I don't know from nothin' here, to be honest, but you mentioned cleaning with rubbing alcohol and I've heard people say it's risky to do that because sometimes it's hard to get the flavor of THAT out. Did you rinse and rinse and clean after the alcohol cleaning?

It taste like coils with clouds lol, sometimes my vtube reads .4 and then .5... I cleaned the tank and coil with rubbing alcohol and try again since that coil is new and I tried this week but since the flavor wasn't pleasant I didn't vape from it at all.

It sounds like either a hot leg or hotspot on the coil. What vg/pg ratio are you using? Air flow setting?
If its a hot spot on the coil, this is sometimes caused by the juice not wicking fast enough. Some fixes for this is shutting down the air flow some to increase the vacuum in the tank (specially with higher vg liquids), or poking the wick with a needle.
If its a hot leg, that's more difficult to fix on a pre made coil, and you might just want to replace it

Yes I did, just waiting for the juice to soak well and try a hit.

The juice is 50/50 PG/VG... and for the air flow... I have it fully open since the liquid seems being more thicker and I heard for those liquids, the air flow should be opened... maybe is that wrong? and idk about the legs... when I cleaned the coil I saw a bit saying hi but I didn't saw nothing weird rather than when cleaning the rubbing alcohol... the coil had like a lot of black residues... I cleaned it with a q-tip and leave it soak the liquid to try again and see if there's any improvement.

That's actually opposite. Thinner juices need more air/less vacuum, so as not to over saturate and flood your coil, thicker juices need more vacuum to wick well, which requires less air flow ;)

I just finished a bottle of banana-based juice from Mitten Vapors that I LOVED. It's called Sinking Ship and it got me re-interested in the banana vapes. I might have to give the Funky Monkey a try. Creamy banana custard? Yes please! :D The Mrs. Samoa sounds wonderful, too. I got a 5 ml bottle of coconut juice from a vendor with an order I placed once. Can't remember who... Maybe The Plume Room? I didn't think I would like it but I really did. It's funny how something can sound like a terrible juice idea until you actually find a good one, lol.

Hey @USMCotaku... The cleaning and closing like 90% of the air flow did some improvements... xD let us know what goodies you get from the giveaway! And about the Miss Samoa... I get you, I totally looove it! The Two from Apollo Signature is the same taste =P

That is my favorite flavor from the bunch I received so far. It really is just like the cookie...which I love too! I keep tasting the juice and I'm pretty sure it would go well on top of some ice cream :lol:

I was searching for a samoa flavored eliquid and ended up here. :) It does sound delicious!! I like the new flavors Apollo has developed - sure sound tasty.:toast: Like that delicious sounding Fa-Q Fauxtess Cupcakes. Yum yum!!
