Little leakage on inhale in emini

[Jamie.leigh23]

Hi there

I have an emini, for about 3 weeks now. Just today when I took it out of its case and put it in my mouth I got the nasty juice taste, looked and there was juice kind of beaded up on the tip. Cleaned it off, inhaled on it, looked at it, more juice drops. Wipe, inhale, look, repeat. This hasn't happened before and I'm a total newbie. Does it mean I need to change a part or something? Thanks for any thoughts.

Most likely, it's ejuice condensation that collects in the mouthpiece. That can be disassembled and cleaned. I just take mine apart and rinse with very hot water and shake to dry.

Otherwise, it could be that your atty is gummed up, causing you to draw harder, which sucks liquid out through the mouthpiece. In this case clean the atty.

I had a particular eRoll tank that was "sweaty", always got a taste of juice and a gurgling sound ...

I suspect it had a void somewhere in the plastic casting, maybe too small to be visible. I tossed that tank, they're not that expensive, never had it happen since ...

A similar thing happened with just one eCab tank. Tossed that one too ...

Juice in the mouth usually comes from needing to replace the gasket (part with the hole that goes on the atty spike.) When the hole is too big, juice gets into the air channels on either side of the juice receptacle. That's one way it happens. Before replacing the gasket, if that's the way you decide to go, make sure you remove the cap (part that goes in your mouth) and blow out those two air channels. Anytime liquid of any kind, juice or condensation, get in your mouth, the liquid has gotten into the air channels. So, the other ways it can happen is your gasket is fine but wasn't tightened down hard enough or positioned properly to cover those channels.

If Jamie is using Ovale tanks, the cap can't be replaced or removed. Kind of a feature and a bug in one.

I never remove the caps anymore - I find it easy enough to rinse them with the cap in place.
