Waterproof switches and keyboards of Noppoo do have their market apart from the China military.
Use a dog to clean perhaps. ;)

Don't do that. It is a perfect candidate for a bolt-mod now and it will be good as new. Just don't let the residue set up on the traces.

Only if it's the good stuff that burns as it goes down and makes you feel like you're on speed.  None of that fru-fru stuff with the Strawberries or other nonsense added

I know someone else put their model M in the dishwasher without realising it could damage it. Or was it just the case. In any case it got melted. Barrelframe isn't nearly as sturdy, so if it is made from PVC I would assume it would end up spectacularly bad after the treatment. Even if it's some other material, I wouldn't want to put it through the process.

Capillary action between the membranes is all but inevitable if liquid gets the chance.

This needs to be recorded on video for future reference as well.

Must've been a hell of a lot of yogurt to get it into the barrels.

What about taking it apart and flushing it well with alcohol?

What I did. There were no caps on the board when it happened.

Wait, is this Greek yogurt?  You didn't specify.  If Greek yogurt then it can only be cleansed with fire.

If regular yogurt then sprinkle it with granola, dice some peaches, and find a spoon.  You'll have to dig it out manually.

Wouldn't yogurt simply solidify after a while and become non-conductive?
