How to clear DNS cache in google chrome

On Linux Debian 10 (Buster), I am using the http(s) client google-chrome-stable.

I was configuring (nginx) and testing (chrome) a reverse proxy and it got cached using a wrong domain.

I fixed the configuration but it still resolve to the wrong domain.

I am not working with FireFox, so FireFox can resolve correctly (so does curl).

After about 10 minutes, without restarting chrome. I did F5 (refresh) and it was loading the proper page. I haven't found a manual way to immediatly clear chrome cache.

I am doing devops and I haven't solved this issue for years.

Would love to know how to do one day :O

What happens if you open developer console F12 and then hold down on the refresh button and then select empty cache and hard reload?

Take a look at this gif for an example.
