iso, vodka or everclear
the key thing is to remove the o-ring from the top of the bottle and clean it thoroughly before replacing. cuz that is a flavor trapper

Definitely. Had this problem two days ago. Oring was culprit. Soaked in iso overnight and all better next day.
buy a bunch of bottles. They can be cleaned out enough to use with new flavors if the flavor profiles are similar, but if your sense of taste is sensitive at all, you'll notice the lingering flavor. To me, it's well worth the 65 cents or whatever to get to taste my flavors the way I want to taste them.
I prefer Everclear but I have also read where people used denture cleaner tablets to clean coils and atomizers. Might be something to look into. Good luck to you.
sitting in coffee grounds help to remove stubborn smells as well and smell is a big part of taste.
We use denture cleaners in the household for teapots, thermos cans and other stained food containers.
I tried them with liquid bottles of all sorts and they work very well.
The ones we use leave a faint mint aroma, that goes away after the first fill and doesn't disturb me

Iso or grain alcohol,everclear whatever then a quick hot water rinse and repeat with alcohol. Definitley clean everything o-rings included
Keep in mind that the feed tube and the guts of the 510 will also pick up traces as well...I'm not super sensitive to that but I bought a Grand off the classys once where the previous owner vaped this flavour that, well...only way I could describe it, take a pound of hamburger and put it in the truck of your car for a week (in Aug.)...I threw away the bottles, feed tube and seals/insulators in the 510 away, then soaked the body and parts in Acetone for a couple days before I finally rid of the smell/taste...obviously pretty extreme...but it can be done.
White vinegar works wonders
Yes I have used this, but you should not soak in vinegar. I only know this because it dissolved the glue/silicone on one of my ProTanks one day when I first started vaping. I am only admitting this in order to help someone else NOT make the same mistake I did.
WoW, acetone. Sorry Quiqs not putting anything like that in acetone.
I have found rubbing alcohol works best. I soak the bottle & run it thru the tube and connector, pinch the end of the tube & fill the connector & tube for a while also.
