No, it actually looks very similar but much tougher ..I had a couple of little round disks in my toolbox that I am sure my memory is right in saying that they were particle filters that were used in some of the pneumatic controls on some of my machines when I was in engineering, and I had chucked them in my toolbox when I was taking a machine apart.
Might be worth a try with the polyester matting but it is likely to get soggy?
Also, we need to know if the black bits can appear anytime or are a result of The Burn (in which case a rinse after would be an advisable protocol).
Hi kinaba...The mesh I have put in does get wet and I have been having to rinse out the mouthpiece and dry it out a couple of times a day. I had actually put the mesh in before I started doing the dry burns and if anything the burning seems to have considerably reduced the amount of bits that I am now trapping in the mesh. Even if it's nothing to worry about, I do think it would be better if the manufacturers made mouthpieces that had some kind of particle filter in them, just to be sure. Perhaps you and exo should find something to use and see if you trap any particles as well?

Pete--what is this Ecopure you are refering to? We would like to know--thanks--Sun
Hi sun the Ecopure is the juice that Intelicig uk are making here in the uk. It has far less ingredients than most juices so it could possibly produce less gunk in theory. I would post a link but I still haven't got the hang of doing that.
Pete--is that what they advertise? You just type out the link and it will appear when you post. I thought e-liquids all just had PG or VG and Nic and Flavor--what is in the Ecopure?--Thanks--Sun

Pete, how big are these black bits, I mean if you got one in your
mouth would you be able to tell (crunch!) ?

Exo--looks like they are just using VG instead so what is the big deal?--Sun
It's just their thing that it's a 'minimal ingredients' liquid, hence the 'pure'
(I think), not tried it myself.

Hi exo....the bits I have been getting are very, very tiny little 'flakes' with almost no 'thickness' and I doubt if you would be able to feel it at all if you had a bit in your mouth.
Oh yes, seen this report before:

Look at the second to last page, how the analysis of the smoked juice is described: "No clear peaks were recorded at all, but inference of spectra suggests the presence of nicotine and glycerol".

Definately going to put some wick-mesh in my mouthpieces now,
amazing that no-one (except you) has noticed this before.
Perhaps your eyesight is better than most ?
edit: yes Kin. that was the phrase that mildly put me off VG.

What flavor of this misnamed stuff did you get Pete? At least the burn-off is keeping your atty going.
Will try an air filter this evening ...
Exo - more to the point, how did EcoPure miss it?!

Lol I have to use a magnifying glass ....my eyesight is suffering from age. I will be interested to see if you do find any tiny bits, If I do then in theory you should as well.
Oh and it's now day 16 and my atty is still working like new!....I have changed to using some of the TW 36..unflavoured. So if the juice makes any difference I will soon find out. With the eco'pure' I was using both the rich tobacco and the unflavoured.

Day 17 is here...I noticed that it took slightly longer than usual for the coil to reach a nice red glow this morning, (perhaps that does indicate a quicker build up of gunk with the different juice?) but other than that my atty is still working as good as new using this dry burn method of cleaning.

Which type of TW Pete - PG or VG ?
Morning Kinaba.....I didn't know there was any choice with TW ..everything I have purchased from them has been a mix of mainly PG and some VG. What I am using now is their UN flavoured 36mg...which strangely still has a suprisingly long list of chemicals in it (why so many for unflavoured?) ....... but it says it's 65% PG and 20% VG.
It's very interesting that you could notice a difference in deposit level.
I guess there's a preservative in there (antioxidant) but what are the rest, given that this is unflavored?
