Cleaning Inline Percolator

Hi guys! Im new but I had a question that I've been trying to have answered for some time now and no one seems to know what to do. I have some "debris" stuck at the the end. My binger essentially looks like this but its holes instead of slits. The "debris" that im talking about is stuck all the way to the side opposite of the bowl and downstem. Ive tried shaking the living s&*% out of it with rubbing alcohol and salt, I've let it sit over night with rubbing alcohol and salt and I've even blasted air from an air compressor into the downstem with rubbing alcohol and salt in it (probably not the best idea). If anyone has any idea how I should go about getting the debris out please let me know
THANKS!

^essentially same as mine but with holes instead of slits

I have the exact same problem with 2 of mine...........alcohol and rock salt, after a boiling water soak seems to work best. That's a nice piece by the way.....

DO NOT put your glass anywhere near boiling water. Use salt and heated rubbing alcohol. Heat the RA in the microwave for 15 sec at a time but be careful. RA has a low flash point, i.e. it will explode in your microwave if you heat it too long. This method will get ANYTHING clean. NEVER use boiling water.

I wouldn't be putting 90% Alcohol in my microwave, that's up there with blasting BHO in a tiny room or a room with no ventilation.

Yeah you might get away with it once or twice, hell even maybe 100 times, but why risk something so dangerous?

Boiling water sounds dangerous. I spray my glass with Easy Off Oven Cleaner then let it sit for a few minutes and rise off. It's more expensive then Iso and Salt but works a lot better. Although the fumes (very strong lemon scent) are nasty and you should wear gloves because it burns like bleach. It rinses away easy with water but just in case I still do a rinse with Dawn dish soap.
