There is a subforum dedicated to rebuildables here: Rebuildable Atomizer Systems
You won't be able to post there until after you get the minimal 5 posts here in the New Members forum, but once you do you can after the system resets (usually within one hour). But that shouldn't keep you from going there and start learning.
I've only had my AGA T+ up and working for about a week. I've been getting clouds of vapor but the flavor is not up to par to my cartotanks yet. The vets have told me it can take the wick a while to "season", so I'm counting on that to be true.
I just made a second coil on mine last evening. My first had an ohm rating of 1.5, which was a little harsh for me. I generally prefer a cooler vape so I wrapped the new second coil to be 2.0 ohm.
What ohm is your coil and are you using a metal mesh or cotton/silica wick? And what device is powering your AGA?

You'll be able to start making ridiculously low ohm builds and creating freight train like clouds

Your flavors are "a lot differnet". That can mean various things.....like how??
No flavor or muted flavor, burt flavor, metalic flavor......need more info to help diagnose.
Like Bad stated, if you are having muted or decreased flavor, keep vaping, vape hard. The wick will need time to "season", IME that is around 10-15ml of juice. After a few tanks, you should notice your flavor picking up.
If you are getting a burt or metalic taste, you likely have a hot spot and need to adjust your wick and/or coil.
What kind of wire are you running? What gauge? What voltage are you using?

I'm using my AGA on both a Provari and a Silver Bullet. The Silver Bullet is a mechanical mod that uses an 18650 battery. You can get an extension sleeve (sold out at the moment) from Altsmoke and add a Kick for variable wattage. It's the white mod sporting a pyrex cartotank in the below pic.
Look in the forum Baditude pointed you to.
Buying a new mod will not help. Learning to build a good wick and coil will.
Does the wick need to season every time you put in a new flavour or only the first time?
Edit: Hey, it's already been more than a month since I've smoked my last analog!

^^^PLUS ONE ON THAT^^^
In between flavors I rinse out my tank and wash the wick (scrub the gunk off it with warm water and my fingernail). and pat the wick dry. I then do a quick torch to just burn the water out of the wick. wrap a new coil and fill the tank.
And YES, it does take some time for the flavor to come back after a cleaning.
Congrats on making your first month!!!
And also have in mind it can and most likely will take you quite a few tries before you got it down solid. I think I had 5-6 hours of trial and error before I got my Cobra RBA up and running great consistently.
If it gets frustrating, you can always set up the Aga with a silica wick while gathering the courage to try SS mesh again. It's super easy setting it up with silica.

I spent ages trying to get my aga-t working when I first got it. I kept getting a metallic taste in my mouth. At first I thought it was the drip tip but discovered it was due to a short on the coil.
Once you get it set up properly a ss wick will last ages but if your anything like me you'll be playing with it constantly.
It does take a bit of trial and error but it's well worth it in the end.

I've had my AGA set up for about 2 weeks now. I've changed the juice flavor 3-4 times using the same SS wick. I just withdrew the juice from the tank using a long blunt needle & syringe and refilled with a different flavor. It takes several vapes for the flavor to change over using the same wick, but I don't mind that.
I don't see a need to wrap a new coil with every flavor change. Once you have a nice working wick and coil, count your blessings and enjoy it.
