Cleaning a Nautilus

[StringBean30]

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has a good method of cleaning the Aspire nautilus base hardware? Do you just run it under hot water and let it dry out or do you dismantle it?

Regards,

I typically just take it apart (into the 3 main pieces) and run them in some warm (Not hot) water and let them air dry.

Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!

Rinse & dry in general (like poster above me). Every couple of weeks I do a full clean and soak in dish detergent. However, the coil I soak in vodka (no dish detergent).

The flavor comes from juice thats being heated up by the atomizer... so unless you washed the atomizer which should be an obvious thing not to do, then I wouldn't see any reason for you not getting flavor.

Was the coil still attached to the base when you did this? and if it was, did you give it over night or 24 hrs to dry all the way out?

I just run it under very hit water then let it air dry. I normally hold it in front of my fan if I'm
In a hurry to refill it. This has always worked fine for me. No issues at all. Good luck & vape on

I rinse my tanks in hot water using a $3 strainer I bought at Walmart. This is so I don't lose any washers or tiny bits but it also makes it easy to jostle the hardware around underneath hot running water without scorching two of my favorite digits. Of course, I don't include my coils/wicks. For my Kanger and Aspire coils, I just dab those off with a paper towel to remove the residual juice on the outside. I figure the juice on the coil will burn away once refilled and vaped. I don't bother cleaning them as it seems a waste for something that only lasts a couple weeks at best.

Rinse and fill (NOT the atomizer).... I dry the outside, but fill it wet.... I have no paranoia.
