I like all the great tips here and will offer one more. If you are having a particularly bad episode get yourself a jar of unrefined coconut oil. The refined works okay too but the unrefined has a more pleasant flavor. Take a tablespoon of the solid coconut oil and let it melt in your mouth on your tongue. Try to hold this in for about 2 minutes after it fully melts then spit it out. Do this a couple of times a day for a couple of days and I think you will find it really speeds up the efficacy of the other methods mentioned here. And the person who recommended coconut water is spot on. It is a fantastic hydration drink and tasty to boot without a bunch of artificial crap and sweeteners.

I usually introduce liberal amounts of hot sauce into my life and that seems to keep vapor's tongue at bay. Course, hot sauce is usually my cure for most everything.

Same here, I grow ghost chili's for my sauce. Excellent on chicken...

I just bought a kanger t3 and it did helped with my vapers tongue!!! not completly out but beginning to see the light again!

I've not heard of a Kanger T3 doing anything for vaper's tongue. Though I will say that in my opinion that T3's are a pretty good clearomizer and that in my experience they handle higher VG juices better than other clearomizers. (Please note I've not tried every clearomizer out there--my experience is limited, I'm still a pretty new to vaping.)

I did notice though that as I've slowly been over coming my vaper's tongue (I had a rough patch where I couldn't taste anything at all). that I did notice that on some juices using standard resistance heads gave me more flavor while other times using low resistance heads did.

You are right Abe I did get a little bit of taste with the t3 better that with my other clearo but it was a false positive as today I still can't taste any liquids. The only one mildly can detect is a menthol one that I hate and can't seem to get rid of the taste from the clearo even though I've clean it 2 times

Well in all honesty from my personal experience, and the experiences of others that they have shared it seems that vaper's tongue is just a stage people go through. We have to remember that smoking basically kills off the sense of taste and it takes time for it to come back.

I will also say that I'm not sure if this is vaper tongue related but I have noticed that when I'm drinking a coffee drink my sense of taste goes way down, but doesn't do this if I'm drinking something other than coffee like say a black tea or a green tea or a Kool-Aid/Crystal Light type drink. I've not tried this with alcoholic beverages though as I don't drink alcohol usually (though I'm by no means a teetotaler).

So I think iam going through this now or on the brink of it as juices that tasted stronger yesterday and the last few weeks don't seem near as tasty today. :(. I kept thinking maybe I was not grabbing the right bottle etc...
I don't drink water but I go through a ton of tea a day which is as we know mostly water....will that suffice for hydration? As I assume the water is for hydration.

I found that lemon juice directly on the tongue helped, as did drinking a metric ton of water! I stay away from alcohol laden mouthwashes when this happens, too, since it seem to just make it worse for me. Someone had replied to my thread that was a chef last week when I posted about vaper's tongue. They commented that you need a palate cleanser. Excellent excuse for lemon sorbet!

Any thoughts on this ^^
Why do folks say drinks without caffeine. I was hoping my tea since it is 95% water should do the trick for hydration?? I drink a ton of it! Sweetened with Splenda.

I am going through this right now and it sucks! The only thing I can get to taste half way right is icefire by dnd vapors. Love that stuff by the way!

haha I literally just came to the forum to talk about this. I've been vaping for four days alternating between RY4 and coffee mainly, and yesterday night I noticed it tasted off. I was worried the atomizer was wrecked at first. This morning the taste was still gone, but it returned for the rest of the day, until this evening and now I can hardly taste it at all! Changed carts, cleaned everything, switched flavours and still nothing! I just tried a little vanilla, vaping it from different parts of my mouth, and on one side I got a little taste again, but I tried once more and it was gone! So frustrating.
