dirty pipes

Do not use alcohol - it can severly fuck up a wooden pipe unless you are very careful about very even absorption and then a very even and complete dry.

As a tobacco pipe collector I have to break something to you - you really shouldn't smoke bud out of a pipe like that. You will never be able to properly break it in, nor properly clean it, and cannabis burns a bit hotter than tobacco which means you'll burn through your pipe and end up smoking wood if not very careful. Here is the typical approach to breaking in a pipe and cleaning a pipe when it comes to tobacco -

Breaking your pipe in -
Breaking in your new pipe is a crucial step in making a sweet tasting, long lasting pipe. It takes time, patience and skill. But it is an investment whose rewards will be reaped many fold.
The goal when breaking in a pipe is to develop a uniform cake around the wall of the entire smoking chamber or smoke hole. The cake is actually a carbon deposit left by the smoked tobacco rather than charred wood. The cake serves to insulate the briar and reduces the possibility of burning out your new pipe.
The cake also sweetens the pipe, since the carbon is formed from the sugars in the tobacco. The sweet cake absorbs the flavour of the briar and the result of smoking a pipe with a well formed cake is a mellow, sweet smoke. However, you can have too much cake which is discussed later.
The second and most important step is to fill the pipe only one-quarter full. Light the partial pipeful evenly. Tamp down the burning tobacco and again light the tobacco evenly.
Smoke the pipe slowly and completely. Taking long, slow draws will help to form a good, even cake. It is important to smoke the pipe to the bottom to establish the cake all the way to the bottom. The cake at the bottom of the bowl is the most difficult to develop and this is why such care must be taken in the breaking in process.
After smoking a few pipefuls at one-quarter, move up to smoking at one-half full, then several at three-quarters. Allow the pipe to cool after each smoker and after a few pipefuls remove the residue from the bottom of the bowl. This must be done very carefully so as not to disturb the cake which you have obtained with your efforts. The purpose of gradually increasing the tobacco level is twofold – first, it will help form an even cake from the bottom to the top of the bowl and second, it ensures that the new pipe will not become overheated and burn out before it has a thick enough cake.


Scraping out the bowl
Do not allow too much carbon to form inside the bowl as this may cause the wood to split due to outward expansion of the “cake” when the bowl is cooling after use. The ideal carbon thickness is 1.5mm.

Whilst a pipe should be emptied immediately after smoking this should not be done by hitting or knocking the top of the bowl against a hard surface. The latter may result in a cracked or split pipe.
In order to gain the maximum life and pleasure from your pipes it is essential that you take proper care of them. They will last longer and smoke sweeter if you let them dry thoroughly between smokes. Clean them frequently and scrape them clear of excess cake when it develops.

Ideally, and particularly for heavy smokers, it is recommended that you keep at least three or four pipes alternately in use. This will ensure maximum smoking pleasure and longer life for your pipe.
It takes a little time to break in a pipe correctly and keep it cleaned properly, but the increased smoking pleasure will make it worthwhile.

It's best to scrape with a wooden tool or to use course pipe cleaners.

Cleaning the Pipe
Ideally, after each smoke a pipe cleaner is run though the mouthpiece, down the length of the air channel and through to the base of the bowl.
The pipe should then be left to dry, since the briar or meerschaum absorbs some of the moisture produced during smoking. After a few smokes, every pipe should be rested a day or two to allow the absorbed moisture which has accumulated in the pipe to evaporate. This is why you need more than one pipe to smoke in rotation and why most pipe smokers have up to a dozen or more.

If you like smoking out of a nonglass pipe I would recommend corn cob pipes. They are super cheap and can found at most stores in the tobacco isle as well as costume stores. At ~$1.50 you can just toss them when they get dirty or scrape the hell out of them without worry.
