New ultrasonic vinyl cleaner in the works: Humminguru

So-- I took like a year hiatus from spinning records after my tonearm got knocked into at a pregame for a concert. Everything is back up and running after a move-- however, while packing for the move, I realized I had left water in the Guru container for that entire timeframe. Maybe been in there as long year and a half because the concert was in the summer of 23'. Obviously not ideal considering it tells you to remove the water every time... and crazy it hadn't all evaporated.

I presume the danger is mold in the filter? That's easy enough to swap out. Do you all think I need to take any other precautions before using it again?

Check what they say about cleaning it but I would use dish soap and water on the water basin. And then use about 100 to 200 ml of 10% vinegar in the basin with water and run that through several times then replace the filter. That's what you do with the Degritter.

Thank you sir. You're always reliable for good info. I sifted through their FAQs and didn't see anything about cleaning the Guru itself.

Any time, also just to be clear after you run the vinegar and water solution through, rinse with several run throughs of distilled water. And clean the tank with soap and water after as well. Just to get rid of the vinegar.
