[QUOTE="Justpipes, post: 17421, member: 38"] Most pipes will pass a pipe cleaner without removing the stem and it is better to clean the pipe this way. I let my pipes go as long as 3 months without removing the stem for thorough cleaning with grain alcohol. I do run 2-3 cleaners through them after each smoke. As Frank said you can loosen the stem by taking it apart to much and as long as you clean it thoroughly with pipe cleaners after each smoke it will stay clean and sweet for a long time. Some pipes might not pass a pipe cleaner if the drilling is off a little or if the pipe has an extreme bend. If the pipe will not pass a cleaner at first give it a little twist as you are running it in and they will usually pass on through. You can even curve the end of it before and twist as it is going in to get the cleaner to pass. [/QUOTE]
