Tell us some details, pg/vg ratio, tank, device you're using it on and voltage wattage. This info will yield more accurate responses.
You either have the voltage too high for the coil or you're holding the button too long/too often. It's also possible the juice you are vaping is too thick to really wick well.
Without more specific info on what you're using, there's no way to be more specific, but it's one of those reasons.

Are you using dark juice? Dark juice does this which is why I try to stay away from it. If switching devices seems to change the problem then it's an issue of using too high of voltage. Just because two different devices say the same voltage doesn't mean that's what they are giving.
Wait is this a carto tank or a clearomizer?
If it is a carto tank then do NOT dry burn it. The results will be gross. Just replace the carto.
If it is a clearomizer then yes a rinse -> dry burn -> rinse will help (second rinse is to get rid of the ash from the dry burn)
Sigelei tank or battery? Is this the first tank or have you refilled it and if so how many times? As Stars&Bars asked, type of juice?
Can the juice inside the tank get contaminated once it has a bad burnt taste? I'm thinking it does.
ERmm, Signal, if you keep vapeing it then ya, it can get contaminated by the yucky taste. On the rare occasions I get a burnt taste, I stop and reload!! Safest measure.
That is, in part, the direction I was trying to explore with the questions I asked. The easiest way to tell would be to take the juice straight out of that tank and put it in one that you know isn't having issues.
Well yeah I had to dump the juice. It (to me) became contaminated. Sucks and a waste of good juice.
Take it apart and clean out the gunk off the coil by rinsing then dryburning. Have a look at the coil inside after you clean it up and see if the coil is evenly spaced, sunk down into the base like a hammock or the end loops have a high spot. All of those can cause you to have a bad experience and they are all simple fixes.
Pulse dryburn to just as the coil glows to see if it glows evenly, get a pin or tweezers and move wires around a bit and do it again till your happy with the glow, the coil should glow all at once not one side or just the center couple wraps. Carefully lift up the coil a bit so it sits level and also lift up each loop a bit. Once you see inside and do it you'll find that almost every stock coil needs a bit of repair before using it, its best and easiest to do when its new and not had any juice yet.
Make sure the flavor wick is long enough to go from side to side, some protanks and evods the flavor wicks is too short and it floods and leaks. Take a old top wick head and cut the wicks off and use those..trim if necessary.
Once you can smell the wick is burn't after you've dryburned it then chances are its toast, you gotta sence the vape lagging beforehand and clean it before you burn it and the coil will last more than just a few days. I can get a couple weeks off a coil as long as you don't burn the juice into the silica wick.
Any coil from any atty isn't plug and play, they require some simple DIY so you get the best lifespan and vape off of them. Those who just plunk them in, vape a few and then wonder why its such a crappy vape are just asking to get throat burn, dryhits, flooding and leaking and blaming the juice when its the atty's coil, its takes only a few minutes but you will reap the rewards of fantastic vape quality.
Building your own coils is the best way for you to realize that Quality Control in manufactures is non extistant.
I been building my own coils and get weeks off my coils with the proper maintance and by not burning the juice into the wick material.

Okay, that tells me whatever happened either started in the wick (or filler if it is a carto-tank, you never answered that question) or quickly moved into it. If it is a carto, replacing it is the only thing that will work. If it not you may need to clean it the way others have mentioned. I had a stardust that needed cleaning before first use. I discovered that the hard way. Sometimes there is a residue on some parts that came from the manufacturing process. That is why some people opt to thoroughly clean a brand new delivery device.

I rebuilt the tank. Everything cleaned. I installed 2MM silica wick, wrapped 32Ga Kanthal six times (Three - space- three) and torched it all evenly, with no coil touching each other or the sides. I took another piece of 2MM wick, pulled out some strands to make it close to a 1MM wick to add on top as a flavor wick Ends installed correctly and everything is high and tight. 2.3 Ohms.
I'm at work now so I cannot put juice in and test it.
My Mods are a iTaste SVD and a Zmax. I have two IMR18650 batteries. One is a Efest, the other a AW.
