I posted about my mouth and tongue burning and got some great advice. I have lowered my nic from 12 to 6 and it seems a little better but not helping my cravings. Still trying to put the dang cigs down. I drink at least a gallon of water a day. I am waiting on new juice from a different vendor to test flavoring. I starting using a nautilus mini on istick 20 about 3 weeks ago. I had been using ego twist with small carto. Should I try unflavored juice? Any advice is welcome because every time I try to use it my whole mouth burns especially my tongue.
Still having mouth issues.......need advice

Sounds like you are doing the right stuff. Drinking water and trying different flavors. Maybe a lower pg, people seems to be allergic to it. Try a high vg e-liquid. Why do you think it is the nicotine?
I second the idea of changing the ratio to a higher VG concentration. I found that max VG mixes tend to be easier on my tongue and mouth. I also tend to get a little more hoarseness when I vape anything with more than about 30% PG. It's really a case of just trying different things until you find what works best for you. There is no right or wrong as long as it works for you.
Thanks so much for the help! I just thought the nicotine might be what was irritating my mouth. What ratio should I try? Will it all work in my setup?
For me this turned out to be some artificial ingredient additive in the ejuice. I almost gave up and went back to smoking. Find some no artificial additive juice. Virgin Vapor maybe? I started making my own from no artificial ingredient flavors. Got mine at Flavor Concentrates. Try unflavored maybe if more convenient just to see if it clears up. Took mine several days to clear up. Was purely killing my buds and mouth.
I would suggest trying max VG (which is as close to 100% as they can get with the flavorings and nicotine). The only time I have had a wicking issue with max VG was when chain vaping on my Subtank mini. I solved the issue by thinning the juice with a little bit of distilled water (I used about 5%). I'm not sure if the nicotine has anything to do with your sensitivity or not, others may know. In my case it was the PG that bothered me.
Higher VG ratio would definitely help. Also, drink liquids while you are vaping to clean the palate.
Thanks again for the help! I will def try higher vg and no artificial flavors. I know it is a process and this forum has absolutely motivated me.
I have found that fresh juice will give me mouth sores...when i was getting the juice in LDPE plastic bottles, letting it sit for about 4 weeks would then stop the sores...with the glass bottles, I am still figuring that out as I havent been using bottles very long, but if i open a glass bottle after my 4 week wait, i have noticed i get the sores, due to the sealed bottles keeping the juice fresh longer...thats just my experience 
There are a minority of vapers who have a pg allergy. Your mouth and tongue burning could be a symptom of this.
There are a number of e-liquid manufacturers who can do 100% Vg and still taste great. I use Dripeez and Virgin Vapors.

What flavor, brand juice are you using? Since you were a smoker, I doubt the nicotine is the problem. Simple flavors like cherry, strawberry, grape, mint, vanilla, etc. have been around for ages and are not likely to cause problems, whether artificial or "natural". Some of the more exotic flavorings contain a host of ingredients. Natural flavorings are more likely to concentrate possible irritants. Without knowing what exactly you are vaping it is hard to figure what the problem could be.
I am using juice from Mount Vapor. I love the blu moo but after a few drags it starts to burn. I have ordered more from Virgin Vapors and Alice in Vapeland with higher vg. Can't wait till they get here! Hoping that will solve my problem.
I haven't read your first post about this but i just seen this this morning. I have been vaping for a couple of weeks now and the one thing i have noticed especially first thing in the morning or if i haven't touched my e cig in a while I notice it burns the crap out of my throat. I have lowered my nicotine level and have been trying all kinds of different flavors it helped a lot at first i didn't notice it as much and when i had been vapin on it for a while i noticed it went away completely, had to push through it for a few mins to get what i wanted. I then switched from my KangerTech EMOW to an iStick 30W with a Kanger Sub Tank, let me tell ya.......completely different experience. when I first vaped at 25W I couldn't quit coughing but as the night went on i was fine and I woke up in the morning and started vaping and everything was still fine I have also been using SpaceJam's ASTRO it's like a blueberry pomegranate idk what kind of setup you have or what your looking to spend but the setup i just got seems to be working great for me
Hi Smiller. I am using an istick 20 with a nautilus mini. I first tried lowering my nic but I am still having burning. My juice tastes really good for a few puffs but the longer I use it the more intense the burning in my mouth gets. So far my throat has not burned at all. I am going to try organic juices with higher vg.
