    Morning shinies ;)

    Sooooooo I had to rewick my 4 Axials this morning. Purely due to compulsion :rolleyes:. After 9 days - two looked fine, one on the borderline and my Oreo looked horrible. But it usually does after a few days.

    I'm quite the opposite. I'll run a wick until it's so bad that the coil needs replaced. My menthol tobacco coil usually looks like a piece of charcoal by the time I change it.

    Now that's pushing limits Hitt.:D I suppose it's because you have so many in rotation...it'll take up all your time if you rewick sooner :lol:
    But you have me confused here...when that coil is that gunked, surely you can taste the burn? Don't that deter you?
    I stop the moment I detect the faintest taste of burn...:cool:

    LOL :lol:, when I saw your first pic, I said to the wife we need to go shopping tomorrow for a proper pork rack (not easy with this lock down). Thanks mate that looks seriously delicious.
    I'll gladly take half that rack. You can have a bottle of my vegetable achar I made today :wub:

    I think the menthol tobacco tastes better once the coil starts to gunk a little. I used to use Puresmoker silver leaf menthol til they went out of business then started diy. The menthol tobacco was my very first successful recipe but not without several horrible failures first. I’m not that bad with all my tanks but that one I purposely let it go too long.

    I'm aiming to end up in the middle. Still rewicking before I get the burnt taste, but not when my wicks would be judged barely used, by 95% of vapers. At the moment, I'm in the 75% would judge barely used rewicking club :oops:

    But then again, I love the taste of a fresh wick - especially in my RTAs. So I'm going to be stuck in the 75% club for a while yet :lol:

    At last it's throw away excess vape stuff day. Been contemplating this for a long time...but I just couldn't. Today i'm steeling myself and chucking everything I won't need again..starting with old synthetic tobacco juices and old MTL tanks....lot of history right there :wub:
    I'll give you a follow up about round two...;)

    You KNOW everyone in the thread zoomed in on the tank bin to make sure you hadn’t made any “mistakes” :lol:

    Stop it! I just started using Dvarws about a month ago now you tell me this one is much better. Did you get the MTL? What build did you put in it?
    Honestly, the coil and wick in the box, which I normally don’t even look at. Yes, mtl. I will send you all my dvarws. For me, the flavor on a simple round wire beats dvarw with any kind of coil. The flavor is just so crisp. @Daniel Forsyth will just have to forgive me for dissing it all these months :blush:

    Of course I'll forgive you:wub: as long as you get another 10 like you said:w00t:
    I'm so very glad that you are enjoying your new Brunhilde so much:)
