Cleansing your palette

[Ragman]

Not sure on spelling.

But anyway, I am wondering what you guys reccomend I eat/drink to cleanse my palette between flavors?

Saltines? Water? juice?

Ideas?

green tea and black black coffee have been used. A little ginger to chew. Or a light cold sorbet (food tasting). I use green tea myself,chew gum (for saliva) or nibble a few crackers. But I don't do a lot of DIY I just like to refresh between flavor change overs.

Cleansing the palate is done to help you taste something better, so you have two options. If you eat something sour for example, then eat something sweet, it will taste sweeter than normal. So you could use a counterpoint food/drink to what you're vaping. Other than that you can eat something light on flavor like bread or crackers or drink a light drink that is different from what you're vaping. I find that chewing gum while vaping mostly masks the flavor, but it definitely can be tasty if it goes with the flavor.

Ginger is great for cleaning, as is plain white bread. I found that anything fatty is not good at all (shame, since that includes cheese).

I find that taking a couple of breaths of fresh air works wonders......

I 2nd the votes for ginger. The kind you eat/get with sushi. YUM. Hmmmm what about pickled ginger e-juice? Would that be yummy?

A sip of good whiskey or vodka does the trick for me. Carbonated beverages tend to dull my buds.

I know this may sound weird, but sherbert should cleanse your palette. I've had it at restaurants, in between meals. Seemed to do the trick for me.

I meant in between the courses, not the meals. Otherwise I'd be as big as a house.

I think you mean sorbet, not sherbert.
Sherbert is made with eggs and/or dairy, while sorbet is usually just fruit and ice for the most part... so it's a lot lighter and doesn't linger flavorwise.

 

[stroh22]

Yeah, you're probably right. I just knew it was something fruity and cold.

Sorry, I just have to: It's Sherbet...not Sherbert

 

[stroh22]

Yeah, whatever - it's all the same to me. Semantics...........

I drink unsweetened Earl Grey tea when doing DIY. For some reason this helps eliminate the flavors from the previous mix.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Green tea it is.

I gotta be careful... I vape like crazy when I mix. Maybe Ill mix just plain vg and when I find something I like the taste of Ill try to add the Nic VG.
