Liquid went wrong and ugly over night

[dandellion]

Recently I mixed some juice (50VG/30PG, almond, 12.5mg nic) and it was fine for two days or so. Then, one evening I put the battery on charger and in the morning I refilled the cart... and juice was completely different! It had some metallic/alcohol ugly aftertaste. Same juice, same cart, same everything. The other juices I made from those bases are still fine.

How is it possible that juice changes overnight? Or better... what have I done wrong? Any ideas?

Cart, as in cartomizer? Or cartridge?

If you're using a cartomizer, is it possible that you've burned the filler? Which leads to the next question, what device are you using and what resistance is your atty/carto.

Or contaminated that batch somehow...who knows!

50VG/30PG is only 80% so did you put 20% flavor? That maybe your problem too much flavor can give a chemical taste or no taste at all. Juices blend together over time which maybe why it happened today.

Such a drastic change in flavor leads me to believe that the juice isn't the issue, though, I could be wrong.

If it was because of an over-flavoring, I think the taste would gradually start to decline, rather than just happen overnight, right?

Edit: I noticed that the OP mentioned it had been a couple of days since the last sampling. So, perhaps this could be the case? A case of steeping gone wrong.

Bitter Almond? or sweet almond? Bitter almond (like amaretto) is very strong and it's probably over flavored because of it. A little goes a long way with this flavoring. It steeped and it's true personality came out as it blended and began to mature.

I was wondering what the other 20% was as well

Was this issue ever resolved? Rather, was the problem found?

Noobie forum mistake on my side The gear is CE4 I'm not sure about resistance.

With a week more of experience, here's some more insight.... it happens every time after recharging the batt, so I'd assume that battery pushes the voltage and burns the juice inside. Funny thing is that if I leave "contaminated" clearomizer aside and put it back after a day, when the battery get back on the proper voltage, the juice that tasted bad is now OK again.

Problem solved!

The clearomizers were dirty. Washing and dry-burning them solved the problem.
