Kangertech S1...flavor problems.

[orangepeeljones]

I'm relatively new to vaping (about a month). I started with the disposables and would have stuck with them if they weren't so ridiculously expensive.

I ended up getting a Kangertech S1 ("square one") kit, and I like it a lot. The batteries last me all day on a charge, the 2ml tanks don't leak, and they're small enough to carry in my pocket comfortably.

I've been enjoying vaping with this setup until about 5 days ago, when I started noticing the flavor changing. I started getting a nasty burnt taste. I changed the clearo head and cleaned the tank, and got about 10 good hits until the burnt taste came back.
I switched to my other tank, which I hadn't used up to that point, and was good to go for about 3 days until it too started tasting burnt. I've kept the wicks soaked at all times.
Changed out the clearo in this one, let the juice soak in the wicks for about 20 minutes, and now instead of burnt taste, I just get this bland, harsh taste with almost no traces of the flavor of the juice.
What's going on here? Has the juice gone bad? Is that even possible? I've had it for a little over 2 weeks.

Is there any way to get that burnt taste out of my other one?

Thanks for the help!

First of all, forgive me if double-posting is frowned upon here. I won't do it again if so!

Just an update: I guess clearomizers have to "burn in"? I dunno. I've read so much but I'm still a bit confused.

At any rate, the flavor has started to come back, and I'm enjoying vaping again, rather than tolerating it to get my nicotine fix. I was starting to give up hope!

This makes me wonder if I was just doing something wrong. I tried to follow the instructions that the guy at the store gave me, but I'm starting to think he was just full of crap. The way he showed me to change clearomizers left me with liquid spilling into my mouth (and the battery) until I took everything apart and cleaned it and put it back the right way.

Thoughts?

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about these square clearomizers.

Regarding the taste that you lost yesterday, you may have experienced what some of us call "vapors tongue," where you lose your sense of taste. It happened to me a couple of times in the first months of vaping, but hasn't returned again (going on 15 months of vaping).

Hopefully some on can come along with some advice on those clearomizers.
