Ok I'm curious as to everyone's preferred pipe dimensions for smoking Va's and Va/Per's.
Do you prefer a conical bowl such as a Dublin? Do you prefer a narrower bowl? How narrow is too narrow? How wide is too wide?
I generally prefer a taller narrower bowl. Around .8 diameter and 1.6 or so for the depth is around my sweet spot. I've yet to own a Dublin but will soon hopefully.
Edit: I need a disclaimer that says I still have issues finding taste in some Va's but I'm trying to smoke them more frequently to try and discover what I'm missing. I do smoke slowly just sipping and I find them very one dimensional. Although some Va/Per's like Annie Kake I've found that I love the bready sort of taste.
