I had the same problem as the OP, and setting wgCacheEpoch did not seem to work for me (or maybe its effect was only delayed, due to some timezone issue...).
Can you be more specific about what you tried and what failed? Unless you're using the squid mode and a reverse caching proxy, updating $wgCacheEpoch should *always* clear all parser-cached items immediately and invalidate any browser-local cached pages.
(If you are using the squid mode and a caching reverse proxy, then you must issue explicit PURGE requests to the proxy or manually clear it as well.)
Note that timestamps are always in UTC (*NOT* local time) and should be in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format, as a 14-character string.
