Hey, ive been vaping Bananas Fosters Coffee for a year and a half, now and just read that cinnamon clogs and kills carts and attys.

Ive never blown a cart or atty ive only thrown em away after they gum up and clog.

Does Bananas Fosters Coffee have cinnamon? I think it does im just asking here again to make sure. Im on a mobile device.

Im trying to find a new flavor. Snickerdoodle cookies shouldnt have cinnamon right? I loved cinnamon bun and cinnamon danish banana, but i think im swearing off cinnamon because i HATE the hard draw after 2 days!

I believe it's the cinnamon oil, such as in atomic redhot type flavors, that should be avoided in tanks, and not the cinnamon spice in bakery flavors. AFAIK, it cracks clear plastic such as carto tanks and clear cartos. If you're using ss or black cartos or any atty you shouldn't have a problem at all.

Its not tanks or carts cracking, its clogging thats a problem. I go through 2 carts a week because the draw becomes too stiff.

If snickerdoodle has cinnamon than i guess im going with Irish Cream Coffee... ....reluctantly.

I'm not an expert by any means, but I believe there's cinnamon oil, and cinnamon flavoring which is water or alcohol based. The oil, along with wintergreen oils and some others, can damage clear plastic, whereas the flavorings do not. The only things I've heard or seen to have clogging issues would be dark or cloudy juices that leave sediment behind. You might try asking in the DIY or ejuice sections of the forum for more details. Good luck!

Just so you guys all know, there are NO OILS in any of our juices. Also, the cinnamon that is in the Red Hot Cinnamon Candy is completely different than the "spice" type cinnamon found in some of the bakery flavors. The flavoring in Red Hot Cinnamon Candy CAN tend to stick in an atomizer, and it is much stronger in flavor than the bakery cinnamon.

The Red Hot Cinnamon Candy contains a flavoring that uses two particular molecules found in cinnamon oil (cinnamaldehyde and eugenol), but does not contain any of the oil itself. These same two molecules are used to flavor things like cinnamon candies and gum. You may notice that RHCC separates like oil and water would, but there is neither any oil nor any water in the juice. The reason for the separation is that cinnamaldehyde does not mix as readily with VG as it does with PG, and our juice contains more VG than PG.

Again, there is no oil in any of our juices. This seems to be going around some of the other forums where the conjecture and lack of knowledge starts panics about oils in juices. I'm not sure how to make it any more clear that our juices don't have oils!

Thanks for clearing that up. I figured there weren't any oils in there, since I heard that was kind of a big "no no" in the juice world, but since I didn't know I didn't say anything. And I still buy Red Hot Cinnamon Candies like it's going to disappear one day!! That flavor is amazing!

I'm not sure it's completely clear what is causing the damage, but I'm an exclusive Ms T vaper, and I can't use tanks with polycarbonate tubing - I know from experience. They last me about two weeks, then develop tiny hairline cracks, then disintegrate completely. I'm looking at something like an iAtty if I can manage to snag one, because I like the idea of a tank, but I'm not changing from juice I love just to suit hardware limitations.
