Possible coil problem... hits taste flavorless, like "milk"??

I am assuming this is because of my coils. I'm using Kanger Dual Coils, the kind with the wicks exposed that look like the single coils, not the enclosed ones that look like a sleek full metal look.

First... do these coils just suck? Seriously, I used to have a Protank3Mini with single coils, and these things would last 1-2 weeks at least. These dual coils are getting clogged, and I always have one dud per pack... maybe I need to try the enclosed wick ones?

But my question is, for some reason some juices will vape fine and be flavorful, but then once I break the coil in and start vaping, there isn't really any flavor and all I taste is this "milky" aftertaste. It's not a burnt taste, and I still get full vape production, but there's no flavoring except that aftertaste of a milky sensation. I don't know exactly how to describe this flavor, I think someone told me that's the way unflavored VG tastes?

Any suggestions or solutions? I'm vaping a regular Protank3 on a Variable voltage ego, any setting has the same result taste wise. Also, I'm vaping around a 60/40 VG/PG ratio. If this means anything as well, I vaped exclusively Vapor Chef juices for over a year when I first started, and only notice this milky flavor for other, lesser known juices. Literally every juice I've had that isn't vapor chef has vaped like this out of this setup. Right now I'm vaping Beantown juice and I notice this taste.

An ego twist style battery doesn't have enough power to use a dual coil (as compared to a single coil). The flavor you get will be extremely anemic.

That would make sense considering it's only been a problem with this tank, but are you positive this would be the case, because I actually got the battery specifically for the protank 3 with the dual coil because of some friends who told me to get the 1600 Ego battery because they said it would work fine, they told me that the regular Ego battery I had wouldn't be hot enough with the 3.7 volts or whatever, but this one goes to 4.8 and they told me that would work fine.

Do I need a different tank, should I go back to the single coil design?
