switching flavor with (at the moment) one clearomizer

[feniks]

hey, just a question ... I'm new to vaping, but have run into a hardware issue .. sort of LOL.
I have a bunch of different flavors to try out, but for now I only have a single clearomizer (other e-cig kits coming in mail slowly) ... so let's say I want to switch to another flavor next day ... how would I go about it?

vape it down until empty (won't it damage the clearomizer?) or open it up when juice is low and ... and what exactly LOL? I assume I can't wash it out with water, right?

... so what do you do when you switch flavors with same clearomizer/cartomizer/tank/whatever?

thanks.

Wash it out with water

It's very simple
I have about 5 different Flavors going all the time (5 different devices) and they all change daily.
I like these:

They are even easier to clean, if that's possible (faster drying)
You need more then one, because you want them to dry before refilling

You vape it till your done, then wash, dry, refill
If you just refill without cleaning you will still taste the old flavor
Lets say you had coffee, then wanted watermelon. If you just add watermelon, you will still just taste coffee
If you had watermelon, and wanted to switch to coffee without cleaning, you will taste a mix for a very short time, before is all coffee, because coffee is a much stronger flavor then watermelon

Happy vaping

thanks for chiming in and confirming that washing is safe.
so wash it out and dry would be the way ... I guess I need to order more clearomizers now LOL ... oh well hehe
... or suffer mixed flavors for a bit ...

You may find that you're not suffering with a mix and instead like the combo... when my clearo get low I add another equal amount of another "compatible" juice just to see what the combo tastes like. Some good and some not so... but keeps the taste buds alive.

makes sense ... I guess I will have no choice but to try it this way sooner or later before I get a pack of new clearo's.

I did this once. Was low on menthol and accidentally filled with watermelon, and was happily surprised. Or maybe it was low on watermelon and filled with menthol... either way, the first several hits were great! Butterscotch and waffle mix though... was terrible, and that was done intentionally. Tastes like metal.

Menthol can make 'most' fruit Flavors taste good

thanks for warning about the latter mixture LOL. later on I will mix leftovers of Cheesecake Torte with Strawberry Lemonade ... later at home I will mix it with Menthol

yeah, that's what I read too, menthol fits nicely most of the fruity flavors

 

[telijah]

Not to sid track this thread, but are you saying to add a little menthol to fruit flavors, or add a little fruit to menthol? or is it 50/50?

Taste is subjective, if you want that, try a little menthol, and keep adding till it fits your wants/ needs

I keep tobacco flavors together, and I have a constant flow of ever-so-slightly different flavors

One of the big advantages of clearos for me is you can switch flavours easily,which
can't be done with cartos. However as has been mentioned they have to within the
same flavour group, you'd have to clean the clearo really hard to go from a tobacco
flavour to fruit! The main groups I keep seperate are tobacco,fruit,coffee/chocalate
each group will need its own clearo (or at least a seperate head).Other strong flavours
also need a seperate clearo.

 

[feniks]

hmm, I agree on keeping groups separately ... but some group interactions are quite tasty (subjective!)

I went from Cheesecake Torte (awesome, but a bit buttery) to little Cheesecake + full Strawberry Lemonade (pretty good, but Strawberry Lemonade alone is killer strong LOL), then little Strawberry Lemonade + Tobacco Menthol (bad choice, menthol overwhelmed everything), then little Menthol + Cappucino (not bad, actually liked it) ... now waiting until I drain it down as much as possible, then need to wash it down to fully get rid of cheesecake, strawberry and menthol flavors LOL, I can still taste them slightly from time to time LOL.

keeping a separate clearo for each group sounds like a perfect idea, I second that
