Changing Flavors - Cleaning attys

[chrislaubach]

Still learning about this "miracle" hobby. Three weeks off of analogs and no real issues so far. Have already built a couple of nicobox mods to go along with a 510. As many have done, I have stocked up with plenty of spares as well as a fair share of different juices.

Question - What is the best way to get the lingering taste of the last juice used when switching to a new cart/juice. Some flavors seem to linger forever despite efforts to blow out excess liquid. Others are not so bad (fruit to fruit switches are less problematic.) Any easy tips without going to full cleaning mode on the atty?

Try blowing out well and then rinsing in some EverClear Pure Grain Alcohol (a short soak and blow out, let the alcohol evaporate for a bit and reprime the atty with your new e-liquid).

Menthol and some flavors may need a longer soak. I've soaked some of mine to clean over night.

If you can't get/find PGA, use Vodka (good proof). BTW, never use ISO alcohol in your atomizers. It is toxic and just not a good idea.

I tend to use one atty exclusively for the fruits, one for speicifc known 'lingerers' (like atomic from TV) and one for everything else (and at least one spare). This way I dont need to try going from fruit to say coffee and wating a ton going thru transition tastes.
Fruit +tobacco is ok, ditto coffee/toffee/tobacco/choc they all seem to blend in fine, but fruit to coffee/rum/buttery - no lol.
