...Will washing help at all once they've already started to taste funny? One of mine is definitely losing its flavor. This is the 4th or 5th refill I think.
Yes, but I have only needed to do it few times since March. I use hydrogen peroxide and a touch of bleach to clean the funkiness out. I rinse with a little water to get residual fluid out, do a few wrist flicks to remove some of the water, then in a small cup or ramekin, with just the H2O2, place the carto in to soak, then I add a little bleach, not much (kills more germs). It will fizz some. Swirl it around some, let it sit for a bit, at least an hour. I then rinse throughly with water, do the Taryn spin (no condoms) to get the majority of water out, then let it sit over night threads up on a paper towel. Refill with the next or same flavor and enjoy. I hope it's not burned. I refill before it runs dry to prevent burning. I also rotate through several (7-12) units during a day, so I am not straining any gear too much. I also dedicate atties or cartos to a flavor. Good luck, hope this helps.
Good to see you still have a sense of humor after that 5.9 EQ that was so close to you. Dang, sanford, I almost wet my pants it was so scary, and you're closer than I am to where it hit. Dang, I'm still shaking.
Yeah, I almost ran out of the house. It came in 2 waves and was the hardest peak shake I have felt in a while. As soon as I knew it wasn't the 'BIG ONE' I checked in with the USGS to see where it was and how strong. There's been more than the usual shakin' this year and not just here. I live in a 2 story, so it seems just a bit more scary.
