I can't taste my juice...

[w1ngz]

It's been about 5 days now. I eluded to this in another post on a different subject, and someone said that it could take a few days to really be able to taste the apple flavour in my juice.

I've been vaping since wednesday morning, and after trying a foam mod I'm getting nice full vapor and a decent throat hit almost every time out of my 401, until the cart goes dry. On a really good hit I can get so much vapor that if I puff it out in front of my face, I can't see the TV at all for a second.

With all that vapor, shouldn't there be a distinct taste? It's really, REALLY subtle, and I can taste a very slight apple flavour if I put the tip of my tongue right up near the mouthpiece as I inhale slowly. I won't know for myself until Monday, when I get a sample pack in that I ordered, but I've ordered from the same place I bought my hardware and my current bottle of juice...

Is the flavouring supposed to be this subtle, or did I get bad juice?

A lot of people report an occasional bout with an I-can't-taste-my-vape phenomena, which sometimes lasts weeks. That may or may not be what's happening to you, but apple--in any case--isn't a very strong flavor. You might try switching temporarily to a potent menthol or cinnamon type, if just to wake your mouth up.

Sometimes you need to let the juice age a bit to get the best flavor out of it, however sometimes some juice is just very weak. I bought some juice from freedomsokeusa got it about 2 weeks ago, still very week, probably going to end up adding my own flavoring to it. Some places the juice is great as soon as it comes. My suggestion is order a bunch of small samples from several vendors, same flavor from 2 different vendors can very likely taste different.

I'm just heading into week 3 now - can't taste anything except pumpkin spice and peppermint - and then REALLY can't taste CRAP else for days and my atty reeks and tastes like them too - not a happy camper and am literally thinking of going to just plain and save myself the frustrations - and besides that I don't think my mg level is high enough I was jone-sing purdy bad last night...didn't mean to hijack sorry...

Are u drinking enough water? You have to overdo your water intake because the pg / vg will dry you out. You won't be able to taste the flavors, for a while.
Just yesterday, on the forum someone was having the same problem and he claimed that Biotene gum / spray helped him alot. I think he said you can pick it up @ Walgreens, in the toothpaste / mouthwash aisle. Hope this helps.

Don't apologize (everybody's here for everybody), and don't be shy about boosting your nic level. Look, if California can legalize you-know-what for medicinal purposes, you can certainly use whatever level of vaporized nicotine makes you comfortable--and prevents you from burning tobacco and ingesting the laundry list of carcinogens that are along for the ride.

Give it just a little time, dear.

Switch to a different flavor for awhile then go back to your Apple and see if it's better.

I had the same thing with a couple of very popular vendors here but all the flavors tasted exactly the same and very little taste and believe me I bought tons of different ones believing it was me. Then I found Tasty Vapor and OMG what my taste buds have been looking for. I intially tried Atomic Cinnaicidde and that was the ticket since then I am in love with Geoff's Blend, Tasty Finger, Waffles and the list goes on. That was my experience not looking back now. I was convinced it was me but once I found a juice with the flavor I was looking for I sold everything else.
