Product: Filters & Adaptors Savinelli 9mm Balsa Filters (15 Count)
Have been using the 6mm's for a long time and decided to try the balsa in my Vauen and instantly noticed the difference in both charcoal and paper as they become restrictive with use, actually from the time you start they are less draw friendly. The ... Read More
balsa does as Mart V. says decreased moisture problems almost entirely, and I agree they won't catch the tars and particulates, but isn't that where some of the flavor is? just asking my thoughts I'll take a little bite from the crud for the full flavor. Read Less

st future medical bills. Not nearly as effective against tars and harmful particles than activated charcoal filters such as Stanwells, which are my favorites by far (but sadly not available from Smokingpipes). But the Balsa system is definitely a good start. The 9mm work identical to smaller 6mm siblings, the choice depending on the pipe you are using. Read Less

4 times, though I disagree. I would suggest using it no more than 3 times and do not change tobacco between uses. I like the balsa wood insert for use with virginias, mostly. Read Less

If you need to use a filter, look no further. this does not obstruct air flow, nor affect blend's taste. Good for up to 5 use, maximum. Just remember to dry it out on a paper towel after each use.
Good for Sav. and other brands of Pipes
