several months ago i purchased a meerschaum pipe from a california company - recieved the pipe and started smoking about 2 bowls a day of black cavendish in it. i've noticed that the pipe is of a softer material getting a yellow hue to it quicker than some of my 1960's meerschaums, which tells me that i think this is more of a pressed meerschaum pipe than a TRUE carved meerschaum. there are several eyes, swirls and dimples in this pipe where ash and carbon have acquired. can anyone tell me what would be the best way for cleaning this softer style meerschaum, and as ALWAYS thank you for your time and consideration on this matter.
