Not for foods, but for the past two days (after lots and lots of vaping) I have noticed a loss of taste in almost all of my devices (510, 801, 601). I'm mixing juices, mainly menthol, strawberry, and the last of my italian cream (from vapor station...AWESOME). It has been tasting great for the past week until yesterday. I'm topping off just as often as I have been. It now all tastes the same: like nothing. wondering if maybe the constant menthol has had something to do with it? All devices are producing the same amount of vapor as before (except my 801 which is bugging me)...

If you direct drip and still have loss of taste, it just you.
If your using carts and they have been used for sometime. You may need to replace the cart.

I noticed after a while, the cotton filler retains the flavor somehow. Once I replace the cotton or use a new cart all together, this seems to remedy it.

I am using carts, but even when I use a brand new one I am getting the same taste as one that I have been using for a week. I try using only strawberry liquid, then only menthol, all the same. I think I overloaded my taste buds the last few days but we'll see.

I'm having the same problem. It's definitely the user, because I handed my PV over to a friend who had tried it earlier, and he said it tasted exactly the same to him.

It could be the nicotine numbing the taste buds, but why can I taste everything else just fine?

I vape at fairly regular intervals, so I don't think it's an OD symptom either.

If anyone has figured this one out, please help.

I've been having the same problem. I also thought it was my taste buds at first, but I notice that after I top off a cart (or put a couple drops directly on the atty) the taste comes back for awhile. 5-6 puffs, and it's gone again, but plenty of juice left in the cart. I'm having the same problem with all my liquids, so I'm thinking it has to be my atomizers, but I have no idea how to fix it...?
