Whenever I open a new bottle I always wash/clean the tank so the flavors don't mix together. (what's the point of paying 21 for a 30 ml of top shelf stuff when it will be tainted by the last flavor?)

So anyway, I was wondering if when you (personally) take a part the crown, do you remove the orings on the top and bottom metal caps and clean in there? Does juice even get in there? or will just washing the quartz glass portion be good enough? I usually Qtip the chimney, drip tip,etc but curious about those little creases under the o-rings.... and sheesh it would have been nice of uwell to give you like 10 spare orings...


Thanks

No.

No.

Yes, that'll be fine.

Curiosity killed the... oops, that's another story. Leave the o-rings alone. Just see to it that they're seated properly.[/QUOTE]

Don't you think it's great that they've included so much in the Crown package. :) The glass is half full...
and, You're welcome

I probably change flavors once a day at least. Sometimes two or three times a day (e..g, with every tank) because I get bored probably but also because I can. I've had my Crown for months and I've been fine just taking it apart, rinsing it/the glass, top cap, and chimney piece and have yet to ever had to remove, clean, or replace an o-ring. I must say it is nice knowing that I have them (spares) although I have never needed them. My point is, from my experience, you can take the Crown apart as many times as you need to without any issue to clean it, no o-ring removal necessary, just glass.

Like you I find it boring to vape the same flavor all day long.. instead of taking my tanks apart to clean them to change flavors I simply have at least 3 mods set up with different flavors I vape in rotation using the Crown subtanks... saves a lot of wear and tear and effort on my part to clean a tank just to change flavors when it's a lot easier just to pick up another mod/Crown that's ready to go. Just saying:)

Ill be honest, I dont wash it out between different flavors... I vape it until its almost out of juice and then fill with my next flavor. I get a couple more hits of the first flavor and then it morphs to the new one over a few more. the only time I tear the tank apart and give it a good cleaning is when Im changing coils.
