How do you clean this machine?

It depends on exactly what you mean, wiping it down is fine. If you want to clean/purge the grinding area the best way is to put through some dry rice and it will clean the grinding mechanism.

Hello... First, I'm very pleased with mine. It works very well. I clean the detachable parts with soap and water and the inside of the nozzle that is on the side of the machine with a toothpick. That loosens any caked on flour. I then turn the machine sideways to knock out any flour bits. Very easy. The outside of the mill I simply wiped down with a damp cloth. I hope this helps.

Very little needs to be cleaned on the electric version. You can wash out your flour canister and let it dry well. Additionally, you can wipe down the main unit with a damp cloth. The inner grinding chamber can't be cleaned/disassembled, but if you did need to get off flavors out, etc., we recommend grinding rice through the mill as it will help absorb / clean any impurities. In general, make sure you don't grind any wet/oily items in this mill. If you have specific things you need to grind, please give us a call and we can go over all of the things it can and cannot grind. -- 9G Health Foods -- 205.202.9235 Very little needs to be cleaned on the electric version.

on the machine itself I use a small paint brush and then blow off the dust and particles. On the rest of it I use soap and water and let it air dry.

I haven't cleaned one yet but when I do I will put a small amount of dishsoap and enough water and then shake it. The other option would be to clean it like you would a coffee pot with ice, lemon juice or vinegar.

Clean it per the instructions using an 80% water 20% muriatic acid solution. Soak for 10 minutes. Rinse with fresh water. Mine did the same. I cleaned it and it works like new again.

Very well! And i just run hot water through it and polish with a soft cloth. I just googled cleaning options. There are other ways, but that was the easiest way i found.

You don't! The only cleaning is surface cleaning on the outside of the unit. The manual recommends wiping with a dry cloth. It's maintenance free - plug it in and only dry wipe the shell when needed.

It may be your machine I have the same one (but I'm fixing to get a new one). It may need to be cleaned with vinegar like the instructions say. I had the same problem but once i did that it was fixed.

I'd use compressed air to clean it rather than washing it, just need to remove any larger particles of dirt and grit that it may have picked up.

Honestly I have never had to clean it. Im thinking a heavy duty degreaser or some type of acid base cleaner might do the trick. Maybe even bleach and let it soak. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Almost four years running nonstop and its still going strong.

I rinse it with water. Then spray the water to flush out and clean the nozzle. Next, I repeat the process using alcohol.

Cleaning is the one downside but I find the best way is to put just a tiny drop of dishwashing liquid along with about 2 cups of water and then put the lid on and turn on the machine for about 30 seconds. It cleans up very well and then all you have to do is rinse it out very well. Hope this is helpful.

rinse it out and fill it with a mixture of 1/3 Cup white distilled vinegar and 2/3 Cup water and turn on the machine, let it heat up and run it till there are about 5-6 puffs of fog, then rinse it out and fill with just water and turn it on and let it steam about 7-8 times, let it cool, dump the water and store the machine. That's what I do and it works. I clean it before I store it every time

I usually vacuum it first and then take a soapy wah cloth and clean the surface. Very easy and very clean!
