Quickly changing flavors

[bander68]

I took advantage of a recent 50% off sale I read about here and ordered 10 small bottles of flavors I've been wanting to try. They will arrive soon, maybe even today! I was curious if anybody had any tips for how to quickly try them all.... In other words, change from one flavor to the next on the same atty without any residual flavor from the previous one. Should I pull out the drip tip that came with my ego?

I'm assuming you ordered from Gourmet Vapors, because I ordered some from them too during their 50% off sale. I already received mine and tried them out and right now they don't taste like much of anything yet. So, you'll probably want to let them steep for awhile anyway. I'm going to let mine sit and go back to them in about a week or so.

I would recommend a drip tip, and when you get tired of one flavor, blow out the atomizer into a kleenex real well to get most of the juice out, then drip another flavor.

The best flavor experience would be to clean out the atty another way, but that is more time consuming.

BTW, I used to live in Conroe, TX, lived there for 5 years. Moved back to Montana almost five years ago.

Blow them out as jlarson suggests. This will work for flavors of a similar family. For those tough to remove flavors you could pick up a bottle of want2vape atty refresher. The stuff works pretty good:

Correct assumption. Without getting off topic, steeping means to let it sit with the lid off, right?

Yes that is what steeping means. And welcome to ecf.

Like live2ski said, some flavors are persistent. Menthol, clove, and cinnamon are quite persistent, the other two more than menthol. You won't get cinnamon or clove out by blowing the atomizer out.

Sometimes I drip to try juices but the flavors linger so long and I don't feel like vaping 0nic PG in between. SO I do it the sloppy way - as soon as the vapor gets a bit light I blow out the atty then do another.

I also have decent luck using a small cart+atty w/ blue foam in the cart (my M401 or my 510 w/ a 306 atty). It doesn't get as much juice on the atty as dripping. If I like what I put into the top of the foam I'll vape it until the vapor lets up. By then, the top of the foam is usually pretty dry and I'll try another juice. If I do not like one, I will take out the foam, rinse, pat dry well, and replace.

You are making me want to buy juice. I am plotting my drop to 6mg. I have some Gourmet Vapor coming (not a lot since I found out about the sale on its last night). And I already have my fave BWB and FSUSA juices in 6 and 0 (0 for cutting old 12)

When I have a handful of new juices I want to taste test, I usually have a few clean atty's that I use. I use a different atty for each flavor, then just run them under hot water and blow them out well (blow on the open end, not the threaded end). This quick cleaning works well for testing, and takes a couple minutes to do.

Even if you only have one atty, it's pretty fast to clean it in between flavors.

This sounds like the way I'll go. Fits well with what i'm already doing.

One more thing about "trying out all the new flavors", steeping has been covered but I see from your sig that you're only 11/12 days into vaping. Given that, your taste buds are still trying to adjust to no analogs. That may take another week or two. So, what you like today, you may not like next week.

And remember to smell the vapor - most of flavor is aroma.

I have found that juices rarely taste the same a week after the initial tasting, maybe it's my dead old taste buds.

When I get new juices I just drip them consecutively with no cleaning routine in between. I sometimes get flavors that are better than any of the juices sampled individually.

That atty refresher sounds interesting, but no way I have any interest in using it since they don't disclose what they are making it out of.

That's exactly how I feel about it. It could be perfectly safe, but how would I know that?

 

[Descente36]

you could use a syringe to draw out the liquid, saving it for another time.

I simply posted what works. This supplier has a proprietary juice that does clean out atty's. For a further explanation see post #8 in the link below (I am certain they would not be using it themselves if it was some terrible solvent):

Feel free not to use it but for those that want to try it, I along with many others have used it without dying a slow horrible death and it does work. The main ingredient looks to be PG and the stuff is flavorless.

In the link it says it contains PGA. In other words, you could just clean out the atty with everclear or vodka.

True PGA and PG/vg mix I think. Anyway in NY we can not buy everclear and for people who are a little pressed for time and have extra $$$$ this stuff is worth is IMO. I will buy it again.
