Menthol mouth from non-menth juice?

[Jbugz]

I'm wondering if anyone else is/has experienced this. For the last week or so, I've noticed that my mouth pretty much always has that "just brushed my teeth" feeling. At first it was cool, but I'm really sick of it now and it's also interfering with my ability to taste any of my flavors. It's even there when I first wake up in the morning and I obviously haven't vaped during sleep. Anyone else experiencing this menthol feeling with non-menthol juice?

FYI-I'm mixing my own juice using Humco VG and the other ingredients would be choco-mint or blackberry juice from Vermont Vapor and pralines & cream or blackberry flavor from loranns.

The choco mint, of course, would have mint in it and mint taste is something very hard to get out of an atty. I know some on here reserve a certain atty just for when they are using mint flavors. I would soak it in some alcohol for a few minutes, rinse, boil for about 5, rinse again, pop in a 150 or so degree oven, let sit for an hour or so, prim it by dripping 2-3 drops straight on the atomizer, then try again. Sometimes you have to take a few drags on it before it starts vaping and then starts vaping good, but it should help. That's just what I would try myself. Others will have other answers, probably much better to help you.

oh my gosh. I feel so stupid. I wasn't even thinking about the mint part of "choco-mint". I've had this flavor for 2-3 weeks and honestly could not taste the mint part of it even from the beginning, so I guess I just mentally blocked it. I'm going to lay off it for a while and get this feeling out of my mouth.

sheesh....Thanks so much..... *walks away embarrassed*

No reason to feel embarrassed about any of it! ALL of us have done one thing or another. Some, like me , more often than not! Happy vaping!

I second the notion of having a spare minty atty. To much of a pain to clean them all the time when you like to switch similar flavors. I have one for minty types, one for tobacco flavors, and one for fruity flavors. They are only like $8.
