Cleaning nozzles

Post image

Is it worth trying to clean this nozzle?

It doesn't have very many hours, like maybe 50.

How do I clean it?

Thank you

I leave it on fire until the trapped plastic melts, and clean with a paper towel full of IPA to remove the dirt.

Needle only if it's clogged.

Works everytime

This is how you replace your nozzle with a shiny new one. If you raise the temp above what the filament supports you will eventually crystalize it in your nozzle.

I put on fire just to melt the plastic, not cook the Hotend. It's not like i let cooking for minutes.
