Tuxedo pulse15 is great.

Only issue I have so far is that I have a crumb stuck under the shift key and haven't figured out how to get it out without damaging the key. It's a very flat keyboard which may not be for everyone.

If the compressed air suggestion doesn't work, you could also try 90%+ isopropyl alcohol which might work to dissolve any bits and is electronics/keyboard safe. Otherwise, drop a line to Tuxedo support, I've seen XMG/Tuxedo guys be very active on their forums/subreddits, so I think you have a good chance of getting a useful response from them.

Have you tried compressed air? I had a similar problem with an old 12" MacBook with the old super shallow keyboard and compressed air helped me blow crumbs out.
