What's the best way to clean the AHC tank?

Denatured alcohol? Solvent? Or just AHC fluid and a brush? I'm no chemist, so need some help here.
I bled the system and didn't really take a careful look at the tank and there's sediment at the bottom. Planning on just draining, removing tank, and cleaning. Install and drop fresh fluid in it to level.

Any advice would be welcome!
 
If you go as far as removing it, I'd assume any plastic safe solvent would work.
If its just to clean the gunk off the bottom, warm water and dish soap will probably be enough.

Just remember to dry it thoroughly no matter what you use before putting it back on.
 
Thanks. I'm probably overthinking it but wanting to be cautious due to everything that is downstream from the reservoir tank.

Edit: Confirmed totally overthinking this. Tank drained and removed. Washed with simple water and dawn, bristle brush and long lab qtips. Fully dried and back on the truck.
