last night. Most of a glass over the top.

iMack blue booth keyboard. Left it to dry overnight, now workingish but with a crunchy sound as the keys are pressed.

Can't find a way of stripping it down. Don't know if there is a membrane under the keys.

Only saving grace is that it was an Alcohol free lager so no great loss. Apart from piss taking anybody offer any advice?

With batteries out:
Get another glass of the same beer.
Rinse keyboard thoroughly with it. Afterwards rinse thoroughly under first a cold then a hot tap.
Shake all possible moisture out of it, and leave it in front of a working de-humidifier for a few days before re-installing the battery.
It is vital to get all the beer out of it, and not just dried off. Once dried, the best solvent is more beer.
To see why, look up Louis Rossman on you tube, and the electrolytic effects of beer/soft drinks.
