E-Liquid having the same sweet taste...

[Ocropoid994]

Hi around 1 month ago i bought a Argus Pod, i started with Fruity Liquids and i really liked them, after 1 week i tried a liquid called "Cereal Killer" it just had a sweet taste to it nothing also, no cereal taste, no milk taste... nothing just sweet, i thought maybe it was me not liking sweet liquids.
1 Week goes by and i give it another shot with "Too Puft", same result, could just taste the sweetness like sugar, nothing else.
Today i gave it another shot and bought "Pound it", SAME identical taste of the other two. Am i doing something wrong or is the pod ?

Hi and welcome,

I would buy another replacement pod or two at the resistance you prefer and try again.
Some pods seem to last for 50ml or more and some others will be needing replacement after only 10ml. YMMV
Which Argus pod are you using? Model/coil resistance?
What is the nicotine strength of the liquid you are using?
How long did you smoke and how many per day?


Cheers
I

Also keep in mind that most commercial juice is loaded with sweeteners. I liked it at first but after awhile I could not stand the sweet commercial juices. My tastebuds changed.

Argus Pod 800mAh the one with the screen where you can set the wattage.​

also each time i bought a new liquid as i mentioned in the post i always bought a new resistance to be sure.

Try lowering your wattage and if you can open up the af more. A cooler vape calms down the sweetness and allows the other flavors to shine better. If you prefer a warmer vape you can try combining a complimentary less sweet juice to the too sweet juices.

Pretty much all commercially available liquid uses Sucralose as a sweetener.

It's way overpowering even at 0.5%, also it's well known to gunk up and kill off coils.

Only way to try and avoid it @Ocropoid994 is to go DIY, easiest way is with one shots or flavour packs.

I used coffee and chai tea juices in the mornings when starting out to avoid the sweeter juices which oddly I was fine with for about a year. DIY really is looking into if you don't care for sweeter juices; that or pay more for juices from companies that allow requests/ tailored juice.

I have changed coil resistants and % of mix to get rid of the sweetness. With disposables it’s a real toss up unless you know what the manufacturer uses.

Personally, I like sweet flavors. Commercial juices can be overly sweet though. Whenever I do DIY, I also use sweetener but only sparingly. In a 120Ml batch, depending on the recipe, I add sweetener by the drop. Usually 12 or 15 drops to the whole batch. And this is plenty sufficient.

I used to have a batch made by a friend, 35% flavoring, all mint, no menthol, 50/50. Loved it

I have changed coil resistants

What coil "resistants" did you change?

What device exactly?

I did an experiment once and made a Lemon flavor with very high percentage of 3 different lemon flavorings. it was quite tart I must say.
