Question on what I may be doing wrong? I seem to be burning up my carts wayyy to fast. Last night before I went to bed, changed cart and filled. This morning, had a few puffs and the "burned" taste is already there??? I have been topping off.....

Is it possible to have a bad batch? I have a KGO and just bought a box of new carts....Just frustrating :-( Before this batch, it seemed I could go for a long time.....now....I almost am waiting for the burn taste?

Any suggestions?

Sounds like your not getting them as full as you might think. Good rule of thumb on first fill is condom method, THEN top it off. Give the Carto a good 5 to 10 minutes AFTER fill and recheck it (I GENTLY roll the fresh fills in my hands to be sure they are well filled) !! Remember you want the top to be "slushy" looking when your done!

Good luck!

If you are filling it that way until the filler, as viewed from the top of the carto looks slushy, The carto is full. Typically, the carto will need to be topped of with more drops every hour or so, maybe less, depending on how often you vape. When you top off, take your time, give the juice time to settle into the carto so that you know when the filler is saturated again. Also, be careful to try and keep juice out of the center air tube when topping off. If you get a burning flavor that won't go away, the carto is probably trashed. Once truly burnt, the taste will never go away and it's time to replace it.
