The best method to clean your hookah stem to make it last for years is the following:

1. Run hot water through the stem for 45 seconds. The hot water will make all the particles stuck to the stem loose and wash them out. Turn the water off.
2. Take a long stem brush and brush the inside of the stem for 30 seconds. Let all the residue stuck to the stem come out.
3. Run hot water again through the stem for 15 seconds and place a little bit of soap inside the stem. As the water is running, use the brush to remove any excess garbage stuck to the stem.
4. Blow through the stem and rinse it once more with chilled water.
5. Blow dry inside of the stem for 30 seconds for the water to dry out.

We recommend to dry the stem with a blow dryer because that will get the water out completely and not rust your hookahs. The results of this method are priceless and we recommend its done at least once a month to keep the Hookah clean and healthy.
