Using a pipe without a screen.

[The Dude Of Life]

wow i cant believe so many of you use a pebble or stems even!
stems will light and then the great taste is tainted.

I Always just break a little pebble shaped nug to cover hole, then pack bowl.:thumbsup:

if its a rather small piece of stem, like as thick as a guitar string, it shouldnt add any taste at all. on the contrary, if its from some dank nugs, the stems are covered in trichomes and will get you moked.
