Hello again everyone. I am starting to get this whole vaping thing under control as far as problems, but there's one more thing.

I have this atomizer currently. https://vaporbank.com/shop/index.php?p=product&id=799

I keep getting a harsh nasty taste every few hits. I thought it was because I had been using a strong VG mixture, but recently switched to 100% and 80% 20% PG mixes. Even with the 100% it's still the same issue, although I get more flavor with the 100% PG. I am using an Ego-T Upgrade battery. I do smoke the thing constantly and even when I only hit it occasionally I still get the same nasty taste every few hits. This atomizer is re-buildable so I've tried putting on a new atomizer into it and letting it sit to absorb the liquid. Still the same thing. There has to be something that I'm doing wrong and not knowing what it is.:glare: Could it be the way i'm hitting it or something? I've tried short shallow drags and long deep ones, almost every combination I could think of.

Can anyone offer me some advice please? I've almost got vaping under control and almost completely switched from cigs. If I can get this one thing resolved I'll be golden. :)

have you tried keeping your device horizontal at all times? make sure juice is constantly getting to those 2 wicks.
that should help some. if its still giving you a burnt taste every few drags try shaking the juice up to the wicks occasionally.
it could also be that you are using a higher VG content juice than a higher PG content juice.

Try adding a little bottled water to your juice to water it down some if the above practices don't help.
Just a few drops from the faucet could help a bit.

I held the atomizer upside down and put a drop of liquid into the air hole in the center. I think that leads right to the coil because the next 10 or so hits were fine. But I shouldn't have to do that every time unless im using a drip type atomizer right? I know that the dry burnt nasty hit is because not enough liquid is on the coil. I even do a couple hard hits without activating the battery to try and prime the coil and wick sometimes.
