Satisfied Customer
During the Covid season I could not get the balsam filters at a good price, so I began using the Savinelli tube filters, which are also great…. give them a try. Now that I can get the original balsam filters again, I’m enjoying the tastes of my go to tobacco, Cult Blood Red Moon with no filter restrictions while knowing it’s there and working. NO, I’m not a P&C sales rep, but I like how they keep me supplied no matter the order size.

I prefer paper.
These aren't bad, but I switched back to Medico paper filters for my Savinelli Mega Rustic 320 pipe. Even when dry, the balsa filters are a very tight squeeze in the socket, so you'll get some balsa shavings peeling off when you work it in. I found I had to be very gentle to avoid breaking the balsa; once or twice I had to use pliers to get a broken filter out. I also had to be careful to avoid the filter jamming against either end of the stem, which would block airflow. On the plus side, they are the correct length for my pipe, where Medico filters are too long. I have to cut the Medico filters in half.

Interesting use of balsa
A little tricky getting them out of the stem without breaking when they've been used. Maybe replacing them more frequently would work. Anyway, an interesting idea because they seem to work okay.

Good but not perfect
Works great, however, for non aromatic tobaccos it can take from the flavor, especially if you jut put it in. Also for some reason they tend to run long so you might have to cut some of it out, I guess it depends on the pipe.

Good quality filtering system. Tends to get very wet and gummy quickly which it is supposed to do so you through a good many of them. A 30 pack would be more cost-effective. Right now I am still more partial to the Aldo Velani filters they tend to last longer and are a better buy.

Filters...
OK, so I'm a light weight, I only smoke filtered pipes, finally decided to try the balsa filters and guess what...they were pretty amazing. They do a great job of sucking up the moisture and last longer than paper filters before needing to be replaced. I'd recommend anyone who smokes filtered pipes to give them a try.

Great, not your standard filter.
I got some with my Siena 626 and even though I'm not much of a filter guy, these don't really act like a filter. More of a moisture wick. I'm just hoping they're back in stock soon

Simple but Great Filter
I have been using this Savinelli 6 MM Filter for over 25 years now. I think they are great. I can't imagine using anything else. I do have one E.A.Cary Pipe with that air cooling system and hate it just a waist of time. The Balsa Filter takes out some of the nicotine and moisture as I smoke which I really like compared to my regular straight pipes that I have to clean after smoking each time. I wish they lasted longer than average of 3 times of use cause I average smoking 4 to 5 pipes a day so that is a lot of filters being used in a month. I highly recommend the filtered pipes for smoking this system Savinelli Pipes are the best and their filtering system is great. I have 11 of their pipes and plan to add more to my collection as years go by with the Balsa Filter system in them.

A better solution...
Very uncomplicated device that’s easy to install and remove after use. Doesn’t adversely affect the pipes draw. Does a good job of filtering too. Absorbs or stops moisture and/or small bits of errant tobacco. Elegant in it’s simplicity and utility. Must have for your 9mm filter pipe

Okay
Does the job. Get wet real fast. A couple of small bowls at most and they're soaked. Also a slide taste of balsa is evident in the smoke. Can't beat a standard 9mm European filter.

Balsa filters or nothing
Purchased the 6mm balsas for my MM Country Gentleman because I'm not a fan of the paper or charcoal filters. They can handle moist flake and even the revered Gawith blends like a champ. If these little guys do this well, I am sure the 9mm are outstanding! I can usually get around 5-10 smokes out of a filter before it needs to meet it's maker. Can't beat the price either.

savinelli hercules pipe
My recent purchase of the above pipe was one of the best pipe decisions I have made. I had always wanted a much larger pipe than standard sized pipes. With proper packing and slow drawing the smoke will last the better part of an hour without relighting. I light it up late afternoon on my deck and enjoy the pipe while reading outside. It just makes for a very pleasant hour of quiet reading. I'd heartily would recommend this pipe for anyone who would like a longer relaxing smoke.

These filters work great, they insure a cooler dryer smoke, and don't get soggy like paper filters. I've used them not only in my Savinelli but also my Dr Grabow.

Savinelli Pipe Filters
I was disappointed this time as the 6mm filters I received recently are bigger than 6mm filters I ordered several months ago. I can use them, but have to shave them down to be effective.

Wonderful filters that don't take away from the smoke at all...they don't interfere with the flavor or anything. Highly recommended!
5 out of 5
Smooth and dry
I love the balsa wood filters that Savinelli has long been famous for in the 6mm size, and these 9mm filters offer the same benefits. The smoke still flows smooth and you lose none of the flavor (something I can't always say when using a 9mm charcoal filter), but you get a great absorber for any moisture as well as a nice cooling and regulating factor that helps with bite. Very satisfying, if you smoke a filter pipe.
5 out of 5
Simple but proven and effective.
Perfect filter for wicking moisture away during your smoke. If you own a Savinelli or not, this will work well for you in your 6mm filter pipel
4 out of 5
A novel idea for filtration
The filters do sop up a lot of moisture and I suppose some of the tars in pipe tobacco. They can be reused, especially if smoking non aromatics.
5 out of 5
Savinelli Balsa Filters
I find Savinelli balsa filters to be very effective. They keep small tobacco debris out and take the bite out of bolder tobacco. The balsa filters also keep a pipe cleaner and keep the buildup at a minimum. They are the best filters I have used.
5 out of 5
Best Cost effective filter and cheap.
The best value for the buck. It is not like a complete filter like a charcoal one since it lets smoke go around. It's a triangle shape that fits in your round stem. The manufacturer says you can soak it in water, let it dry and reuse. However, it is oil entrapped in it and the ends get tarred up. I usually cut the ends of and reuse. Sometimes I let it soak and dry for a couple of days. When it gets too short (exceeds the depth of the stem) I throw it away.
5 out of 5
Favorite Filter Method
The best cost effective filter. I prefer the 9 mm rather than the 6mm but both IMO are the best filters. They still let the taste come through unlike the charcoal kind. They give a complete cool and dry smoke. It is a balsa filter round and has groves to let the smoke past on the outside. The manufacture says you can soak it in water, let it dry and reuse. Gets tarred up on the ends which I just cut off with a razor and reuse till it gets too short.

Effective Filtering
If one has ever cleaned out the 'tenon' end of a pipe mouthpiece, one would be amazed at all the glop that builds up over time, even after regular pipe cleaner runs through the draft hole/passage. All the more reason to use an effective filter that helps block the gunk but allows a smooth draw. These balsa filters perform that job admirably, absorbing moisture and blocking particles of tobacco better than other filters that I have used.

I've used the Savinelli System for 19 years and have experimented with the other filters. I would say that the smoke I get from the balsa filter if the greatest. Cheers,

I have smoked Savinelli Pipes for over thirty years and have tried numerous different pipe filters. The balsa filters by Savinelli are without a doubt the best by far.

Paper Towels and Toothpicks?
Well made and fits good on all the pipes I had. It is my belief you can use them at least twice. But I use them a lot more. 10 times more. I let them dry out on a lamp though. Have not tried soaking them in water to dry out and retry and see how far I can take them. But someone said you can use a paper towel and I tried it and darn worked too. I might try using a cut toothpick wrapped in a paper towel when these get too expensive to buy.

I was using the paper filters in my Savinelli 404. Decided to try these balsa filters that came with the pipe. They catch more of the moisture and junk for an enhanced smoke than the paper filters ever did.

Good filters
This is an excellent invention. Having bought these filters from P&C twice, I note that there are two designs, one with a triangular cross-section and one with a generally hexagonal cross-section with slots cut in two sides of the hexagon. Both work about equally well for soaking up moisture, eliminating gurgle, noticeably lowering delivered nicotine and keeping ash out of the mouth.

Does as intended.
I love these filters. They don't restrict the airflow as much as the average paper filters, and perform just as well if not better. Only difference between smoking my 320 with and/or without is that with there is less 'pipe juice'. If you have a filtered Savinelli, I'd totally recommend you get some!

Balsa - not just for gliders anymore
I bought these to try out in my MM cobs. They help to make a real cool smoke & absorb like a sponge to keep the moisture at bay. They can be a bit squishy when you remove them unless you let the pipe rest longer. My loose stems on my cobs did seem to tighten up a bit after using the balsa filter, that's a plus.

Taste the smoke without the gurgle.
Lets the smoke through will adsorbing the moisture. Genius.
Customer Testimonials
These work quite well. I like to use them when I have them, but for the most part I just roll up a little square of paper towel and stick it where the filter goes and it works just as well and is vertually free. These filters are nice though to have.
DS of Palisade, MN
Best pipe filter out there. It does not hinder the taste at all and does a great job of absorbing moisture and tar. I recommend these filters for and Savinelli or any pipe that holds a 6mm filter.
JA of Baton Rouge, LA
They do what they are designed to do, wick away excess moisture and provide a cooler smoke. A must have for and Savinelli pipe owner.
MS of Frankfort, KY
Whenever I get a pipe that has a 6mm paper filter in it, I throw it away and replace it with one of these balsa wood filters. They do a much better job than any paper product.
DM of Van Nuys, CA
Works as advertised. Have to change filters after two uses as it soaks up alot of moisture.
TG of APO, AP
The filters are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JP of NEPTUNE, NJ
I recently begun using the Savinelli Balsa filters in my Missouri Meerschaum pipes. They fit great, they provide a clearer more fuller draw, and they soak up the yuck that can creep up the bit. The Balsa filters are the way to go.
JH of Dutton, VA
I switched to pipe smoking from hand rolled cigarettes. No filters for me, thank you. Well, I recently purchased an interesting little pipe which takes 9mm filters. Since I am a terribly impatient and hasty smoker, I figured it was time to try a filter. (I go through as many as half a dozen pipe cleaners in my messiest bowls.) I now wish I had bought a few more filtered pipes on the way to my current stable of 15 pipes. I don't blame my pipes (much) nor my tobaccos (many) for how wet I smoke. But these filters absorb everything that runs at them from any direction. They cover a multitude of sins. The draw with these, assuming the pipe is drilled properly, is improved, if anything. Don't worry about that. I am sure some particulate matter is stopped too;it is quite visible when the filter is removed. Taste does not suffer at all, however. This was my biggest concern. I like the full tobacco experience. All my favorites taste very good with these filters. I do not get more than two bowls from each filter. I let them dry for a day or two between uses. I am sure other smokers get more from them. As I confessed, I am a wet smoker. If all my pipes used these, perhaps I could not justify the extra expense of using one up after two smokes. But that is my fault, not the design or material. I quite like these and would recommend them.
CC of Gold Beach, OR
At first I wasn't sure how these were going to work. Now I really like them. I get about 3-4 uses out of them, letting each filter air dry a couple of days before using it again. The longer I smoke pipes, the more I am gravitating toward filtered pipes because there's virtually no tongue bite or burning or gurgling. I rarely smoke an unfiltered pipe anymore.
BM of Kaukauna, WI
I purchased a Savinelli Gaius 616 and it came with a filter and some extras. I was absolutely surprised at the quality of the balsa wood system. They are excellent at removing most of the unwanteds from the smoke and they DO NOT hinder drawing from the pipe. The filters can be re-used up to 3-4 times too so they are economical. They absorb a lot of moisture to.

If you use these, then you know how much they retail for. This is a great price and you won't need to restock any time soon.
