Anti-Freeze in or out
Do you leave the anti-freeze in all winter, or drain it after you flush the lines? I have watched several tutorials, and none mention draining the lines after flushing with pink until it comes out ...

Maybe I am too stupid to understand... what is the benefit of immediately draining the antifreeze after running it through?
If your Pex lines are retaining the taste of the antifreeze, you need to replace your lines. They should not absorb, and if they are absorbing the taste of the antifreeze they are also absorbing bacteria from the water and will make you sick.
