I would blow from the top end. I actually have been wondering this myself, what is the best way to clear out eliquid from the new aspire atlantis coils. Normally I would just replace the wick with Japanese organic cotton in my RBA, but these coils are so expensive I am afraid to take them apart to see if I can replace the wick. So What I did was I put the coil under the sink and let the water fill the whole coil for a few mins. Then blow into the top of the coil so the excess water and juice comes out, so blow on it a few times and then put it back under the water faucet, and let it fill again and then blow it out again, and I did this probably about 4-5 times. At this point after blowing out as much water as I could to try to dry it. Letting it sit to air dry concerns me that it won't work that well, especially because I cant really feel the wicking material to tell if its damp or what, so really what I decided to do was to put the coil on a tray and put it in the oven on 350 for about 20-30 mins. I took it out and it seems just fine. I don't know if this is a smart method to dry it out or not, but hey so far I think it seems to work. Does anyone have any idea how to replace the wick from these ultra expensive coils?
