Brass being a good conductor of heat also means that it can get rid of
it quickly and thus it could be red hot up one end and cool to the
touch down the other end.  Just don't suck up the hot air or touch
your lips to the hot end of the pipe, that might hurt just a bit ...

ps.  Anyone know where I can get Samphire (Crinthium maritinum) seeds
from.  I'd love to do the pickled Purslane and the picked Samphire
recipes from Elinor Fettiplace...
