I've been experimenting with a lot of new tanks lately, and one thing they all seem to have in common- all of them give me a mouth full of juice eventually. I can almost set a watch to the time it'll happen with some of them. It seems inevitable and just a matter of time before they spit up some extra juice.

It didn't used to be this way. I'm wondering if the use of 100% cotton might be the reason?

This just doesn't seem acceptable to me. I wonder if people are getting used to it, and not even blinking when it happens. This can't be good for us to be even slightly consuming juice. It's not a ton, but any seems like too much.

Anyone noticing this, and know of any good fix? It doesn't seem to be any specific tank, just generally on all these new coils.
Well just so you don't think youi're alone, I've had a number of tanks spit back on occasion. Folks that have never had a tank spit, well they must be just perfect in everything they do, lol. Or faulty memories :D

I use both cotton and rayon in my builds and have never in six years experienced spit back.

I use 70/30 16mg/mL contact and spaced coils.

I suspect high VG liquids spit back because of the higher boiling temp and surface tension.
Never? Never? lol. memory fades with age you know Boden, haha.

I guess I'm primarily thinking of the nicotine. And much in the way that you should always wash your hands after handling juice, I would guess that the liquid form would be...not good :) I'd love to be wrong though. Maybe it's not that big of a deal health wise, and more so annoying.

I thought the washing hands when handling nicotine was because of us DIYr's when handling 100mg/ml nic base if you get any on your skin, even though when handling 100mg base you should be wearing gloves. I don't see any reason for concern once it's diluted down to the levels some of us vape at.

Neither of mine do. I never close the AFC's when filling. Love those tanks.

Funny how everybody experiences things differently, on the same product.

Yeah for some reason my crown and herk will flood and spit if I don't close it off, but my Maganus, subtank mini, arctic,and other herakles dont. It is funny indeed!

its not spitting ... it called super condensing :) rapidly condensing vapor basically implodes with such a force it makes a popping sound and accelerates rapidly towards any opening of greater pressure... so basically you are getting alot of vapor in a tiny little packet... all that nummy goodness of vaping in a tiny little ball of flavor :)

I don't have juice spit at me, but I do notice after squonking around 5-7ml through the sunbox graal, that juice will build up under the drip tip (mainly from over-squonking) and get in your mouth from a normal to hard pull.

Ya I found that it makes a lot of condensation I found that buy sucking for a bit after the firing button off fixed this i use this tank and a 13h9h RDA and when I use the tank I vape 3 tanks a day out of it and don't get any juice in the mouth but I also clean the excess juice off from filling with a paper towel

It may be due to hot weather. We are having the hottest weather right now that we've had all summer, and that will thin the juice. People have been telling me their Reos are self squonking when they're driving :)

You might also try washing your drip tips more and wiping out the attys where the drip tip sits at the top of the chimney. May be getting more condensation than usual with the heat. I went out yesterday and had a small drop of juice ooze out right below the drip tip because of the heat thinning my juice.
