Other than that I'm getting a good handle on the pipe and can see myself smoking one more than my cigars.
One more thing - what do you all do with your tamper after using it? I'm either getting ash all over my thumb from wiping it off or I'm wiping it off on the edge of the sole of my boot before sticking it back in my pocket

The Lane 1Q smokes hot because it is cased and smothered in a humectant, polypropylene glycol, and will not dry out quickly, if at all. Many like it, I am not a fan, too moist and too much flavoring.
Of course, I don't want to suggest in any way that you smoke or do not smoke something simply because I do or do not like it.
As for cleaning your tamper - if you find other ways than the one you mentioned, let me know.
Peace of The Lord be with you.
