Is anyone else like me? Do you not taste anything on the inhale and only on the exhale?

I ONLY taste flavor on the exhale I'm not sure what other techniques there are to taste on the inhale. Am I crazy?

Nope.. You're fine clodo..Just a lung hitter that needs to perfect the air flow from around the tip style of lung hits...If you're using Chuff Caps that's going to be quite a task.

Thanks, that was a Siriusly good tip ^_^

IT depends on your style, Tootle Puffing is usually a narrow tip pointed right at the tongue (lots of flavor), whereas cloud chasing goes straight down the throat bypassing taste buds altogether until it comes back up.

What mod and coil are you using?

I taste my vape on both inhale and exhale, but there is more flavor on the exhale. IMO that's because my nose gets more involved on the exhale.

One thing I've found helps is to take a small initial puff and exhale that through your nose and then go for the main drag. It doesn't matter if you pull into your mouth first and then inhale or just lung inhale, there's more flavor either way for me.

Depends on the atty and to an extent the juice used.

I taste mostly on the exhale too. Smaller hits at higher wattages gives me an "envelope" effect as I'm completely surrounded by vapor. I like my diy custard so much that I fog myself.

I taste just about nothing until I take the tip out of my mouth and inhale air. I sometimes have a hard time telling my mod is working, but I do need to change a few coils (I just want to finish those older bottles I don't like as much anymore). Some liquids I taste less on the exhale, while others I taste about the same.

maybe try a few different type of liquid. the strongest I had was a Red bull concoction, breathing in and out was really ommp! strong cooling feeling and excellent smell..

yeah, cause "taste" is mostly smell

Yup, smell is a big part of it

i used to only taste on exhale, but i noticed that if i inhale slower but just as long and deep i do taste more rather then taking really hard and fast hits

Need some nose in on the action as mentioned. Part of what we refer to as flavor truly is a mix of flavor, smell - and the more mystical intersection between these: aroma.

At least part of the "more flavor on the exhale" can be explained sort-of simply. Things don't generally work their way up your nose on their own. (With a handful of noteworthy exceptions, e.g bugs). Which makes most things fail the basic Nose Perception Test by walkover.

Take a breath through your mouth (free pass just this once) - notice how little your nose gets in on the action. THAT'S what's going on! No action: no satisfaction.
