Re: Cracking Cobs..

I'm not a cob smoker, but I wonder if you store the pipe with a cotton ball moistened with, hell, maybe just regular old water, if it would impart enough moisture into the cob to keep the cracks from starting.

Being that the cob was once saturated with moisture (on the stalk), in this dry state with heat applied I can see why it would want to crack. Maybe a spritz of water on the outside from time to time wouldn't be a bad idea.......
