Yesterday I got this in the mail.....
My Perfect Pipe! Thank you
@PerfectPipe! Part of the NOTM prize package, and I couldn't wait to try this puppy out. I waited until this morning so I could try it from scratch as the first buzz of the day.
Smoking out of the Perfect Pipe is definitely a different experience. Basically just a grind, fill, tamp, and light like a cigar. The filter in the mouth end is almost exactly like a cigarette filter, and you change it with each new bowl.
A bowl fully packed and tamped down pretty good in this pipe gave me four long, slow draw hits. This is exactly as advertised. The hit feels different than any other way I smoke, I would think primarily due to the filter. It is a cleaner, smoother hit. Perhaps not with the "heft" of a bonghit or hit off a joint, since the smoke is filtered.
I smoked one bowl of the Blueberry. The amount of bud was WAY less than I would have put into my bong to smoke. So I would have to say that their claim that it will save you a lot of weed is WAY true. If I only smoked out of this my weed would last forever. The one bowl of ground weed out of the Perfect Pipe got me every bit as high as my usual morning bonghit, and then some. I will have to experiment some more to further assess how the cleanliness of the smoke affects the buzz, but early returns are positive.
So then I wanted to see how it would do with a packed bowl of kief.
It works with kief too. Really well. In the case of the kief bowl, it had a definite impact on the smoothness of the kief. A straight bowl of kief (I never do that really) would make me cough like a demon no matter how clean it is. Smoking it from the Perfect Pipe I didn't cough at all. It tasted like a dream. Clean kief tastes fabulous. For this test I used the kief from the scrog that went hermie a few grows back. It burns up much faster than the weed obviously, but I still got two gigantic, awesome draws from one packed pipe.
I might like it better for kief!!
Overall I really like this thing. I can already see that with the little round plastic jar for ground bud, the extra pipe and filters and screens, and cool plastic end caps to protect the glass, not to mention that all of that comes in the excellent little carrying case in the picture - this has just become my go to pipe for gigs!!! It's perfect for that!!! And thanks again to the Perfect Pipe folks for being a dedicated sponsor to all of us here at 420. Most appreciated!!
takes a couple weeks to come back to life though and a couple after that to take cuts but its giving patience I never did have! Have you heard about cloned mothers loosing characteristics ever? Are your bonsai moms clones or from seed?
