    I've got them in a pill bottle filed with rubbing alcohol ATM, and they have been in there for about 3 hours so far. how long should I leave them?
     
    I was unable to haul anything and at first the bowl wouldn't even drip when i filled it with water whilst cleaning it.
     
    I'm trying to clean it for when I get my 1/2 oz this week.

    you should just fill it 40% with alcohol and then put some salt in it and shake shake for some time depending on how bad it is

    You should just put it in a normal sized glass and fill it just over the top of the bowl with alcohol. Put it in the microwave for 5 minutes. No mess, no salt, no shaking like a mad man nothing. Put it in, it heats up boils like crazy, take it out(careful it's hot) run hot water through it after it cools enough to hold. It will be completely spotless.

    Mineral water and a bottle brush. I would not trust putting fire to a device that was soaked in flammable rubbing alcohol.

    I use 91% iso and a little sea salt. Works like a charm

    It honestly doesn't matter... How ever long out takes to clean. Use sea salt. It helps when it's inn a bag filled with alcohol. Cleans better

    I always fill her up with 91% and shake for a few seconds and run with hot water afterward. I clean it every other day though so if it's hella dirty you'll want to leave it sitting for a few hours...rinse...repeat.

    This is the water that came out of it after I cleaned it (just drained it now) I am glad I cleaned it after looking at this nasty ass shit.
     
    At any rate, I named it coffee because it looks like coffee and the profile is associated with my face book account so just incase my parents seen it or something. #paranoid.

    Add some salt man, and shake.
    I got super baked once and went to clean my piece and stuck it in the bag with alcohol...came back a couple hours later and it wasn't clean and was like uhh...OH FUCK, I forgot to add salt.
    That NaCl helps a shit ton.

    I use 91% soak for about a day or more (have plenty of other pieces to use). Than a nice hot hot water rinse followed by a few hour soak in hot soap water to give the glass it's shine back. They come out looking like the day they were made. I've done the salt thing and it doesn't get it any cleaner so I stopped buying salt.

    Try and get something like this if you can, it's a pretty good investment in terms of ease of cleaning.

    Shouldn't be more than $5-$10 online, I have a set of three that I think I paid $10 for and they clean all my pipes/downstems/bowls very easily
