you must smoke rapidly in order to reorder baccy before the price skyrockets.This is coupled with the juvenile excitement when you receive a new briar. That said..... I have also done the same, with lesser self inflicted tongue wounds. Take one (1) valium 2 hrs. before unwrapping your newest pipe purchase......Dr.L. Dog :wink:

If I smoke multiple bowls within a few days I get an unpleasant tongue burn as well. Not sure if I'm smoking to fast or if my tongue is just sensitive. I try to limit my pipes to where I'm not getting my tongue burnt to crap.

Multiple bowls within a few days? Not sure what that means mate. I smoke multiple bowls per morning, afternoon and evening hahahhhaa. About 10 per day. However, my mouth roof and tounge do dry out badly and nothing I can do about it. I could cut down, but that would be no fun

Well I don't smoke a pipe everyday, but if I do have a pipe with 1-2 bowls one day and then say another pipe with 1-2 bowls the next day then my tongue gets really sensitive. I'm such a pipe newb. LOL I find it best to just alternate between my pipes and cigars and that keeps the tongue happy and not sensitive.

I have recently received a lot of new pipes and have heated a few up to the point that I had to let them cool for a few minutes before I could continue. When I get a new pipe in I make sure that I dry the tobacco properly before I load it up, and then pay attention to how I am smoking. I try and make sure that I am not puffing to hard because I have a tendency to lose my cadence and can heat up my bowl.
