No to the pipe cleaner in the stem. This makes absolutely zero sense to me. Think about it...if you had a 4 inch diameter pipe that was wet, would it dry faster stuffing it with a towel, or air drying?
The towel would hold the dampness in with no circulation at all. I would think this would be the worst thing you could do. What I do with the ash is after tamping it for a while, tip it over and let the loose ash fall out. That usually clears it out enough without allowing the cherry to get too hot.
