So last week I was having a problem with a burnt flavor. Last night I decided it was probably the tank, so I emptied my other tank that had ice menthol in it, and previously watermelon. Rinsed it out with warm water several times, then shook it an let it air dry on the counter for 2 hours.

I then filled it up with a coffee juice I bought recently, and now the burnt taste is gone. However now the problem im having is im only getting watermelon flavor with a hint of menthol in my vapes. I would expect it to take a few vapes to clear out the menthol/watermelon but ive gone through almost a tank and a half of coffee and still cant taste anything but watermelon with a hint of menthol. Every once in a while I get a small hint of coffee.

I am using a clero disposable tank with two wicks in it. The wicks look good. IE not burnt looking and any junk on them. When I purchased the coffee flavor he hooked my tank up to a VV battery and it showed my tank was pulling 3.3 volts? or ohms? not sure, but it was 3.3.

Im getting a very good amount of vape, but am getting frustrated with the flavors. Its still not as bad as analogs, I wont be going back, but would like to really enjoy my flavors.

Should I look at getting some new tanks from a known brand? What brands would I be best getting, and what ohm rating should I get? There is another shop local to me that has the kanger product and a few others. But before I spend more money on something I want to get something I know is going to fix the problem.

Here's a Kanger Protank (Kanger Protank Pro Tank Glassomizer)

If you have an eGo battery, it's probably not providing enough voltage to really get the coffee flavor out of your juice with your current tank (the tank you have is probably 3.3 ohms).

The Kanger Protank is a bottom-coil design; which means the wick and coil set at the bottom of the tank. The wicks just barely protrude into the tank since they are on the bottom.

I would suggest that if you have an eGo battery, that you try the Kanger Evod. This is a bottom-coil clearomizer with eGo threading. They are smaller (and cheaper) than the Protank and perform similarly.

ETA:
The Kanger Evods have replaceable "heads" (wick/coil assembly) that come in 1.8 and 2.4 ohms; for coffee flavored juice, the 1.8 ohm would probably work best.

Indeed you did.......

Great news. I went to my local shop today and got me a new tank. Wow! What a difference a quality tank makes! Really pleased with my setup now. Also spoke to them about the juice they sell. They make all there juices in house and all are 50/50 blend but will customize to order. Lots of flavors, and they can add an extra shot of flavor, sweetener, or menthol. They also give a discount to military and teachers. 10ml for 7.50. Very very happy now.

mayday, thanks for the info. Im pretty sure the place im getting my tanks from right now are garbage and is a reason for most of the problems I am having. Does the kanger protank for 2 or 4 wicks on it? Also, what ohm rating does it run?
this may have been answered but since you asked me and i dont have time to read it all they come stock with 3 wicks i usually take out the 1st one though and the ohm varies. :toast:
