I have experienced this with some of my juices. What seems to happen is that they will actually change to a very sweet flavor. Some of my juices from other companies have done this. But mind u, this is after some time, like 6 months or so. I do have juices that are a yr and and they taste just as good as the day I bought them, so I'm not sure y this happens.

The only thing I can speculate is that it does only seem to happen to juices that r heavy in VG. In my case, it seems that my PG heavy juices flavor does not change over time. But I have no clue if PG/VG has any bearing what so ever on this or not.

hi keek, i use shortcake almost exclusively but have many other flavors that get neglected but pulled out from time to time. to me, the longer they sit in my juice box the better they get. i will say with my shortcake that if i vape my 357 alot the flavor mutes a bit til i blow the atty out then it pops again big time. i try to do 2 blowouts per day to keep things fresh. cartos are a different story for me, i hardly use them as i can taste the batting in them, i get the juice taste but still its not as pure to me as a good atty thats kept clean.

This mainly happens when you vape the same flavor all the time. Has nothing to do with the VG/PG ration. Your taste buds are just getting used to the flavor. Just remember to switch flavors often and that will take care of the issue you are having.

Hmm...that would make sense. Thanks Ms T :)

Hi keekers. I have been vaping Ms Ts juices for about 7 months now and never had flavor loss. If anything they get MORE flavorful as they age. But as batteries age they get less powerful and don't throw out the strength and flavor they once were able to. What equipment do you use?
I use a REO and a Buzz Pro. I make sure to keep rotating the batteries in the REO and the Buzz Pro is VV so it holds it's charge. I think I'm not changing the flavors enough.

Hi :)
Well that's strange! If you use the SS all the time and it doesn't lose it's flavor I wonder what's going on with mine. :confused:

keek, try blowing out your atty then put it back on your reo and give a good squonk and see if this helps out on flavor.

Yeah, switching up is definitely key. I think this is one of the several reasons why I pretty much just direct drip. I usually switch flavors at least twice a day. Another reason goes along with what Sooner said: other methods including cartos just seem to mute and reduce flavor on their own compared to dripping into a regular old 510. My atomizers usually last me a pretty long time. Sometimes a few months! Here is one thing I noticed just yesterday though. I had an atty I have been using for about a month and everything seemed fine. I felt like my Ms T's Pineapple e-juice was losing a little flavor though. Well that atty abruptly died for no apparent reason and forced me to grab a brand new one out of my stash. Whoa! It was like someone turned the flavor faucet back on! Apparently even though our hardware may appear to be working properly, as it gets older it's quality is reduced. Since the performance drops off slowly, we may not recognize it as it happens, but after awhile flavor and vapor reduction do drop off.

I guess the point is that it really doesn't seem like the juice is changing for the worse over time, but the hardware does. Kinda like how as the spark plugs age in your car, you tend to lose a little power even though the gas you are using is still the very same.
