Blue Star – clogged open burner

[PassionateAmateur]

Does anyone know if I can safely remove the burner assembly (the "star" and its attached aluminum pipe) and soak it to clean out the gunk from boiled over milk that is clogging about half the little holes through which my beautiful flame is supposed to be shooting?

I do it all the time - the star is the only part you'll need to worry about - the attached aluminium pipe shouldn't have any issues. Citric acid is my soak of choice for protein-based clogs like boiled milk.

Thanks guys -- their website and user's manual are remarkably silent on this!
