The coil lasts...pretty long. When I change flavors, I re-wick. Since I have 5-6 tanks running, I run 30ml (bottle) before really looking at it.
How often do you Maintenance a Kayfun?

Silica, ekowool and similar can withstand the heat of dry burning, so may last a really long time even with that going on.
I use rayon. It, cotton and other "natural" materials will burn away if dry burning the coil, so if you're going to dry burn they have to come out first. Or they'll come out in two
Some flavors will gunk the coil in just a few mls, some won't. When crud starts to build up, the vapor quality will diminish. You may find yourself upping the power to compensate. Then it's time to clean and dry burn to revive the coil itself.

I replace my coil once every 2 months. On a 100 ft spool of 28ga kanthal, I have years of coils to build. Of course trying to build fancy coils and dual coils takes up more kanthal due to failure. I always end up resorting back to the trusty single coil micro build ohmed to 1.1.
I rewick once a week. Learning how to wick correctly is key, and ensuring it stays wet, to extending wick life. A big bag of japenese cotton will last me years.
Watch videos, but the biggest way I learned was trial and error.

I have a big bag of rayon collecting dust. It gave off a "tree burning" flavor and it is so gross. I now use japenese cotton exclusively. Love this stuff. It changed my entire vaping experience.

I dont use kayfun 3.1 exclusively... That means that i have several more atomizer which i use daily. I like to rotate between them, because of different juices inside. I vape about 4 ml per day, some of you vape even less and some much more, up to 10ml and more. I am doing great with that amount of liquid and 7mg nicotine in it.
Orchid is dual coil so it vaporizes more juice. I have also aqua and yeah i can empty it pretty quick
You're probably right. I guess I was so used to wicking with organic cotton that I couldn't quite master wicking with Rayon.
I to have a big box of rayon i will never use again I use the cotton you linked it is so clean tasting and so easy to work with, I found my wicking material

While cotton expands a bit when wet, rayon shrinks / compresses, so you need to start out a bit snugger than you think you need, if coming from cotton.
Typically I'll re-wick my 4 kayfuns every weekend and generally I re-coil at least once every couple of weeks to every month. Not that I need to, but I've only been at this a few months and there's still a lot of little variations to try and too keep my coil building technique strong.
I'm pretty much at the point where it almost takes less effort to build a pristine coil than it does to fiddle around, dry burning and scraping off the crud. With all the coil building stuff I have at my desk, torches, ceramic tweezers and considering that a coil costs around 3 cents, I'd sooner build one than clean one.

I would looove to have the taste buds of everyone that doesn't have to re- wick after every tank.Maybe I vape wrong but if i do not clean the coils and change the wick after a tank full of juice it tastes of.
That probably has more to do with your juice than the coil and wick.
Just build the coil and rewick the orchid... At 2.5mm coil, it seems too big for orchid.. Rather cautious if the coil will touch the chimney... Steam engine says 28 awg 11 wrap at 2.5mm will give me 1 ohm but I am getting 0.6 ohm...
