New to this and may need advice

[Buckleyburn78]

Hi everyone, I am new to the vaping thing and I enjoy it a lot so far. The problem I am having now is that none of my eliquids taste like anything anymore. I have only been vaping a few weeks so I didn't think that would happen so quickly. I have switched out coils and tried different liquids. If this question has already been asked, please let me know. I am not 100% knowledgeable on forum usage. Thanks a lot!

I use a Kanger SUB VOD

Oh! Any suggestions?

Yeah, happens all the time. I just got my taste back. It's called vapers tongue and there's tons of threads on the topic. Everyone has their own remedies for it, from smelling coffee grounds, to mouthwash, to brushing your tongue when you do your teeth to menthol flavors. It'll come back. And it's the perfect time to use up some juice that isn't your favourite.

Welcome to the Buckleyburn78.

Switching Flavors during the day can Help. Some people say eating something Acidic like a Pickle Chip can work wonders. And Drinking plain old Water is always a Good Call.

A lot depends on How Much you Vape and How Often you Vape.

I messed around with my settings after reading a posts here on coils, ohms, watts. What a difference it made. Select the search here on the forum or Google ecigarette atomizer ohms-What are they and how they affect your vape. May help.
Don't feel bad about forum usage...I am the worst. I couldn't find my own conversation for days.

A list of symptoms when quitting tobacco and changing to an ecigarette
re: 'Vaper's Tongue'
Many vapers report that all e-liquids lose their flavor for a period. Another factor is the change in taste perception, mainly a loss of taste, caused by smoking, together with its return after tobacco cessation, followed by a period experienced by many when taste goes dead for a time during the first few months off cigarettes, even for those who have not used menthol. Vaper's Tongue soon passes. Some people give advice in how to speed up the return of taste, which can include methods such as vaping unflavored refills, using specific mouthwashes, and so on; but the sense of taste soon returns whatever is done or not done.

i switched to rayon from cotton for wicking. that cured 99.9%,, then an odd thing happened early this year,,,,,no humidity in Houston...I had to go buy a cheap humidifier.-- your sense of taste is based on your sense of smell. sometimes I would get a stuffed up nose.. time to take a cold/sinus med,, breath deep in the hot shower. thin down my near max vg juice. and vape flavors I didn't care much for.-- last time I had it,,, was for about a day,, before the rayon switch the VT would last a week.

rayon,,,,stuffed in the coil then thin it down more than you think to the juice holes= perfect.

I just change flavors quite a bit, seems to work for me. If you use the same for too long you get vt

Jalapenos...eat 'em...don't vape 'em.

That, along with the mass quantities of liquid consumption immediately afterward, should clear up the Vaper's Tongue.

Vapor's tongue is kind of the same effect you get from smelling too many cologne's, one after another. It's why they keep those bottles of coffee grounds around to help clear the palette. For vaping, a nice icy menthol vape usually does the trick for me. I like to keep one handy, especially when tasting new juices in case I run into something particularly nasty and I want to get the taste out of my mouth before continuing on.

A blast of menthol juice, brushing your teeth well with especial attention to the tongue surface and lowering the VG content work well to combat vapers' tongue for me.

I know this sounds stupid but i find if u kinda snap inhale and leave it in your mouth a little before inhaling helps so its more on taste buds. Also brush yo damn teeth to get that fresh flava flav.

Rayon helps with vaper's tongue? Really?

Is it because you say it can be chain vaped that that's the case?

I can't imagine how being able to be chain vaped will help - unless someone is getting vaper's tongue because they're chain vaping on cotton, and because it's unable to wick fast enough, lots of hits will be dry and taste bad?

the cotton was acting like an old wet rug,, kinda doing nothing,, rayon was moving the juice to the wick.
cotton absorbs liquids,,but doesn't move those liquids as well as rayon.
so think of a wet rug,, getting 'dirt build up' every time you walk on it.. it sort of just cant hold more water/liquid and becomes more solid.

bottom line,,,,,,,i was vaping 20+/- mls with cotton and having chronic vapors tongue.. now I vape an easy 30mls -50/60 on mix days,, and no vapors tongue. I will never go back to cotton.
