Can't get rid of nasty taste on atty!!!

[TheRealBFG]

I have a super-mini and I've tried like all these suggestions on cleaning the atty, but nothing I do seems to work. There is still a really nasty after-taste like burning confectionery sugar. Even tried putting a strong menthol on it but it still tastes like burning ....-hair with mint... any suggestions?

Sadly if you've done all of the suggested cleaning methods; blowing it out, controlled burn, rinsing it, etc, then it may just be a burnt out atomizer. What model is it? How long have you had it? How much do you vape each day? What cleaning methods have you tried?

Not sure the exact model as I bought it from a local smoke shop. It's a Randy's brand. Looks like a super mini. I bought a 510 afterward so it's not really a huge deal but if I can use it as a back-up it would be nice. I've tried blowing it out, dry burn, vaping just plain PG, over-powering it with menthol, to no avail. Like I said no biggie, I have a 510 that works very well, but if I can save the other one I'd like to.

I have had a couple out of a hundred or so so that. I toss mine if it happens. start a new one..

Doots is right, some can't be saved - toss it

it smelled bad. like ....-hair was burning and i tried all the methods of cleaning it to no avail.. tried the other atomizer it's fine, just get a new one, and have back ups.. you'll be alright! get some low resistance atomizers, they got insane vapor and throat hit.. just use thin vg if you use that and you'll get clouds

..... I'm wondering what burned .... hair smells like. How will I know if I have the same problem. Anyone want to vol. to burn theirs? lol, sry... couldn't resist the pun. Just sounded funny to me reading the statements.

Boil it a couple of times and dry burn.

I'm in the same boat.
