Any carto with that fluffy filler in it will get a little brownish with use, regardless of how clear the juice is. However the darker juices certainly make the filler darker than the lighter ones. My rule of thumb (though other people do it differently) is 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. In other words, if it tastes great and hits well, you're good to go. If it starts getting harder to draw on, or if the taste is affected, time for a clean. Don't know other people do em, and I've never used that kinda carto, so it might be different (i use resurrectors and boge, most often, which are different varieties of carto with filler, for 510), but I just put a little baking soda in the top hole, pour in white vinegar, and plug top hole with my thumb so it sort of does a '3rd grade volcano' effect forcing the fluid down thru the filler and out the bottom. Its sort of an 'internal powerwash' for the carto filler. I do that a few x, then flush the heck out of it with water, and then let dry at least 24 hours. They might recommend a different method with those, though, but I've found that much more effective than cleaning with alcohol or boiling.

edit: oops! I forgot a step! After rinsing incredibly thoroughly with water, I do the 'reverse taryn spin' method to drive all the water possible out of the filler, before setting it aside to finish drying on its own. You can find videos showing you how to do the 'reverse taryn spin' on youtube, or all around ecf. You don't HAVE to do this, but I find I occasionally get a musty rather mildew-ed filler when I don't do it.
