What's the recommended way to completely dispose of an Entity Manager once you're finished with it?

An Entity Manager will be taken care of by the Garbage Collection once there are not references to it.

Yet, if you want to be extra cautious, you could do;
 
_entityManager.Clear();
_entityManager = null;
 
Be sure not to have any references to _entityManager (UI, etc).
