Hey there fellow vapers,
I tried a search for this topic but couldn't find anything on it. I am referring to flavor ghosting.
Let's say I go through 20ml of a beautiful berry filled glazed donut vape like the flawless aftermath clone by DUNKNDRIP and I then want to blast 20ml of apw's Mother's Unicorn Milk using the same coil. How do you guys go about swapping up the flavors in your tanks (I'm using a Uwell Crown and a Kanger Subtank Mini)?
I really don't want to have to put a new coil in every time I change flavor, that could get expensive!!
Since no one gave you a real answer, here you go: vape the tank dry until the flavor dulls and you can see it dry through the wick holes. Then put in a tad bit of an unflavored base (just vg+pg) and vape a couple hits of that. Finally, put in the new flavor!
I don't use tanks often, but when I do, I prefer dos equis... I mean I just run 1 full tank of the flavor I want through the coils after emptying the tank and then it seems pretty well primed with the new flavor. This is why you need a dripper if you're getting in to mixing! You can basically get your new flavor after 1-2 re-drips unless the previous one was a lingerer.
Hey good buddy i think you'll have to either start building your own coils and just replace the cotton, or get a second tank. I gave many tanks now and it makes it easy to swap flavours. Even though I rarely do.
Thanks mate. I was looking at a Limitless RDTA the other night. They end up saving a bit of money and are do they give a better vape? I think it could be fun getting into DIY coils.
That's a very fancy looking tank. I like making my own coils, I don't know from experience if they give a better vape as I started by building my own. I think I've heard that it does.
If you're concerned with money I have tried many tanks and my favourite is the billow v3. The clone on fasttech is 10. It's perfect imo. Good luck
Run the tank dry, pull the wick(s), and after you remove the old cotton but before inserting the new, burn all the old juice/residue off of the coil(s).
If you're using prebuilt coils, then you'll just have to run it as dry as you can, and either use an unflavored juice in between flavors, as u/Krieggman said, or just deal with the mix. I recently tried a Spearmint juice and that sucker hung around. It was almost two full tanks of another flavor before it was completely gone. Luckily the mix wasn't too bad.
Well some stores will sell you the famous flavor eraser! Spoiler.... It's just vg they are selling you! Don't waste your money... But if you really want to I'll sell you a bottle lol
Swap coils, and when you get home give the "old" one a soak in isopropyl or vodka then rinse and soak in water a few times and set out to dry.
Keep a couple of heads in rotation, and they'll last quite a bit longer.
DO NOT vape Isopropyl. That will likely make you go blind.
lol what? I never said anything like that. It's a good cleaner because it evaporates off without leaving any residue, harmful or otherwise.
Soak in alcohol, set aside to dry, then reuse.
Besides, the quarter-milliliter a wick holds wouldn't be enough to hurt you-- you'd cough instantly. (As an aside, even crappy homemade moonshine doesn't contain enough of the more-dangerous alcohols to actually cause blindness; every recorded case involved deliberate consumption or adulteration with methanol, propanol, etc.)
