Cleaning and care
Basic cleaning of the pipe after smoking is almost obligatory. Strongly flavoured tobaccos sometimes leave a thick layer of liquid in the pipe and ash residue is stuck in the tobacco chamber. The mouthpiece and the smoke channel also need to be cleaned. There are all kinds of aids and tools for this. But the pipe also needs to be looked after. Polishes can be used to maintain surfaces and solutions can be used to remove residues in the smoke channel.
