Best way to taste test liquids

[Sally_]

I plan on trying out some different mixes of flavors so I'm looking for a good way to taste test liquids. I've always read dripping is the best way to go, I found a 901 bridgeless attomizer to go on my 808, but I can't get the hang of getting rid of one flavor before switching flavors.

I've read you can dry burn to get rid of a flavor. But I've never had good luck with dry burning when trying to clean coil heads on my Mt3s. If I don't totally wreck it, there's a lingering burnt taste, to the point that after trying to restore 2-3 heads I now just toss em.

I vape till it almost no flavour then I drip next flavour, I don't do dry burn or even rinse it

I have a blog about dipping you may find useful. It references 510 & 306 attys, but it's the same no matter what the threading is.

Drip, Drip, Drip…

I've never liked dry burning. It's a personal preference. People often insist that I'm doing it wrong or whatever...don't bother asking me how much I care. When I switch flavors I either blow out the atty and put a similar flavor on top (the second taste will overcome the first) or vape unflavored until I can't taste whatever was in it. I've also used Flavor Eraser, which works quite well. Throwing them away works well too. I buy cheap, buy in bulk and expect a high failure from all of the little mass-produced things we use.

I just rinse them in hot water, blow out the excess, dry burn a bit to make sure they are dry and start up the new flavor.

I do what Ocelot and Myrany do. Rinse, blow them out, and dry burn. Seems to work like a charm.

Except that I don't dry burn.

Check out using microcoils with cotton in a rebuildable dripping atomizer. When you swap flavors just take the cotton out and replace it.

Don't forget about the 306 atomizer. It's a 3-hit wonder. Doesn't hold but just a small amount of liquid, giving 2 to 4 hits, and then it's ready for a refill. Great for taste testing. I'm gonna order a couple more LR atomizers with my next order.

i usually taste test by freebasing it in a spoon...then rubbing it on my gums and dropping it right into my eyeballs....if i still like it after that. it's a keeper!

Thanks for the awesome blog post The Ocelot. For someone like me just starting to drip, there is a ton of great information in there.
Thanks again for sharing that!!

Holy cow, Ocelot that blog is awesome. Just looking at it you can tell you put a lot of thought into it, thanks for even writing it and bringing it to my attention. Maybe I just don't know where to look or something but I hadn't been able to find a lot of info on dripping, which is odd because usually I can find a ton of info and how to's on just about anything vape related, so all the replies and info from everyone has been really helpful. Thanks guys
