E liquid...HELP!!

[cgood420]

IS it just me or does anyone else just get a burnt a chemical taste from their e liquids??
is this the nicotine??
I know i am not hitting it dry because i used Carto's, carts, and direct dripping n its always a bad taste.
And im pretty sure its not the e liquid its self because if tried about 5 flavors n they all have just a tint of there labeled flavor but the main taste is a chemically burnt gross taste. A cola flavored actually made me throw up!!!!

SOMEONE please help! wat am i doing wrong??

I have 510 and yeah my e liquid is from china...... does USA e liquid really taste that much better?

cause i just get a wierd taste in general from the e liquids ive gotten

My advice is to try different vendors, to see if that "taste" carries over. What type of PV (e-cig) are you using? I haven't tried any China made liquids, but I have tried two vendors of USA made liquids, and they're very tasty!

For me personally I blamed the burnt and harsh taste on my liquid at first but found out it went after cleaning my atty using these steps. Bear in mind others might have better cleaning methods - I for one will try the vodka approach next time.

1. Blow out all remaining juice from batt thread end.

2. Wash thoroughly under hot water.

3. Leave to air dry over night with mouth end of atty down and batt thread up.

4. vaping about .5ml or so od juice and after that burnt taste and harsh hit is gone and we are back to normal

5. I didn't dry burn but I believe this can lessen the ammount you need to vape before bad taste goes - ie step 4.

I think the trick is to make sure atty is always kept wet with juice and the burnt taste should be kept at bay better.

Just my newbs tuppence based on 3.5 weeks of vaping so far!

Most of the time it can't be blamed on juice, however some thick, sweet, dark juices don't do well on higher voltage or often get gunk ed up in your atty. I find that Cartrige or Carto fillers cause this more often then not. Keep your atty clean, blow them out and soaking them in alcohol does help. Keep your Carto/ carts filled and wet. I like the Extra large Ego Carto. I very seldom get any bad taste from these, unless they run out of juice. By the way some Dekang juice is very good. I also have several USA suppliers that I love. Try a few suppliers like FSUSA, Vapor Station, Ave, Tasty Vapor, Ms T's to name a few. Remember keep your gear, atty's, clean and use good Carto's and Atty/ carts. This should help cut down on crap taste.

Have you tried these juices on several different atomizers? I had a horrible tasting atty that refused to lose it's burned, rancid taste after I vaped it too dry one time. Every juice I tried in it tasted horrible! Like burning rubber tires smell.

I had to de-wick it to make it usable again. The white threads were burned black in one spot and I think that's what was causing the horrible taste and smell. But I had to use that atty for dripping only afterwards. No more carts or cartomizers for that one.
