I like cake actually. The advantage of a reamer imo is that I don’t ream to the bottom of the bowl. I’m able to leave a bit of cake close to the bottom of the bowl.
Then the pipers who say “don’t you smoke to the bottom of the bowl” contingent leave me alone. ;)

Mark up another fail for me then since I can't ever seem to get to the bottom, BOTTOM of a bowl, except in very rare occasions!

Smoke five brothers or ryback. You'll get there every time

Doubtful. I'd be on the ground in the fetal position from nicotine about 3-5 puffs into the pipe which means I would NEVER make it to the bottom of either of those!

You miss my point bud... When I stopped listening and by that I mean giving a rip to what the "experts" pontificated, I stopped "failing" and started enjoying.

Hear everyone, listen to a some, ignore others. You'll find your way.

Fred Hanna is a well known pipe smoker and author and if I'm not mistaken, he has developed a few blends. He is a collector of straight grain pipes. If memory serves, it was years ago when I read his book(s?), he does not smoke to the bottom of the bowl and doesn't care if anyone likes it or not. I believe he's not much into cake either. I'm not putting him up as an expert, but just another voice who sees it another way.

Eh you smoke otc blends and aro's, you're not a real pipe smoker. Your opinion is useless to the rest of us.
