so, i know this sounds pretty juvinile (burnt taste carto's)

[Hopefull Quitter]

i frequently get a burnt taste and i'm a wet nazi when it comes to keeping it filled. so, what's happening? i came up with a theory and i want to know if i'm correct. i think the juice is getting in the tube somehow and coming into direct contact with the coil which immediately burns into a char. after vaping a while, the burnt taste goes away, i'm thinking because the coil is slowly burning off the char( much like the dry burn method we all used to clean our attys). i'm playing "teacher" to my brother and my sister accross the country and i want to help them(as well as myself). i even made a youtube video to clarify the problem.

thanks in advance

I think the key is "the burnt taste goes away" and so I'm guessing you're very close to explaining it. Once the 'sock' or filler is burned, the 'burnt taste does NOT go away'... so it's happening somewhere else.... imvho.

Not Juvenile. Great you're helping your family! More info would've been helpful- OHM of carto, type of carto, what voltage you're vaping at.

If they're Smoktech 1.7's, I've had the same issue and after 3 separate occasions trying, finally gave up on the product and stuck with Boge 2.0's. I've only ever got 4 bad Boges in 2 yrs.

Could be too much VG and not flowing well. Could be vaping too fast. Too high voltage vs. too low OHMs on the carto.

Boge had a long bad run of cartos last year- using any of them?

Do you wait 15 minutes after filling your carto for the juice to evenly wick to all of the filler? It may look wet on top but not necessarily so at the coil.
