Could you have a bad coil? I'm no expert but I'd try changing the coil or at least rewick it.
Hi T,
What is the resistance of your build?
How many watts are you using?
How old is the build?
What are you using as wick?
Which juice is giving you a problem?
Cheers

Okay so I just changed the coil and wick , I'm vaping Nana's sause it's prob 100vg and I'm used to run 0.3 dual coil ka1 at 45 watts and it always gave me a burned chemical taste , I switched to a single coil 0.6 ohm coil 24gauge ka1 and I soaked that cotton up till it couldn't take any more to the point of leaking, but at the first burn at 10 watts that chemical taste is there UGHH
I have owned many devices and have always had issues with flavors...the vape shop always puts in 100vg I get flavor shots and she says that Pg ain't necessary only for pods etc... I kinda like to.chain vape but I don't know what to do because my RDA tastes like metallic chemical taste, I have vaped the same flavor in a pod and like it a lot
Even when I just got the fire button it smells very weird nothing like the smell..
If u can post a pic would be nice....
I just wondered maybe u just don't like that juice if it's first time vaping it...
Usually if the cotton is out in properly and if u had clean hands when u touched the cotton u should be getting the flavour of ejuice...the fact that u may not like it it's another story tho...
Also u may washed your hands but didn't rinse them good and u taste the hand soap??
Just saying....
Other thing can be that this juice is oxidised or very long time and got bad...
The fact that it smells good before u vape it doesn't matter....
I would try rewick I guess and pulse he could a bit before I put the fresh cotton

Just a some random thoughts -
When you re-wicked it how tight is the wick? Ideally it should be a sliding fit IMHO.
Did you try "painting the wick" particularly at the coil slowly and re-doing it a couple of times before you fired up?
How old is the cotton and has it been in contact with anything before you used it?
Have you tried washing the drip tip end?
I personally disagree with the shop about PG being "unnecessary apart from in pods" and feel it might be worth trying a mix with 30% PG 70% VG - I feel it brings balance to the mix.
Good luck whatever and I hope you get a solution that works for you.

Thanks you very much , cotton is tight but not that it would warp the coil , it's prob the juice... thanks for your time!
