Can be a couple things

As you stated wicking not enough causing a gap between coil and wick, excess juice fills the gap, then boils and pops
2nd is in the coil, there is a gap of some sort, as with a wick gap, juice fills this gap then boils and pops
3rd is the wicking is so fast, liquid dances on the hot coil, and spits and pops around
4th the reverse pressure vacuum you cause pulling hard on a sub-ohm setup, pulls a lot of juice into the chamber, the air flow pulls this excess liquid up through the mouth piece

Mostly see this with higher VG liquids at higher outputs, not exact but example 20w plus

Why do you get spitting juice, I know it's due to the wicking but is it because the wick is not tight enough through the coil or just generally not enough wick?
Not every spec of juice will be boiled on the coil, so the harder you pull, the more you will notice it..............

Cheers mate very informative there, I've been building for a couple of months now and the wicking is definitely the hardest part, I always use 100VG juice for the clouds, I love messing around with builds at the moment but had a couple of spitting issues, I will pull it apart and try again, cheers
