I've been vaping the same juice for a couple days now and want to switch flavors. My question is the coil is still good is there a way to store it? Do you clean it? Or is it just trash? It is an Atlantis aspire coil. The flavor im using is unicorn milk and im switching to a red bull flavor so I can't mix them.
How to store used coils?

I would rinse them in warm/hot water, let them dry for a day or two then put them in a film container or ziplock bag.
As a diabetic I use the vials that my test strips come in but any small vial or jar will work. I put them in isopropyl alcohol to soak. Then when I need a new one I just pull it out let it dry for a few minutes blow through it and install it will taste like a new wick. I have some coils that are going on three months old and work and taste great
You can clean them and replace the wick if you want. Just one of the vids on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6ZBh4X8wQo
After I rinse them and store them will I be able to use with any flavor or will they still taste like the previous flavor I used then with?
If your going to use a different flavor It'd be best to remove the wick, rinse it out, do a dry burn on the coil, and then rewick with cotton.
Depends on the previous flavor. Some flavors really stick around. Bad offenders include anything with licorice or anise. Stronger flavors just tend to want to move in permanently.
Best way to clean them is letting them soak in vodka (or any other cheap white alcool) for a night or so and then rinse them and let them dry out. Works marvel on Atlantis coils.
The little 2" square ziplock bags are great if you'll be using the same juice again. Just make a note on the baggie.
Thanks yall. I just didn't know what to do and didn't wanna trash it when it is still good. Like I said before I'm pretty new to the vape world so I'm sure I'll have a million more questions
I soak them in vodka for a while, then let them dry on a paper towel - the vodka evaporates and doesn't leave a taste or film, plus it seems to remove a fair amount of gunk. I swear it seems like the wicks work better after doing this.
I have prescription bottles (thoroughly rinsed first) tp store them in -- makes it easy to label with flavor or whatever, because some flavors do just stick no matter what you do.
I don't know about your water, but I wouldn't use tap water without a vodka flush afterward -- I worry about the minerals and chlorine. Distilled water would be ok.
