Yes, but not overly long, maybe an hour soak at best, still a bit hard on equipment.
Citric Acid is best and easier on same

i plan on brushing it with a toothbrush while it’s in the vinegar so hopefully i can finish cleaning within 15min. i’ll get citric acid after i used the vinegar.

Been hearing reports of vinegar penetrating the plastic and causing issues if something metal or a magnet is housed within.

I only vinegar bath basic plastic parts such as nozzles and the like. Otherwise it’s plan tap water and good ole fashion scrubbing to clean
