They look clean.
This is what I have done
- set the temperature to 230°C,
- gently pushed forward some cleaning filament until it extruded,,
- let it cool down to 30°C,
- set the temp back to 230°C
- gently pull the filament while the nozzle is heatin,
The filament came a bit dirty.

I did the same procedure again and this time the filament was clean.
