Moisture in My Churchwarden Pestering Me

[anotherbob]

The way I see it, the Cobbit is a gateway drug. You start out as an ordinary pipe douche, probably smoking cult blood red moon.

the weirdo in the back in the green shirt? Or the normal looking guy with a staff (I assume he's a Shepard)?

ROFL
So they turn into you?!?!

Uh, no.

I smoke a churchwarden sometimes (love it actually) and I get moisture buildup as well. Pipe cleaner insertion takes care of it. Not really a huge deal

 

[BROBS]

Uh, no.

I meant only that you have a slight beard-semblance.

I feel like an idiot. Also I find that more so near the end of the bowl then at the beginning of a bowl that the more level I keep the bowl as in holding the pipe pretty much straight out keeps it from gurgles but if I tilt it forward it's more likely to gurgle.

I have been having the same issue. I have researched a little bit and have found it may be due to wet tobacco. I have taken my next smoke out of the container to dry for a couple hours (per suggestions). Will see if that helps. Maybe give it a try as well.

As was mentioned drier tobacco and attention to cadence help a lot with any pipe.

I smoke churchwardens fairly often, especially if I’ll be reading. The geometry works well for me. If I get an offensive gurgle a quick pass with a pipe cleaner fixes things.
