Ihave been trying new flavors and when I put a new cartridge witha new flavor on I can taste the last flavor I used. How do I get rid of previous flavor taste?
MY atty has the taste of my last cartridge

Hi kellie,
It can be a problem, depending on the flavor.
I've had to resort to rinsing and drying both the cart and atty at times.
If it doesn't go away within a half hour of vaping I start the warm water running.
I got some french pipe once (bleh) and finally just chucked everything but the battery. lol

What a lot of folks wind up doing is have dedicated atomizers for certain "families" of flavors. For example, an atomizer to use with fruit flavors, a separate atomizer for tobacco, and yet another one for menthol. That way when you taste the old flavor, it's hopefully fairly complimentary with the new one, and eventually, the taste of the old passes.
Some folks rinse their atomizers--even boil them in hot water--then THOROUGHLY dry them out. I've heard folks using hairdryers on low settings. I may be in the minority, but I don't wash my atomizers, so I can't comment on how well that works. I killed an atomizer by cleaning it, so I just don't do it anymore (although in all fairness, it was probably on its last legs anyway).
Instead of cleaning the atomizer, I blow it out. I remove the cartridge then separate the atomzier from the battery. I then take some kleenex and roll a corner of it into a thin "finger," which I then stick in the barrel of the atomizer. I then gently but firmly blow on the other end of the atomizer (the end that attaches to the battery). Remove tissue and do it again until you don't have any more liquid coming out. Then, reprime the atomizer with a couple of drops of the new liquid and vape away. This won't completely remove the taste of the old liquid, but it will shorten the length of time you have to vape through it.

I recently spent an afternoon trying 14 different flavors from a sampler pack.
But I wasn't using cartridges, just dripping straight onto my RN4081 atomizer.
I found that if I blew out the atomizer as much as I could there was not enough juice left behind to taste with the next flavor. I just used the tried and true method of blowing really hard through the hole on the battery side of the atomizer (with a paper towel to catch the juice) until I couldn't get any more juice to come out.

Thank you wiping it out and blowing really helped. I'm afraid to wash them lol. Do you guys drain your attys at nite?
Do that -- but after you've blown out the old juice, don't forget to re-prime the atomiser with the new flavor -- two or three drops directed as accurately as possible toward the center/bridge should do it.
Personally, I blow mine out at the end of the day (when I remember) and let them sit upside down on a paper towel. That way I can start fresh the next day with putting a couple of drops into the atomizer of whatever I want to vape.
But I'm lazy . . . and forgetful . . . and so often I don't bother/remember. It hasn't seemed to affect my atomizers one way or another.
I do, but I'm not sure why.
I've heard that lots of people think it is important for long-term atomizer health.
But I am having a hard time finding a logical explanation for why it would be.
I still do it anyway.
I don't drain mine at night. So far I have only lost one atty - two months ago.
