    Yes, you can sand it down with some wet/dry or as been said you can use a pipe reamer but be careful. You just want to remove the cake, not sand right down to the meer. Once you have it cleaned up they are really easy to maintain, just run a folded pipe cleaner around the bowl after it's cooled and through the stem.

    Geek...I'm gonna be the alarmist here and recommend you go to your local and have your tobacconist clean that Meer. Only because Meerschaum is such delicate stuff and if you have never cleaned one yourself before...one mistake will be your last for sure my friend. Have an expert deal with it and QNA the heck out of 'em wilst there. Good luck !

    Hey Nightblade. To be honest I aint sure where aroun here I could find someone with the skillset. However as was alluded to it's already pretty clean. I ran some wet/dry paper round the inside and dumped out some carbon. Took it back as far as I dare. It wasn't real thick to start.

    Cleaned through the stem with some whisky and pipe cleaners. Now the bowl is in the box and the stem is lying out to dry. Now I'll just need to keep on top of it after use.

    Submitted my first paper for publishing with the Western Academy of Management. I'll keep you guys posted if they accept or reject it. Now, I'm sitting back with my Peterson Churchwarden and enjoying some Frog Morton on the Town.
    God be in my head and in my understanding. God be in my eyes and in my looking. God be in my mouth and in my speaking. God be in my heart and in my thinking. God be at my end and my departing. -Amen
