I read somewhere to properly clean, you pull the stem, run the cleaner through to the bowl, scrub a bit, then use the opposite end to clean the stem from reverse, like scrubbing out a rifle barrel, (see, it CAN be gun related!), and then bend the cleaner into a U shape, and scrub out the bowl. Then I hear about "cake", and I wonder if I am removing something I should keep in the bowl. I light the pipe, and it will take several minutes to keep it lit, and a goodly supply of smoke. I do love it though - he may be tired of hearing it, but I'll say it again, THANKS SWILSON80!!!!
