Do all pipes necessarily burn the tongue, or is it somehow possible to avoid tongue-bite?

There are three main reasons why a pipe occasionally "bites" the tongue: (1) The pipe may not be clean. This is easily remedied by a thorough pipe-cleaning job; (2) You may be smoking too strong a tobacco. Ask your tobacconist for a slower-burning, milder blend; and (3) You may be smoking too rapidly. If so, learn to smoke slowly. Puff gently and pause between puffs.
