Burnt taste

[Xtremepeinz]

So I'm new to vaping, got myself a cheap set and it working fine till I refill the juice and it suddenly taste burnt. What could be the reason? Do I need to change anything?

What exactly are you refilling? How many times have you done so?

Depending in what set up. It could be many reasons.

Might not be wicking properly. Fill it and let it sit for a while.

What is your set up?

Please let us know if it is a cartomizer or other type. If you don't know, leave a description. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. It's like an ego T. Not sure what it's actually is tho.

Depending what type of "tank" and where you got it, it could be the wick. I've seen more than one knockoff EVOD tank come with a bad wick. Quick swap with a new wick, preferably the slightly larger protank wicks, which are now supposed to be standard in all kanger EVOD/Protanks. Sadly, this issue is more common than you'd think. Another less likely possibility is that your wick is either dry or if you rinsed it with water while filling it isn't fully dry. Either of those will cause the burnt taste as well. Water and oil don't mix, so if you wash a wick, you have to dry it completely before using it again.

That might be the case, cause I did rinse it with water. It may have not been completely dry when I filled it. What should I do if that's the problem?

i have a EVOD Twist that i just got yesterday and had the same problem.. what i did was took the tank apart and were the heating coil seporates from the tank theres a stem that goes thru the tube.. take the clear rubber cap off and turn it upside down and replace everything..
with mine if i took a big hit(vape, drag what ever) it would have a weird kinda burn taste.. so i put the internet to use and researched it.. found a link that pointed to that rubber piece not allowing fluids to wick around the rubber.. and to flip it over.. i have not had any leaking and everythings working fine... i hope this helps

Take a few pulls without pressing the fire button to help the wicking get the juice in The trick with the rubber grommet only will help should you have a bottom coil tank like an evod. Usually an ego T has a CE top coil clearo though.

I clean my tanks with swabs and alcohol or let the Kanger for example soak in alcohol and then leave them to dry. I have had much success with this. Make sure they are dry! And don't put your wicks in it.
It could be that you didn't let it sit for a bit. Some Ati's have to properly soak up juice or you get a burnt taste. Also, if you aren't waiting enough time between each inhale. Maybe it is getting too hot.There is a lot of good info above, try whatever you think will work.

Thanks for all the help guys. The burnt taste is gone now. What I did was just letting it sits there for a day without using it and it works. Will be getting an actual ego set for myself soon.
