    Different Cottons for different wicks

    That's not cool but I'm sure you'll get it soon. Really want to see if the inside is setup like my did clone or if it has equal sized posts.

    Best Flavor

    Yeah the darker a mix is fresh, it's going to get several times darker with steeping. My 2 cleanest mixes that take weeks to gunk up a wick are blueberry extra and double ry4. My cigar carmel vanilla gunks up a wick within days it's so dark.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Three hours is fine, glad you soaked! Most of us squeeze juice in our tank think that looks wet then choke on burnt cotton before we learn lol. Bamboo doesn't sound very good to me haveing worked with bamboo in solid form. The reason it probably tastes like wood is because it has the...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    I really like the way that atty looks. When you get it you have to take some pics of the inside so I can see if I may want to get one. Very cuious about if it's stainless steel or chome plated as well. Love the bottle neck look.

    *Steeping Methods* Instant/Long Term

    Everyone when they first start mixing is a mix and vape after a shake. In time you'll end up putting a mix away you didn't like fresh, find it a month later and think it's the best thing since salad shooter. The same reason everyone first trying to rebuild with cotton will fill the tank think...

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    The large 3.5 tank is built different than the 2.5 mini vivi nova even though they both take the same size atty head. The smaller mini novas are built different as well and take different length atty heads (much larger/longer). With my mini 2.5 the 510 connector and negetive center post with the...

    *Steeping Methods* Instant/Long Term

    Todays seed steeping taste test As you all know after only 2 days the color changed like it had been steeping for weeks and tasted very good. Todays taste test is amazing, After only one week my Double Ry4 tastes just as delicious as a 5-6 week steep and has completely finished darkening...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Yes I boil every type of cotton I have tried and I recommend everyone should as well. Even if it was safe without boiling it will taste much cleaner if you do.

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Two seperate pieces on each side (neither piece touching or over lapping the coil). I mainly did this at first because i modified the slots larger for cheese cloth, but it preformed so well I kept doing so. Also when rolling your wick between your fingers until it slides easily through the coil...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    Wrapped 33 awg kanthal 4 wraps on medium size thick sewing needle and mounted. Side view so you can see how small the coil is. Wrapping coil wraps side by side so they're close together as possible (will not short). Twist your wick until you can easily thread it through the coil without...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    How to make really long durable wicks with cotton rounds. This method wastes less cotton, also some coil/wick designs require longer wicks (like the spin-e). Already boiled and dried cotton round. Take your scissors and start cutting from the outside moving inward in a spiral direction. I...

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    Yeah I guess I'll see for myself if the center post and connector can come apart. They have to somehow after a simple inspection it's like most atties with the entire outside negative and the center positive sepereated by a type of silicone. I'll let you guys know after i figure it out.

    Vivi Nova Rebuild tutorial

    I have noticed on one of my vivi mini novas the center post seems slightly crooked now. On the minis I thought the conter post and connection were a solid piece. Do these pop apart somehow? I'll see for myself during the next rebuild, but wanted to see what you guys have to say. Again these are...

    Wizard Labs- Your Favorite Flavors

    Absolutely love the Double Ry4 mixed at 10%. I didn't vape it very often because I didn't let it steep long enough before. Now it's one of my favorites. Also I love how clean it vapes, been going on over 2 weeks on the same wick. No smoky or sludgey taste, tastes as fresh as it did with a new...

    Different Cottons for different wicks

    *Steeping Methods* Instant/Long Term

    Well I have to vouche for seed steeping that it definitely works. The double Ry4 I mix at 10% usually takes a month for the flavors to settle, if vaped fresh before the color change it tastes musty. After seeding my fresh batch, it's now been 48 hours and the color change has already happened...

    Best Flavor

    When talking about best flavor, the question isn't which attomizer. The question for best flavor would be what wick type and what gauge kanthal/nichrome you prefer for best flavor. The answer that follows is a mix of preference, opinion, and success of experience using said materials. For...

    Wizard Labs- Your Favorite Flavors

    I wanted to mix up a larger batch of double ry4 but didn't have any larger bottles. So I used a glass cigar tube I had laying around, looks pretty cool. Also made a styrofoam holder it fits snug into so it stands upward. Also when it comes to seed steeping, I only added several drops of already...
