What Gives My Vape A Burnt Taste?

One of the most important parts of vaping is the taste, which is also one of the main differences between vaping and smoking. The flavor of cigarette smoke is really unpleasant, but this should never be the case with vaping. You should never taste anything burned, harsh, or “off,” so when your vape doesn’t taste right, you will likely experience an immediate feeling of anxiety.

If this is your first time vaping and you’ve never tasted anything other than a burned flavor from your device, you may feel particularly frightened. In this instance, it is crucial to resolve the issue, as your first vaping experience should always be positive. Otherwise, you may simply resume smoking.

In this post, we’ll explain why your vape tastes burned and walk you through the steps to resolve the problem.

What Makes a Vape Taste Burnt?

If your vape tastes burnt, you can’t fully diagnose the problem until you determine the root reason, so let’s start there. We’re presuming that every puff of your vape tastes burned. In other words, the problem is persistent as opposed to intermittent. You are aware that you can remedy the issue by replacing your pod or coil if you are an experienced vaper. Before you do so, however, you must determine why your vape tastes burnt if you wish to avoid the issue from happening again in the future.

There are two reasons why the flavor of your vapor may become permanently burned:
  • When you inhale, the coil overheats or dries out, which has led the cotton wick to catch fire. In this instance, vaping will produce an exceptionally unpleasant flavor, since you will really be experiencing cotton that has been burned.
  • E-liquid residue has accumulated on the heating surface of the coil. When you use your gadget, the residue has gotten quite thick and has begun to burn. In this situation, you will experience a “caramelized” or “burnt sugar” flavor that will gradually overpower your e-flavor. liquid’s

Whether your vape tastes burnt owing to e-liquid residue or a burned wick, the situation is permanent; changing the coil is the only solution. If you are weary of frequently replacing your device’s coil or pod, you must determine why this is occurring.

Why Does My Vape With A New Coil Taste Burnt?

The only way to remedy a vape that tastes permanently burnt is to replace the coil or pod. What should you do if, despite using a new coil, your vape still tastes burnt? In this instance, it is quite probable that the wick of your coil has a dry pocket. This occurs often for one of three reasons:

  • When inserting the coil, you did not prime it. Always apply a little amount of e-liquid on the cotton to enable complete absorption.
  • You immediately began vaping after attaching the coil. It requires several minutes for the wick to absorb all of the e-liquid. If you begin vaping shortly after coil installation, the wick may catch fire.
  • Your device’s wattage setting is incorrect for the inserted coil. Always begin at the low end of the coil’s recommended wattage range to minimize overheating and wick burning.
