   Pour some salt into the bowl and mouthpiece. Epsom salt is best but table salt is fine too.
2.

   Place the pipe in a small container. It should be as close to the size of the pipe as possible.It should also be quite sturdy (not super cheap plastic) because you will be putting some pretty harsh chemicals or very hot water in it.
3.

   Pour in your cleaning solution. Now, which solution to use is a matter of discussion.Alcohol works well but can damage the color of the pipe or leave an unhealthy residue.Alternatively you can use vinegar or Listerine or a mixture of these and really hot water.Whatever you use, pour it into the container.

   Place the pipe in the solution. Leave it immersed for at least 5 minutes.
