I watched it Sam, brings to mind the book....Lord of the Flys. I clicked on the John Taylor gato link that showed up after.
I agree with a lot of what he says, having lived thru some of it firsthand

Nothing worse then priming a carto....filling your tank and then finding out its a bad one with a burning taste! I know it wasn't me cause I did another cart the exact same way with no problem.

Thanks Uncle Ralphie ! I sort of snuck in about late afternoon.

I hear all sorts of comments on the "longevity" of juices. Being a noob myself (5 months) I don't have any that are "to old"
juice that I bought in August taste just fine.
Edit......after more deep thought
I think what your asking is, Is there a point where the juice stops improving???
I would think, yes....once it reaches its peak....it stays as is.
A 1999 wine would taste the same in 2009 as it did in 2005.
Hope I didn't confoose ya further
Thought shakin' it more than once was considered...... ummm, never mind![]()
i gave up on cartos! they do provied very good flavor for a lot of juices, but figuring out how to punch them or prime them correctly proved too much of a challenge for me. i'm not saying it is difficult. i'm say it was too hard for me!

What kind of tanks are you using?
We're going to have to fire that bouncer & find a new one. I bet he wasn't even at his post when you stuck in.![]()
Has anyone tried the sweet cream? I just wonder how sweet it is...same question about the Bavarian Cream.

Not sure on juices yet, but wine has a very, very definite curve. It takes a while to get to that peak, but it most certainly does not stay there. The improvement starts slowing down as it hits the peak so there's a nice window to enjoy it at it's best, and it does the same on the downhill side. I would bet juices work pretty similarly, just with a wider bell curve which would give them a nice big window at the top. I have noticed that most manufacturers put anywhere between 1 & 3 years on the label, but I would bet with proper storage that could easily be doubled if not more.
You can actually shake it as much as you want ...... but you need to stop when your eyesight starts to go bad.
hey Oz (you know i was playing on that other post, right?)What kind of tanks are you using?
screenshot pc[/URL]Oh he was there, I was doing some fast talking. And it was a cold day on the Outside, so I needed to get somewhere warm ... FAST !
Too late ~ I went half blind years ago !!
Cold liquid is pretty muted until it comes back up to room-temp.
Note: Menthal liquids may not benefit from refrigeration. I have heard menthal can revert back to its original form if it gets too cold (crystals)
