Semi-noob; Cotton wick question?

I use this stuff and it works great. I haven't touched silica for a few weeks.

I can't speak for the others you've mentioned as I haven't tries them. I also have some organic cotton balls (pharmacy) that I am planning on trying. Pull some, twist, and insert into coil. Just been crazy busy.

 

FYI. I boiled for only a few minutes and it left the taste of cotton/hemp in the vape. I now boil it for 20 minutes and then use it. If you're out and need to rebuild and can't wait to dry it, cut some off and microwave it dry.

 

Here is the best cotton it requires no boiling. It's all I use :

I used peaches n cream cotton yarn from Wally world - then hemp- then bunny balls Drifter posted - went back to P&C - beck to silica - now I am back to em bunnies -different ppl like different setups - just like juice - for me BUNNY BALLS RULE........

 

Drifter - do u boil em first? Or no need to since they must be free of any impurities based on what they are used for?

 

I took super_X_drifter's advice and got the CVS cotton. It's good stuff. It's sterile. So, there's no need to boil it.

 

No boiling.

 

Anyone know where to get organic cotton for wicks? I saw one poster uses organic cotton yarn but no links were posted (and he hasn't been here in 2 months or I would have sent a PM).

EDIT: Well, found these too: 100 Organic Cotton Wick 15ft 3mm for Atty | eBay ... but now I am wondering if Ekowool wrapped around organic cotton ( like these New Double Twik Ekowool and Organic Cotton Yarn Hybrid Wick for Atomizers | eBay ) would keep the cotton from tending to burn... A bit pricey though.

Anyone using cotton wicks have problems with burn issues?
