Can some juices clog your coils ?

I have the nautilus thank, and recently i ran out of my juice (custom made from a good shop) and just grabbed an off the shelf one at a local convinicence store

after a few hours, the liquid starts to look very dark, and I have trouble sucking the vapour as if it's clogged, the coils are actually less than a week old, so they are not needing replacing yet

could a lesser quality liquid cause a problem like this, or is it something else ?

Actually if your coil contains silica wicks you can dry burn them all you want without harm. Cotton would require replacement.

It sounds like whatever new juice the original poster was using gunked up the coils. Search youtube for cleaning and dry burning Nautilus coils. Lots of great "How-To" videos out there to learn from.

I did, and seems quite easy on the nautilus, I just wonder why this liquid 'gunked up' so quickly, ill stick to the quality stuff

I'm running 50/50 in my Nautilus and Mini-Nautilus. I thought the problem was with the BDC coils in my full size but having the same issue with the new BVC coils. The BVC worked great to start out but after a day and a half the resistance jumped from 1.8 to 2.4 and it's vaping lousy. That's the new BVC coils in both the mini and full size Nautilus. I'm using MVP2 and ItasteVV. I turned them both up to 11 Watts as the BVC's were working great.

Put a new BVC in my full size Nautilus last night which read 1.9 ohms and after a hundred or so toots it's up to 2.6 ohms and taste burnt. Use MtBaker 50/50, 12mg.

The new BVC I put in my mini Nautilus originally was 1.8 ohms but quickly went up to 2.0 ohms and seams to have stabilized, at least for now. I gave up running at 11 watts and switched VV and using 4.0 to about 4.4 volts.

This is really making me sad. I've never had a problem with Kanger mini pro 2 and mini pro 3.

Anyone have any suggestions??? I'm going to go through these 10 coils in no time if I don't figure this out,
