I got a bottle of Vader by Cyber liquids, I thought it was going to be great since they Describe it as " a cookie dough concoction with a vanilla custard base with hints of milk, maple and hazelnut. This is so good it will make you want to go to the darkside."

I filled up my tank, but its tastes horrible!! It doesn't even taste like cookie dough!! I think it taste a bad mix of Waffle Crisp Cereal...

Is it OK to put it back in the original juice bottle, cuz there's still juice left in there?
Do I put it in another bottle? What do people usually do when u fill up ur tank and the flavor is Gross?

When u guys try out a new Flavor how much liquid do u put in ur Tank?

Not really sure what to do, Cuz theres no way to Power tru that Nasty stuff!!

Would it taste different in another Tank?

All RDAs are basically the same. If you can wrap the coil, you can build just about any dripper. There is a learning curve, especially regarding wire gauge, resistance, Ohm's Law, and safety, and there are some tools you will need but to me it'a all part of the "hobby" of vaping. For a more casual user or someone that just vapes to stay off cigs and doesn't want to bother - the cheap clearos as suggested by mcol above may be a better option. There are also dripping atomizers like the Cisco that can be used, rinsed and reused.

I would dump it down the drain also. Usually first impressions don't change.

If I thought that aging the juice might help I may pour it back into the bottle and try again in a couple of weeks, but generally that's true for me as well - if I don't like it right out of the bottle 99% of the time "steeping" doesn't work for me.

As an experienced vaper, I sample new flavors on a dripper.

Some complex flavors require some steeping (maturing). I've had flavors that tasted not so good initially, but allowed to steep or mature, they improved greatly. Some, however, just taste bad no matter what. I love Pecan Pie, it's my favorite pie, and got some Pecan Pie flavored e-liquid from a popular manufacturer that I've used before. It's been steeping for two years and it still tastes bad. :(

Based on my experience with Cyber liquids, dump it down the drain and throw away the rest of the bottle.

If a juice is custom made / fresh mixed, I will usually give it 2 weeks to steep. I have had some juices go from blah to great, but only when they've been fresh mixed. I'm afraid this is not the case with your cyber liquid and would not expect it to change.

I use a REO and usually just drip some on my atty first and test before I decide to fill my squonk bottle, but when I used tanks I'd usually fill it half way to test first.

Might be time to let go. ;)

testing is always best! I have the IGO L it is a single coil building system and it is very easy to use and switch flavors from. I love it so much I use it primarily now since I like to change flavors a lot. I would just dump out the juice and wash your tank really good.

Yes - Igo L, that's what I meant. I edited from "S" to "L". The S model is the very tiny version that fits on an Ego battery, the L is a bit larger, 20mm I believe.

You can also get little 510 atomizers for testing juice.
Ah! That's a good idea. I bought some caramel flavored juice at a new-to-me shop and it was awful! I tested it at the store and was unsyre of it, but i convinced mysrlf it was just different from what i had before. Wrong! It was gross. Unfortunately, I'd filled my Kanger sub-tank Nano with the stuff. I knew I wouldn't be able to vape through it so I poured it down the sink. Thankfully, my go-to shop guys cleaned up the tank, burned the yucky out of the coils and filled it with an actual caramel flavor. I know I'll have to throw out the bad one and its a bummer that it's a 10 ml bottle.

I thought U could not or at least Not supposed to Dry Burn the KT SubTank Coils.
I kno I can Thrash it, I was not sure If I could put it back in the Bottle... I mean are those the only options? I dunno lately it's been hard to Find a good new flavor

It's probably not advised to do what my guy did, but I don't think I'd call it a "dry" burn since the wick was still saturated with juice. He only burned the coils for a few seconds at a time while blowing on them, and no more than 3 or 4 times. There was a little flavor crossover for a little bit, but it was better than it was before.

I think options are pretty limited in the case of yucky juice. Find someone to trade with or pitch it are about the only two I know of. It is unfortunate that I've found only one store out of the 3 I've visited has great, reliable juice flavors. That's the main reason I haven't tried shopping online for it yet.
