Chamber cleaning question.

[bombba 1]

I'm new to pipe smoking and find there is very little info. about pipe smoking out there. I need some advise as to the best methods for cleaning a pipe chamber using a chamber brush. Thanks Everyone.

I just use a scrunched paper towel, push it in, twist it around, remove.
Easy peasy.

I'm new to pipe smoking and find there is very little info. about pipe smoking out there.

There is a mountain of information on pipe smoking "out there".
There are decades of postings by thousands of people on every aspect of smoking a pipe.

So, how to avail oneself of all of this readily available information?

There are these applications called search engines. What search engines do is search the Internet to help the user connect to information that he is seeking.

One of these is called Google. You can use Google to search for information. To find information on a search engine like Google, and there are a number of search engines, you enter a few key words related to your search.

For example, where it says search, you can type "pipesmagazine" or "pipesmagazine.com" and "pipe cleaning", with or without the quotes, but separated by a space between words and you get this:

pipesmagazine pipe cleaning - Google Search

Suddenly you have a treasure trove of information at your disposal. You have become empowered. You are no longer bound by a single chance encounter, relying on someone who may, or may not, know what they are talking about. There's a lot of noise on the Internet. It takes a bit of scanning to find the signal in it.

Now you don't need to ask for fish. You can catch your own fish.

Please be specific on your question. How's the condition of your chamber? Thick cake?

If there's no cake or thin cake, I usually use wet tissue, dry tissue, pipe cleaners. Have been doing the job perfectly.

If thick cake. Stuff with cotton that's soaked with alcohol, leave it over night, then use brush to brush out the cake.

There are numerous way to clean the tobacco chamber of a pipe. The simplest way is to use a pipe nail to gently remove the ash from your pipe.
