Ok not really. But I just been dreading punching my own cartos. And even though it took me like 30 mins.. I got it!

But man, I don't wanna do that again!

Shopping list...
1. Saddle valve.

Congrats man. There are some people out there that are simply unwilling to punch their own cartos. Oh yeah, have you tried the Newport Beach yet?

I don't like Newport Beach. It taste likely mentholly maple syrup. Has my analog friends try it and they said the same.. Maybe it'll grow on me. Or maybe it needs some steeping. I'll give it a week. Trying my sample sizes of pineapple and green apple from there right now.

Sorry that you don't like it. Taste is very subjective but, I had my friends try it. There was the opposite reaction. Anyways, I did let the juice steep for a good while. Whenever I try out a new juice. I always give it a couple weeks to a month. Plus, I have way to much to begin with. *sigh* The things a juice junky has to go through LOL

This is my process:

1) Line up carto to the tank and see where hole should go.
2) Mark with sharpie.
3) Put condoms on either end of the cart so the sharpie is visible.
4) Lay carto on my slightly opened vise.
5) Put drywall screw tip on sharpie.
6) Whack with a hammer.

Saddle valves works great for me. Before that I was using a spring loaded punch and a finishing nail.
