I haven't been at this long enough to have amassed much experience, but I did boil my atomizers recently - two 901s and a super-mini - and they worked good-as-new after. My regimen:

1. Dry-smoke a few puffs after removing a cart before using a new one to clear the atomizer.

2. Blow into the battery end and drain the atomizers onto a napkin at night. Yes, I know, this is liquid lost, but cest la vie.

3. When the above stops resulting in a satisfactory vaping experience, boil the little suckers, allow to cool, blow out the excess water and drain onto a napkin.

Alcohol seems to do a good job, I agree. Ive made my own alcohol cleaner. i got a little de-soldering tool (kinda like an enema bulb) I soak the atomizer first in some alcohol and then stick it in the bulb battery side in and use it to gently draw alcohol in and out. Always works better after this treatment. I don't think a penstyle atomizer would fit, i've got the DSE901

I think i need to start useing the hairdryer after, but it always works great, whenever it starts to lessen the smoke output.
I had one that was real bad, and i used alcohol that way, it cleaned out all the thick gunk.
