Ok so I wanted to try one of my new flavors today in my kanger evod. I washed the tank out with warm water and dried it very good. Now i put the juice into the tank and when I went to smoke it it tasted AWFUL, like burning plastic, I changed the coil and it still tasted like that, I EVEN WIPED THE BATTERY OFF AND IT STILL TASTES LIKE THAT HELPPPP PLEASE

I dont recommend using isopropyl alcohol - but PGA (Pure Grain Alcohol) is great to soak overnight if there is a flavor you are having issues removing from a tank. A semi-small group of folks use the IA but it can ruin the finish on your tanks and if you do not remove it thoroughly its pretty toxic. In general, hot water usually does the trick.

However, I am unclear if you are saying the juice is gross or if you are getting burnt hits? What is the juice and what is the atty?

I agree about the juice. If acidic it could be reacting with the tank.

It may be that the flavor needs to age a little if it is brand new, or you may not like the flavor. To confirm it is not your evod or a coil - rinse in hot water and dry, fill with a flavor you know you like and give it a test drive.

Sounds like that flavor should live somewhere dark for a few weeks and then be revisited :)

Do you have a vv/vw battery? If so try lowering the volts or watts to the minimum and see if continues.

Thats what I thought to but being currently deployed this flavor has lived somewere dark for most of its life. The MFG date on the bottle is 01/17/14 and i just got it 2/1/14 so idk.

I had the same issue with the EVOD clearos. I bought a bunch of them and opened one, tried everything to get that plastic taste out of it and couldn't. With other plastic clearos, I never tasted the plastic so I thought these would be fine too. I ended up selling the ones I never opened here in the classies.

Mt Baker makes their juice to order so CreepyLady is spot on with her advice. Let it age a week or two and try it again.

Oh lordie....... the MB Police will be all over this one, "...I was never a fan of mbv though, they are where I started and I've learned that most of the time quality goes hand in hand with price."!:ohmy:

I too tried MB "fluids" - in Kanger T3S tanks - same composition as an EVOD without the stainless outer ribs and a tad larger I believe and compared the MB to my local shoppe so I had an idea about their juice. I 'strongly disliked' the 'juice' and promptly renamed the particular tobacco flavor, "Burning Inner-Tube In An Oil-Can".:ohmy: To ME it's an opinion formed by MY taste-buddies - exactly the same way those who love it do. I let it sit - open - airing out - seeping - ridding the fluid of the aroma I found 'nasty' for three weeks - it did no good. Again - for ME.:D

Pull the MB Police back - it's as honest an opinion as I can give. Price - OK. Satisfaction - Nope. It's probably, "just the old guy" - he can't appreciate whatever the 'lovers' see in that particular 'juice'. Now ........ I simply stick with that which I like and make every 'review' very clear; it's just an 'opinion' and let it go at that - good or bad.

I KNOW every juice vendor cannot possibly receive ONLY great reviews; they just publish the positive and dump the critical ones. In my opinion - of course.

Hope you get more juice soon AND THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE.

Weird. I enjoyed EVOD tanks when I used them. Did you try a new coil head with the same results. I was never a fan of mbv though, they are where I started and I've learned that most of the time quality goes hand in hand with price. Most of the time.

If someone got upset over someone not liking a certain vendor that's just crazy. Everybody has their own taste and opinion of juices. I thought their tea flavor was pretty good, but I never found another flavor that didn't taste like chemicals to me. Key word being me. Killer juices taste spot on to their description, even if I didn't like that flavor, but someone else might think they taste like chemicals.

G2 Drunk Monkey has been the smoothest juice I've tried. Still trying to get my hands on some Alice in Vapeland.
