Juices all tasting the same

[dzlady]

I quit smoking back in March 2011 and the last month, at least, all my juices are tasting the same, bland and yucky. I have tried everything I can think of from cleaning to changing to juices that I normally wouldnt vape. I've tried tangerine, peppermint and others. The attys are have been cleaned by vodka, water, baking soda and vinegar and any other things I had read about. The last week or so, I have started smoking again. I hate that I have went back to smoking and want to vape. I dont know what to do. Does anyone have any ideas?

This happens to me sometimes as well but switching attys and juices usually works :/
Where are you storing your juice? maybe somewhere too hot?
Don't give up dude,sucks you had to resort back to smoking ciggs again.

Not to freak you out, but I've heard a few people say this has happened to them and some of them associated it with getting a cold. The consensus seems to be that it last a few days to a few weeks and so you should just try to vape through it.

I had a few days last week where I couldn't taste any of my juices. I just figured it still tastes better than a cigarette. This week I can taste them just fine.

I heard someone mention that using limes or lemons to kind of clean the palate seemed to help.

The human body is an odd thing, hard to say what's going on, but it'll change again. Just be patient.

there are times I still lose my taste. when it happens I make sure I drink lots of water (I get lazy about it sometimes) and I vape unflavored . I don't want to waste good expensive liquids when I can't taste anything, unflavored is very economical and if I use 50/50 pg/vg I get lots of vapor which helps satisfy me

I have been vaping thru it forever it seems. I have a lot of juices and have thought about selling most of them and keeping my PV and a few that were my favs so if my tastes come back. I still vape too, and though I can taste them more, they still almost all taste the same. My all time fave was/is german chocolate cake from tasty vapor. I vape on it some, but feel really guilty smoking instead. I had hubby bring me home a pack a smokes. This always happens, no matter how I quit, cold turkey, weaning off or with the PV. And I was doing so good until I hit this wall. I NEVER thought I would be smoking again. I loved vaping.

You were talking about atomizers so I don't know if you use cartomizers, but I would maybe try them. Sometimes I noticed if I'm using the same atomizer with a few different juices and going back and forth, my taste buds get confused and they start to all taste the same. I use "Ressurector" cartomizer and they are awesome. I designate one carto for each juice I use and never put a different juice in the carto. I found that doing that really helped with tasting and distinguishing different juices

I have noticed this happen to me a bit as well.

I found mine tasting awful last week, turned out that since we are trying to dry out the office that the dehumidifiers are playing havac with my juice but while not ideal I just drink extra water and ensure my carto is well topped up. I also only use one carto to one flavour and don't mix them up.

How old is your juice? Not all juice gets mixed equally well, especially china juice. Steeping can really help a mix but it can also take a bad mix from 'not too bad' to 'dang, I can't vape this stuff'. It happened to me once when I bought a bunch of juice on sale. At first I though it was just me, because I'd been through the changing taste buds before, but then I got some new juice in that tasted great which let me know that it wasn't me, it was the juice. I wound up tossing it.

Like a lot of others, I've been through the cross wired taste buds a couple of times, and that could be what you're going through, but if all of your juice is from the same shipment, it might be worth while to order some new.

Whatever it is, here's hoping you get squared away and back to some happy vaping.

I would check out BlueMist Vapor. All their juices are made fresh so you dont have to worry about a juice sitting on a shelf for months before its sent to you. They have a HUGE selection, 250+ premade juices and 250+ flavors for DIY. Their prices are really good too. $5 for 10ml, $10 for 30ml. They also have sample packs so you can try a bunch of different juices without spending a lot of money. And you can get extra flavor shots for .50cents more.
Also, if you do find a juice you really like from them you can get a 180ml bottle for $30 bucks. Your not gonna find a better deal than that. Breaks down to $5 for 30ml.
I just ordered a 180ml bottle of Cafe Caramel bc it is so good. If you like coffee type flavors I would try it. It has a creamy caramel taste and is very good

It sounds like you cleaned your atomizer, but didn't try a new one. I have no idea if an atomizer could cause this, but I'd sure want to try a fresh atomizer and/or cartomizer before I just gave up and went back to smoking.

Good luck.

My juices are at least 3 months old. I have blue mist, KBV, TV and a few others that I got in trades. I have tried a new atty and everything the same. I have one carto and the flavor was awesome in it the last time I used it. Maybe I need to grab it again and see how it tastes now. And if that works, maybe I just need to get some cartos. I hate that I have went back to smoking. I hate the taste, the smell and having a dirty ashtray sitting around, again! Gonna grab that carto and give it a try.

Decided to sell most of my supplies. I will be keeping a few things and try to get back to vaping, but for now, I cant see it all sitting, just going to waste.

Dont be to quick to go back to analogs.
I to have ran in to the lack of taste of vapeing. It seems to come and go.

What I do is to remember what the analogs I smoked daily for over 30 years tasted like.
They all tasted nasty. We will put up with a lot nasty to get are nic.

Even a bland bla vape taste better than a analog.
Just try not to get to fixated on the taste, I know it can be hard. Just keep in mind how bad analogs really taste.
And keep on vapeing. Just my

try vaping some unflavored juice! I love it and it never tastes yucky to me. I do love flavors too but if I had to choose between unflavored and going back to smoking, I'd go with unflavored every time! It can't hurt to try.
