I can't get no satisfaction.......

[Cowboy192]

Anyone else have days where you just can't a good vape?
I've got good kit, good juice and for the last few days it's been rather meh,
cant taste much (again) tried new coils, swapping flavours, my mvp's wattage been up and down more often than a hookers knickers, I just can't seem to find a sweet spot at the moment,

but.....

on a positive note I realised that despite the issues, I'm not craving a smoke, I'm craving a better vape!

 

[Fattlestar]

Occasionally I hit a day where I can't find the right vape myself, but like you, I just crave a "better vape" not a smoke. Usually I drink gallons of coffee to try and clear my tastebuds when that happens, in hopes of getting some good flavor again.

It's good that you're not tempted to go back to smoking Cowboy! Sounds like you're in that blah period, the doldrums of vaping. It happened to me about 2 months in.
I didn't really 'do' anything to get past it. Kept drinking lots of water, put a little more hotsauce on my food, took a nice hike when I could, and kept a positive mental attitude about the whole thing. A week later things were back to that happy vaping state. Your body and brain are missing the cigarettes, and hoping that you'll cave in. You'll get past it. Best of luck to you.

How long have you been using the same juice?

 

[fumanchu]

I think it's pretty normal to go on and off juices. Your taste buds tune out after a while. I've had umpteen different favourites at various different times.
Try going back through the juice in your stash that you didn't get on with the first time round. As weird as it might sound, that often works for me. You either end up rediscovering something is actually pretty nice or, at the very least, realising how marvellous your regular vape is

How long have you been using the same juice?

I don't have a regular other than my chefsvapour ry4, I chop and change constantly, I normally have 4 nautilus's and two or three et-s's set up and swap back and forth between them all
At the moment I have
Chefsvapour jungle juice,
Chefs vapour ry4
Nicoticket virus
Nicoticket gcd
Chefs vapour fluffy nuts
Bryces vanilla custard,
Plus a load of others for dripping, so it's not from puffing just one flavour, I drink plenty of water, fruit juice, coffee during the day, just seems to be a bit of a meh patch

Do you have vape tongue? It still happens to me sometimes, and I can't taste any of my e liquids. Not much to do, but vape for the nic until it passes.

 

[InTheShade]

Yes, it happens to me every few months or so. I usually get out all the liquids I don't particularly like at this time, add a couple of drops of extreme ice and vape through it. I'm not wasting my good stuff if I can't taste it.

You already said you are drinking lots of water and stuff, so just vape through it. Like you said, you're not jonesing for a smoke, so it's all good.

Guess everyone has to find their own way out of that brier patch. Mine is to vape unflavored with less power for a while.

 

[Frenchfry1942]

Glad that you don't have the urge.

 

[Cowboy192]

Guess everyone has to find their own way out of that brier patch. Mine is to vape unflavored with less power for a while.

I'll be mixing myself at least 30ml of unflavoured on Christmas Day (I'm getting a large amount of diy kit for Crimbo) so that I can vape on something to give me a break from flavours all together

 

[EBates]

I find that when my ADVs start tastin' off that a strong mint flavor for about a tank full or so gets me back on track. I keep some Spearmint or Altoid flavor around for those days.

 

[BrushyHillGuide]

I used to have days like that. Once I got into rebuildables it changed to 'days where my vape is not as satisfying as usual.' On those days, though, I can grab a great dripper like my Hobo or my Plune Veil, with a .15-.3 ohm Gplat build and chuck some giant flavorful clouds and WHAM! I'm back on track. I keep a pretty wide selection of flavors JUST for those occasions.

I look at it the same way I look at my favorite burger, a hawaiin burger from Sammy's. Grilled pineaple and ham on a burger with swiss and teriyaki sauce/mayo.

1 is delicious.. 2 is unbutton the jeans and order another beer. 3 is overkill 4 is heart palpitations... 5 is an induced coma 6 is on the stretcher to the hospital...

It is too much of a good thing and then it wears on ya. At least that is what I have figured for myself.

I'll stick with unflavored.

 

[VHRB2014]

I just had a few days that were meh too? It was`nt full blown vape tongue, but it was something close. It subsided, I just had to get through it. Try not to get too frustrated, ask me how I know, LOL.

It did motivate me to build a .2 ohm RDA and now I`m hooked on the super sub ohm thing, :?)

Give it to me HOT baby!

 

[sgilners]

ive had this just today, cant get enough. lung hits, mouth to lung, mouth and nose, nothing is working. but hopefully itll pass soon

 

[trouble1000]

Normally when I get an odd day like that, I end up buying something new

I think sometimes, it's all in the mind for me though. I'm still hunting for my "holy grail" vape even after all these months - obsessed me, never

 

[Spencer87]

time to graduate to lower res I think

 

[Rat2chat2]

Have you considered vaping some unflavored nic juice. It really does cleanse the palate. Wouldn't hurt to try it. I switch flavors through out the day and most of the night.

The only other thing I can think of to suggest is to add a drop of Everclear or flavored Vodka to a tank full of the juice you are using. I mix my menthol with 50/50 Everclear and menthol crystals and add a drop to my 6ml bottle and it gives it a little umpf. Good luck to you and post what seems to help you because it could help others.
