When you break-in a pipe, you are building up a carbon layer of deposit on the walls and bottom of the pipe chamber. This build-up will help the pipe smoke cooler and dryer. Eventually the carbon layer or "Cake" will build to the point it will need to be trimmed. By that time you will hopefully have enough experience with a pipe that you'll know what to do. Good luck.
