Since the boiler has been working it is best to wait an hour or two for the water to cool down so that you do not risk getting burned. Let all the water drain until the boiler is empty. Then open the supply valve and let water run into the boiler and out through the drain valve for some time. Once the boiler is clean close the drain valve, open the inlet and turn on the furnace.
