There are other methods for cleaning the stems other than the bleach method I outlined earlier.
Some guys will use Oxyclean over bleach as it will not eat into sensitive parts. I have not tried this, but some guys swear by it.
Other ways to clean stems involve sanding away the oxidation by hand. Other methods use Mr. Clean Magic Erasers or Bar Keeper's Friend, Soft Scrub, or other such cleaning products.
Some methods will take more time than others. A lot of it depends on how much oxidation is on the stem. If the stem is really dirty, you may find yourself spending several hours of cleaning by hand to remove the grime and restore a shine.
Try some various methods and settle on the one that suits you best.
