My Ecig started to taste bad!

[bovril]

I don't know why but i'm not tasting the flavour anymore, instead there's this really bad taste.
Could this be because i regularly switch flavours? I recently switched from strawberry and pineapple several times.
I tried both liquids and they both have this bad taste. When i'm about to switch flavours i fill the tank with water, shake it and give it an hour or two to dry out, then fill it with the juice.

What kind of tank are you using? how old is the tank?

You may need a new tank. I use a new one every 3rd week.

Probably time for a replacement coil.

I have the ego c4 and it's about a month old.

I would guess your atomizer is gunked up. It either needs to be cleaned (dry burn) or replaced.

I'm using one too, only on about 3 weeks with it. I too do the rinse and shake method to clean, however I just did a dry burn with it today to clean (been watching youtube this morning..lol) and it's still going good, Now you may try this at your own risk, or just dump it and time for a new one. But if it were me, I would go a head and do the dry burn. It may help, then again it might not be worth saving.

Clearomizers I was told can last anywhere from one day to well....when ever they quit.. lol

I just dry burned like they said on the youtube tutorials, seemed that it did have abit if gunk.
But now i tried it again and it's even worse and now theres a burn taste too. Is this normal?

You definitely need a new tank, try a ce5 tank, easier to clean between fills. You can actually take a ce5 apart to clean it all out really good, dry the wick an reassemble. Dump the ce4s, those are throw-aways

I have gotten to the point where I have several extra atomizers so I use them if I change a flavor but before I would put some Everclear (PGA pure grain alcohol) in my atomizer and let it sit over night and wash it out with hot water in the morning and let it dry. This helped me change flavors without having to replace the coil or getting a mixed flavor I didn't like. Good luck to you and I hope all the suggestions here helps you.

Dawn dishwashing liquid works great to clean out your tank, coils. Just make sure you rinse the heck out of them in HOT water. I soak mine for about 15 minutes, rinse, rinse and repeat.

I am not a big fan of dry burning, a lot of people go "too far" and wind up with a burnt wick. If it tastes burnt, throw it out. You will never get the burnt smell gone...
