Mouthfuls of juice - what am I doing wrong?

[WVvet]

Hi ya'll.
Really could use some help here. It seems that no matter what I try I keep getting straight juice out of my cartomizers on my lips and pooling on the top of the carto.
I am almost three weeks into this and getting realllly tired of eating juice. What do you think I am doing wrong. My current set up is an EGO. I hated the ego cartos I ordered with the system (enclosed with the little hole on top - very hard to refill) and just today I got BOGE 2.0 cartos which everyone seems to recommend. Guess what? Same problem. I take a couple hits that are good then there's a pool of juice on top and on my mouth. So aggravating! I really hoped the BOGEs would be different. Now I think it must be my draw or something.
Any tips would be GREATLY appreciated.

Are you refilling them yourself?

ive been doing the condom method where u fill the lil rubber end caps halfway to three quarters full of juice letting it soak in well then removing it cleaning it up then i blow thru it to get any excess out of the middle tube that happened to me a few times also i just learned to blow thru it gently not hard 3- 4 times just to get any possible loose juice out before i can get a mouthfull of lemon ice hopefully this helps the main thing for me was ALWAYS blow thru em after filling

sounds like overfilling to me .but i've only been vaping for a month

It sounds like too much juice to me. I count the drops and put in about 30, and give it a good shake like you're shaking a thermometer. I also use a drip tip, less chance of juice in the mouth.

Same with me, I just did what he is talking about like 10 mins ago filling up a boge carto. i just blew through it a few times lightly and it stopped. Atomic fireball doesnt taste good on ur lips and toung lol.

Thanks for the tips so far. At another ECF suggestion I put about 25 drops in (about 10 at a time) then let the BOGE sit for 30 mins. Will try the shake method.
What about draw? Do you hit the button the hole time you draw? Or start it for a second then draw? I'm serious. Any help wanted.

Fill the carto then lightly blow in it into a tissue to clear the center.Then take long slow draws while your vaping.Dont drag it like a cig.Take long slow draws.

I hit the button right before I'm ready to take a draw and hold it down the whole time. Slow, light inhales. Maybe you're drawing a little too hard and that's what's causing the juice in your mouth.

It takes a little practice at first.

I have a buddy that like to power hoot on my pv. Happens to him often, rarely happens for me. So maybe it's a combo of overfilling and puffing too hard. Try and ease it up and see if that helps.

WVvet - I've had the exactly the same thing. It is horrible. I've only just started using the cartos. I have used cart n' attys till now. I like the cartos. But sheeeesh that taste. It only seems to be the first couple of draws then it settles down and gives me a good vape.
I think one of the earlier posters is right. You should give it a couple of blows through before connecting and drawing on it. I have gotten around the problem by activating the battery a couple of times without drawing on it. I think the blow it through method is best though. It must be where most of the liquid has soaked in to the stuffing but some 'pools' in the central breathe through hole. Hence why we're getting the liquid in our mouths. Hope you sort it cos i know it tastes horrible...lol.

Eh, it happens sometimes. You've gotten some really good advice above.

The only $.02 I have to add is to let the juice sit in the carto for a bit and fully absorb into the cotton. This happens to me when I get impatient and am using higher than 30% VG juices. They're thicker and take longer.
Loooooong Slow draws are helpful.

Well, in IMO next time try to fill it with less liquid, use a fresh new BOGE carto and drop at least 10 drops in it. Worth the try.

 

[sadoway7]

yeah. i found in my carto's i should let them sit or else i get a mouth full of grose, if its leaking out the battery end you have to much.
