8. While the machine is still wet, rinse the blade under running water. The stainless steel underside of the Almond Cow top is safe from water, so use your hand or a rag to remove any remaining pulp. Be careful not to get any water in the vents!

11. Be sure to rinse the filter basket thoroughly. Over time, some of the pores in the canister may close up with the almond paste. This happens faster if the Almond Cow is allowed to dry with nut pulp on it. Don't worry! This just takes a bit longer to clean up. If this happens, place the filter basket in a vinegar solution of 2 tbsp vinegar and 2 cups of water until the pores are fully submerged. Allow to soak overnight, then use a sponge and water rinse to wipe up the next day.
