Do you guys change your wick and clean out your tank every time you change flavors?

Depends on the flavors but usually a good idea. If they are complimenting flavors you can get away with it but it is still probably a good idea to change it so you get the true flavor of the new juice. Don't be lazy :p

Edit: I have several little jewler zip lock bags with different flavors written on them for my different flavor heads for my favorite topper.

Changing out the wicks just seems like too much work sometimes. If you don't mind the mix of the flavors for a pull or two, I would just vape on top of it. Unless the flavors are completely unbalanced. For instance, any MINT. I hate MINT. It never goes away no matter what you do.

I've ruined a couple tanks just from vaping on wintergreen...never will I make that mistake again.
 
Is it really for only a pull or two or does the flavor linger on the wick for longer or mix with the juice in the tank? I agree about mint. I won't be buying it again.

Well I vape on coffee flavors a lot, but even so, I'm able to burn through them and taste my Honeydew Cotton Candy in a couple hits. Also the other way around. I usually vape till I get a slight hint of burning, then I know I'm good to redrip another flavor.

But again...MINT is going to stay in your wick forever. Even worse in my Nautilus...I ended up throwing away brand new coils from the mints. Not menthol...just mint.
 
Right on. I'm almost finished a tank of strawberry and I'm going to throw in some coffee next. I think they should compliment each other ok until the berry is gone.

With the coffee, you should be able to taste a hint of strawberry in the first pull, but not so much afterwards. I just go ahead and try different things to learn from experience :D Just don't drip hot sauce, it's not something worth experiencing....
 
Ok, so I'm reading this and I didn't see the big ones. First off, what kinda wick and arty. Genesis with Ss cable or wire mesh hold flavor longer but can be simply rinsed. Cotton holds flavor but if they are similar or complimentary, vape through. If not, simply change the cotton. (its the reason I use coils that the wick can easily be changed... Anything micro/nano coil) If you are using a dripping atty and sillica, light the thing on fire with a lighter. It burns off all flavor and after it cools go for it.
 
I usually clean between, now that I know how, but I used to just make sure I got flavors that complement each other or bought another tank. My girlfriend enjoys the meddling of flavors together and is actually currently vaping chocolate on top of a Red Bull flavor... Gross!
