Suddenly, its burnt metal taste!

[MitchellBeans]

Hello everyone,

Last night my Joye 510 took on the amazing flavor of "harsh burnt cookware" ... I do not know how it happened. It certainly was not empty, and the atomizer sitll is heating up and producing vapor. I drip liquid into the cart, not onto the atomizer normally.

Any ideas on how it happened / how to get rid of the taste? Its only 8 days old so I do not think it would need replacing yet.

THanks in advance!

I've had it happen and blew it out. I think liquid gets stuck in there and it burns. Or, since you are dripping directly in, maybe you're getting a build up of cooked liquid and it's burning.
If blowing out doesn't help, try cleaning. If that doesn't help, you might have to toss.
Maybe somebody else can give you more options.

I drip exclusively with my 510 and the only time I get a "burnt metal" taste is when its getting low on liquid and its time to redrip.

I tried the "dry burn your atty to prolong its life" thing and mine tasted horrible.

I dropped two drop directly on the atty, and vaped. It was better. I then repeated this several times and now the atty is back to normal.

That certainly sounds like a dry atty. I have had a similar flavor one other time though when vaping a DIY liquid with a lot caramel coloring. If you are mixing your own juice, make sure caramel coloring isn't one of the first couple ingredients listed on the flavoring.

I'd have to agree with everyone else though ... I bet if you drip three or four drops right on the atty bridge, it will clear up.
