Been bored tonight and started looking at a pipe forum. Found a bunch of posts about guys "cleaning" their briars after a smoke by running them under the faucet. Mind you, this was not one guy who posted numerous times...but a bunch of different people. The posts were fairly new, also. From 2021 or so.
I've smoked a pipe off and on for going on 30 years. This sounds like a terrible idea to me. Water, wood and heat can't be a good combination. Is this something new? Do any of you guys do it? The proponents claim it gets rid of ghosting. I may need to search more under this topic- I was looking up dedicating blends to certain pipes.
