Mixing Flavors?

[SaltyDawg]

Newbie question... In between juices do you have to clean the tank or can you just burn it all out and put a new flavor in?

I usually just get the eliquid down as far as I can and then add the new eliquid.

I normally do unless I'm going to a similar flavor (like from one melon to another melon).

Some flavors can really hang on, some will be noticeable for a while if you just refill with the new flavor.

Like they said, you can go either way

There's no harm in topping up with a different flavor than you were using before. The only real downside is if the flavors don't taste good together . . . only way to find that out is to try it, though ;-)

You may even inadvertently stumble across something really tasty.
Or not.

Thanks guys! I am using a delicious "salted caramel gelato" now, which I love... But I want to try more. I know to clean the tank, everclear is recommended... But that's not exactly something I have laying around (I mean I love to drink, but wine is my libation of choice). Looking forward to trying lots of new flavors... That's how I think I can kick the cigs, by keeping it interesting.

^^-- if you had something really bad in it, you might need to clean it that good. I do sometimes dump out the last little bit if dark and sludgy. Water can be used to wash it out to get the last bit of sludge that doesn't want to ever come out. Takes a while to dry. That's the tank, not the coil. Coil assemblies should be cleaned thoroughly or not at all, anything in between just causes trouble.

I often (more and more often) use unflavored in between flavors. I have found out I love these subtle overtones of flavor remnants (or backgrounds, if you will) more satisfying than full flavors...

Personally I would clean the tank when switching flavors and not let it run dry. You'll burn the coil and ruin the carto.

I think it depends on what tanks you are using. I can dump, clean, dry, dry burn, and refill one of my iClear 16 or 30 tanks in less than 10 minutes. The downside is that these are plastic tanks, so if going between strong flavors it can be a little bit off, but not bad.

hmm, when seeing the thread title, thought it was about diy juice mixing, and was going to say something like, I use 8-12% of the primary or base flavor, and add other flavors at 2-5%, depending on the recipe and the accent am trying to create.

Frak, I generally dedicate a tank to one flavor, and try to keep a different flavor in all me tanks, but hey, some mixing can lead to some fine vape, others, not so much.

Vape long and Prosper.!!!!

I'm currently vaping the last drips out of some watermelon, blueberry and peppermint along with a top-up of pomegranate. Pretty good as far as I'm concerned, but after reading through the juice forums, it appears that I am VERY not picky. Maybe I'm still just enjoying how much better literally anything in the world is compared to smoke.

edit: I have no idea what that turned into a link, but I'm new here. I'm not trying to link to anything.
