Loss of flavor with excessive vaping?

[karma2burn]

I've noticed that as I've been vaping throughout the day that I have a very hard time tasting the flavors after a while. If stop for a while and go back to it I can taste it again but it will diminish if I keep vaping. Anyone else experience this?

I also notice that I get kind of an irritated throat thing going on as well. It's not major and certainly doesn't hurt. Just slightly annoying. Is that due to the nic levels or just the pg? I'm using 24 mg juice so I wonder if that would diminish a bit if I dropped down to a lower level.

1. I try to switch up flavors every few hours and it seems to keep the flavor better that way. I think its just a getting immune from overuse thing after a while.

2. After about two weeks my mouth and throat felt like it was on fire anytime i smoked or vaped. This lasted about 5 days and now that ive gotten past that worst part have not had a single problem since.

1) Good idea. I'll try to mix it up more

2) Good to know. I'm gonna man up and push through it.

Yep! Same with analogs for me, when I smoked, the first cig or first few cigs tasted good, but tasted like blah after that, I've noticed the same thing with vaping. I've tried switching flavors more often. Pretty soon, they all taste the same to me, if I don't put it down and come back to it.

I found I enjoy more if I lay it down and come back to it, reminding myself, I wasn't enjoying cigs, that's part of the reason I quit, and the goal from me, is to keep my experience as far away from cigarettes as possible, so I never turn to an analog. EVER!

I just want my reason for turning to my pv to be for enjoyment of flavor, for pleasure, to celebrate, and not vaping for any of the same reasons I did analogs. Just enjoying being free from control of cigs, and celebrating life, enjoying all the new smells, new flavors, taste of food, having stronger lungs, and feeling good for the first time in 31 years.

Analogs kept me from doing alot of things over the years, vaping gives so much more freedom to life! I don't want it to become chained to me. NOTHING! is that important! Nothing should be given that much control!

Flavors of Life, is BEEEAUTIFUL!!!!

When I really lose flavor I find if I brush my teeth and tongue and get the PG coating out of my mouth the flavor comes back big time.

Dentists everywhere should rejoice, I'm now brushing more than 2x per day just for this reason.

Same for me. I switch thruout the day from dunhill, hilton, marb and kent.
I don't mind the mix of them so I don't change carts/attys as I go.
Seems to keep them all 'fresh' over the long haul.

Another health benefit of the E-Cigs! I find the same effect from brushing also, so I do it more often on a regular basis now. SB

I'll have to try the tooth/tongue brushing technique. I find that I lose my taste after about an hour of vaping. Since I use the USB I don't have the dead battery issue to keep up with how much I am vaping and sometimes (daily) I get carried away. When that happens I start to notice that I don't taste the juice anymore.

Well if you smoked lights or extra-lights, then you might feel the same as me. Never thought about it before--my Pall Malls were basically flavorless. Camels, etc. don't apply.

i heard somewhere(dunno where) that taste buds starts to close after excessive tasting. that may be the reason.
