I have been using FSUSA flavors on my Joye 510 system. In the past when I receive a new flavor, it is great tasting in the begining, no burned taste and producing loads of vapor. Now the taste of any of the flavors compares to drinking distilled water, flat and tasteless and no TH.
I use mega 510 batteries and standard attys, wash my attys and empty carts with 70% iso and replace the poly filler every three days. Still producing massive amounts of vapor indicating the atty is properly wicking but the flavor is gone. I have been regularly using coconut, menthol and doublemint flavors at 50pg/50vg, 24mg in 30ml bottles kept at room temperature. I switch flavors only when supplies run low and I receive a new flavor. I always shake the bottle before refilling or topping off the carts.
Is this something I can expect, need to change flavors a couple times a day, or are my taste buds simply burning out?

butt_ugly, how long have you been of cigs??? Most of us have hit the no taste wall at one point or another. It mostly raises its ugly head around the 4-6 week quit period. Nobody really knows why but the good thing is that it only lasts about 24-48 hours. I know it was the most frustratiin point of my vaping experience when it bit me. Also a cold or the onset of a sickness can produce the same "no taste" issue. To combat this I keep all my "unvapeables" in a box and when it happens I grab that crap and hit it with menthol drops. Hope that helps and best of luck. Let us know how you make out.

Thats incredible, hitting a "no taste wall". I started vaping in early-mid Jan after burning a pk a day for 30 years and have not had an analog since the 2nd day of vaping. I'll never go back, I'll just sit this out. Thanks for giving me hope.

Well that is just about the timeframe it hit me then. I was 1.5PAD for 28 years. Hang in there it will pass. Take cskent's advise and rule out hardware but it really does sound like the "no taste brick wall" to me. Do not cave for the analog. I know I wanted one and just fought through it. By the end of the day I just went to bed early and the next morning things where better. If you need help type away there are members here who have gone through the same thing. This will pass and you will have made it over what I found to be the last major hurdle on my journey to be smoke free. Best of luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm on day 19 and am going through the same thing. I can vape menthol in my ego-t tanks and it's fine. When I got my very berry 18mg 70/30 from provape, I could barely taste it and had to resort to dripping on a LR 510 atty with the ego-t battery. About an hour ago I got some watermelon from backwoods brew (which is excellent, btw) and can somewhat taste it on the tank system. Dripping however, it is a blast of natural watermelon flavor. I have five of the new ego-t LR attys on the way that WT just got in. Lets hope that this solves the taste issue for me.
