I've heard many period in the history that sandblasted pipes smoke cooler than smooth pipes due to the better outside area. After many years of captivating this to be a somewhat declaration I determined to put it to the examination. Here's how I set up the examination.
* Two the same, new Supinely Model 316 pipes (one country/sandblast and one smooth matte) were used.
* every was smoked ten period over a ten day era for the reason of breaking them in.
* Gawith & Hoggarth Balkan Blend was second-hand completely for break in and testing.
* Each was filled and crowded to the top with an equivalent piece of tobacco for the test.
* Each was placed in an artificial failure pipe stand.
* Each was not enthused from the pipe stand or touched during the test.
* Each was lit with 3 matches.
* Each recognized 1 full exemplify on the pipe each 30 seconds.
* Each was tamped each 10 draws.
* Test was conducted 10 minutes into the bowl.
* Bowl hotness was taken using a very well point metal probe emotionally concerned to digital thermometers (identical models) that were located on the correct side of the bowl at the in the center point and under arrest tight to the bowl with the help of the artificial pipe stand.
* At 30 minutes both pipes were allowed to go out.
Here are my comments during the test.
* The country pipe was really hotter during the first 10 minutes prior to "representative testing".
* At the 10 minute point the country was 6 degrees hotter the smooth.
* At 15 minutes the rustic was 4 degrees cooler.
* At 20 minutes the rustic was 2.5 degrees cooler.
* At 25 minutes the rustic was 3.5 degrees cooler.
* At 30 minutes the rustic was 4 degrees cooler.
* At 35 minutes (after the pipes went out) the rustic was 18 degrees cooler.
So there you have it. The country pipe did certainly smoke cooler but I'd have to say that the a small number of degrees during the first 30 minutes hardly constitutes a "cooler smoking pipe". I could not tell the dissimilarity. What I did notice was how quick the rustic pipe cooled down subsequent to the tobacco went out as compared to the smooth. Hmmmmmm. Happy Smoking.
