Hi all,

First of all i would like to mention that i am not a experienced vaper.
So please, be gentle. Thank you ;)

I have this liquid and when i drip it fresh on the coil it taste amazing on the exhale.
But the 3th hit, there is almost no flavour compared to the first hit.
Also the nicotine or throat hit is muted. Keep in mind there is enough liquid in the juice well.
So i only get the ''good'' taste and throat hit by dripping it directly on the coil.

I tried to wick with less cotton (because i always tend to put a little to much in) but the result is kinda the same.
Maybe i could try to wick it even with lesser cotton, but there is not much cotton in the coil anymore..

Pretty definitely sounds like a wicking problem!

if your coil is working right...

1) unless you're running it too dry, or start dry, the liquid may be getting pulled into your wick, so you simply don't have enough... it needs to be well saturated.

2) this is dripping, it's hard to have too much cotton unless it's so tight that the liquid can't even be absorbed, but then you'd get dry hits.

You don't state about the RDA, your build, what mod you're using, your settings, if you're doing TC, etc. Could be a case that you're not setting things high enough and once you've done the first "hit" you're inhale (airflow) and liquid are cooling the coil so much that it's no longer vaping right.

Any difference in amount of clouds?
