Those wh direct drip into an atomizer instead of using a cart or carto, I have a question for you...

When working on multiple flavors, whether because you got a sample pack or because you're one who likes to mix it up, how do you not cross flavors?

Do you use a different atty for each flavor? Do you use one atty but blow it out each time you switch? Or do you just switch flavors and vape through the cross flavor drags?

I just move from one flavor to another at will.
Sometimes every half hour.
:)

But yes, I do sometimes blow it out if I think it would be needed.
And then again, sometimes I don't even bother.

Yes, there are some flavors that take longer than others to get out.
But they almost all get out within a few drags, or sometimes more.

Some stick awhile longer though.

Just try to use complimentary flavors when you switch off.
You might find some combinations that surprise you!!

A little of each of what you mentioned is what I use to do..
Going to start dripping on atty's again anyday now and I bought this on friday/saturday?? when a PIF member shared this in the deals thread:

Purify Atty Flavor Eraser, 10 ml [VTR-PUR-J] - $5.80 : Vape the Rockies, Why smoke when you can vape

They also have a cleanser you can use if preffered..

Oh wow you'll have to post a review of some kind on that, one of the more innovative juice ideas I've seen on here in some time.

Unless it's just pure PG/VG. Cause I got some of that. :laugh:

Wonder what's in the purifier though. I'd like to find out before trying it myself.

I switch between flavors fairly often. I carry 3 or 4 attys depending on the flavor group and use different colored drip tips to tell them apart. Currently I'm using one atty for fruit/mint flavors, one for choco/coffee flavors, and one for A/C.

It really depends on your own preference, and how well your juices mix. I don't worry about it, because all my juices go well together. Might not work so well with, for example, a strong coffee. I tried one once, and quickly flushed the atty with PGA. If I were using a menthol juice, I'd likely dedicate an atty to it, because I rarely want menthol.

A good neutral flavor like BWB's Malty or VS's Phoenix seems to "cleanse" my atty...

I use a different atty for flavors that clash... like minty/cinnamon/coffee flavors...

but my tobaccos seem fine on one atty...
coffee/candy on another...
mont and cinnamon have their owm

I do a few things:

sometimes I rubber band the cart and atty to the juice, and switch to a clean cart and atty for maximum flavor purity.

If I'm lazy..I pick a flavor that's close the last one after the atty has run a bit dry, i may decide to use a fresh cart when I do this.

(I use carts and direct dripping at the same time because I don't have a drip tip yet. It seems to be working nicely, but I want a drip tip.)

Another thing I do, so I have a lot of fresh attys around...

I let them sit in a shot glass of rubbing alcohol for five minutes everynight, when I pull them out and I can get a clean stream of rubbing alcohol through the atty (rather than drips) I roll them on a papertowel and set them out to dry overnight. I keep a dollarstore camera pouch with me full of juices and fresh attys, and I'm good to go throughout the day!

Hope this helps, happy vaping!

For home use, I use 2 attys to drip, 1 for menthol and 1 for various 'tobacco' flavors.
For work and outside, I use 2 'intact' atttys, 1 menthol, 1 not.

The outside attys use the ptb filler which works out fine ( most of the time)
I'm still using the "old fashioned" 510 joye from last yr.

I have not delved into other sweet candy/food flavors as of yet, just want a nic fix.

I normally just power through it and let there be some mix/meld of flavors, although i do somewhat try to transition with something that might be complimentary. matter of fact I have found a couple of new flavors this way that really wowed me. Like BWB Capuccino and BWB Vanilla or BWB Cap and FSUSA Vienna Cream. I now mix those on purpose.

The only flavor so far that I don't much mix with is a strong cinnamon. That seems to ghost up atty, cart, tip...I swear even the battery gets tainted
