Hi, I bought food alcohol to clean the cu.
Can I avoid to dismantle it or in this case the wax will not go out of the cu?
If I dismantle I can put it just in a small glass to not consume too much alcohol?
The container must be made by glass or also plastic is ok?
How long it Will take to clean the cu?
Thanks!
If you want to conserve alcohol you could try dipping a toothbrush or similar and scrubbing the disassembled CU
If you have an ultrasonic cleaner, you could seal the assembled CU in solution and run some cycles. Otherwise take it apart to clean it.
Some plastic won't like alcohol, mostly acrylics. Most kitchenware should handle it.
You could put a small amount of alcohol in a zip-lock sandwich bag, place the disassembled CU in and shake. Heat will speed up the cleaning action, place the sealed bag and parts under a hot tap.
I'd recommend a different cooling option like glass beads, and cheaper denatured alcohol solution for cleaning. Makes things quick and easy, which makes the cleaning steps straight forward and more likely to happen at a higher frequency.
