Honestly, I use a dishwasher. Set it to the lowest heat setting, throw
about 1/4 the usual amount of soap, and throw your keyboards on the top
rack. Works like a charm. Just make sure you let them dry completely.
Around here I leave mine for a couple of weeks, but when I was in
Alberta it only took a couple of days (hot and dry).
