I've already looked on-line and found a site that refurbishes them. They
have a detailed photo-guide showing just how they go about it. It shows
a complete disassembly & cleaning. It's detailed enough I will probably
have a go at cleaning it myself.
A good refurbished IBM Type M looks to be going for around $120 on the
inter-webs and NOS "still in the box" can range as high as $250.
I bought a dozen of them back in 2000 for $2 apiece. Now I wish I'd
bought two dozen.

I was going to suggest that you hang the keyboard under a shower head
for several minutes to rinse out all the coffee, then rinse it in
distilled water, shake as much water out as possible, and let it air dry
for several days before trying it. That might work.

You can wash a genuine IBM Type M in a dishwasher. Just make sure you don't
use a heated drying cycle.
Let it air-dry for several days before trying to use it again.
