Hi , I've been vaping for a week now and doing great really enjoying it , the last 3 days I have started getting a bad taste in my mouth to the point that it is stoping me vaping , if I had to describe the taste I would say that it is vary tangy , slightly peppery , and would even say my mouth is getting sore now toung and throat , can't taste the flavours from the juices that I could the first few days .

I have been vaping alot and the only thing I can think is that it is the nicotine and me vapeing to much ? I'm using 14 mg pg fluid .

If any one has any ideas please help

I ordered some more juice 2 days ago from paradise vape , which is my first order from there , ordered a medium mg which 18 not 14 as the medium is from liberty flights , they haven't arrived yet but I am kicking my self now wish I had orderd a lower mg now to see if it's any better

I'm definitely no expert so take this for what it is. I don't think it is too much nicotine. 14 mg is pretty low from what i understand. I was told that if you vape 3 ml of 24mg liquid a day that is equal to about the same amount of nicotine in a pack of cigarettes. I can't remember the exact formula to determine that. It was on a backwoods brew new letter. I am also relatively new to vaping so I could be wrong. I have never experienced a bad taste like you are that I couldn't attribute to my carto or atty being dirty or bad. Maybe someone else will know more but it does sound like it could be dehydration. Maybe your taste buds are just coming back to life. If you quit smoking a week ago when you started vaping then your taste buds will be changing. I loved tobacco juices when I started vaping now I can't stand them.

yea same with the atomizer and drip tip , havent used for the last day or so tho will give a go again now , i got a vision ego yesterday and same with that , the first 3 to 4 days were fine with the boge and really enjoyed it , but cant even tell the diff between the diff flavours now just get this terrible flavour , i would go as far as saying my tongue feels burnt and sore now , ive been trying to vape as little as possible but have been using it even tho it tastes terrible as at the moment it is better than the alternative of going back to the real thing, hope i resolve this quick

Give the atomizer a try, sometimes they have primer fluid in them and have to be blown out. You can try dry burning (a few quick short button pushes~no more than that) or try dropping a few drops of liquid into it and blowing it out into a paper towel.

Sometimes I notice that if I have an off carto it takes a while to get it out of my taste buds, til then everything tastes like pooooooooo!

lol hope it goes away soon

maybe im looking at this the wrong way , maybe i need i higher nicotine content so that i get the nicotine intake i crave quicker and need to vape less frequently, well the new juice i have ordered is slightly higher nic content and i have also ordered 2 non tobacco flavours maybe this will help

im confident that the carts are not going dry , pluss with this vision ego i can see how much juice is in there all day but same problem .

i am currently using PG , What diff will it VG make ? willing to give any thing a go at the moment

i just cant get my head around how i could quite easily taste the difference between the 4 diff juices i got in the begining no prob at all , preferred dome over others but now they all taste the same terrible lol and one sore tongue

The odds are it isn't the nicotine.
You are making a radical change to the chemistry in your mouth. Water will help you get over the hump. No offense intended, but brushing more often is like hitting the reset button on your mouth. Chewing gum may help. What worked best for me was salty snacks. The salt cut the taste and made me thirsty so I drank more water!

I think you have the same problem as me.
I would get great vape for 2 to 3 days then i would get that horrid taste.
the fault with me was how i was trying to vape. i had the ego-t and me and my wife both killed the atomizers due to the way we sucked on them like there was no tomorrow.
i got an old 510 cartomizer and just took small sucks that where not to hard on the cart and found the hit and taste came right back.
i then bought a clearomizer for my ego and got the same fault as i did with the atomizer. Bad taste but lots of vape. so what i did was go back to light draws and short and its now 3 days of use and still great... get great vape and flavor and the throat hit is spot on.. Its all down to how you use these things.

I haven't tried the Vision eGo / Stardust yet (coming), but like any clearomizer it is possible that it hits dry even when there is plenty of liquid in the reservoir. I don't think this is necessarily your problem, but make sure you tilt it downwards from time to time to help it wick better - that's what I've seen in video reviews...

As mentioned water is important especially if you drink caffeinated drinks. I drink 1 1/2 litres per day and when I don't my body tells me in a not so nice way. Dehydration can really ruin the vaping experience. Are you using a drip tip that would help prevent juice from going into the mouth. 100% PG juices can be hard on the mouth and throat and some vapers have found they have a sensitivity to it. Make absolute sure the carto is first filled properly and is fully saturated. Some. like myself, are also sensitive to the juice sweetener ethyl maltol/ cotton candy. Produces cankers in my mouth and when I gave it to a friend they vaped it without issue.
