Are you using the same juice non stop? And try eating a lemon or lime. Its torture but helps me
I try to stay as hydrated as possible, wet taste buds seem to work better than dry ones.
It will come and go, I am new. I have my days. Cutting back if you can stand it as it may help.
Mouth wash for dry mouth, tongue scraper, Carrots clean the pallet, lots of water or gatorade and have strong flavor to switch to. I am not a menthol minty person but I have a couple I use when I am desperate.
I will also tell you something weird, chew up a multivitamin. Something about the bitterness woke my tongue up on a bad evening and I was at least able to taste sweet.

I've been rotating about 7 or 8 juice during the week. Definitely going to try the lemon. How much??
I don't think I've ever gotten it because I switch up my flavors too frequently to get tired of any one. However, I'd suggest you just vape unflavored until you get over it. It's cheaper than flavored juices and has a slightly sweet taste. Don't waste the good stuff.
I'll have to try that. Haven't yet but have heard good things about it.
I found that giving my tongue a thorough brush, with a fair amount of toothpaste followed by a long gargle with Listerine mouthwash works. 2 times a day, every day, problem solved...
I eat ginger regularly just to keep my pallet clean. It's just a general thing that I do, but I find I don't get vapers tongue because of it.
Try vaping unflavoured between flavours. I usually add unflavoured straight to whats left of a flavour in a tank when I tire of said flavour, and might repeat this until I can no longer taste the flavour. Doing this has a few benefits, one it saves you totally cleaning your tank and replacing wicks etc, two it makes the coils last longer, three you use less of the expensive flavoured ejuice, and four it gives your tounge a chance to re-aclimatise so you will taste your next flavour. Ive actually found by doing this that I am starting to prefer vaping unflavoured or heavily diluted flavours more and more often.
Yea I think I'll have to try the unflavored thing. A lot of my shops around here don't have unflavored. So basically just straight vg? Or what?
You could use straight vg, depends on your setup, as straight vg is thick and may not wick well. I use 50/50 vg/pg
There is my "theory".
Some flavorings (or flavorings components) kill some taste buds. Taste buds regenerate in about 10 days. Growing in hostile (for taste buds) vaping environment they develop some protective qualities, they become calloused. With calloused taste buds vaper needs more vapor to feel the same taste, vaper is buying more advanced equipment. So come grater assault on taste buds. New circle... Of course all it happens not in 10 days, but in much longer time period, but still...
