Arrrrrg! The Dreaded "Vaper's Tongue"

[vuJim]

Vaped a lower-vapor-volume 70/30 juice, using my GS-Tank with a 1.5Ω coil, all last evening. Noticed my mouth kind of dried out by the end of the evening. I've noticed that, with 70/30 juices, before. I'm beginning to think me and PG don't get along well. Now, this morning, neither that, the different 70/30 juice in my Mini Protank 3 nor the max VG in my Super Tank Mini taste like much of anything.

Bah!

It'll pass. You just stunned your tastebuds. Vape menthol or anise flavored eliquid for a few days.

 

[Huckleberried]

Yep

Oh, I know it'll pass. It's just a bit annoying, is all. My taste buds aren't totally down for the count. The max VG blueberry in my TSTM is astonishingly flavourful, and I can still just taste the edges of it.

For me lots of water, and vaping no flavor for a day or 2 fixes it everytime.

STAYING hydrated is key. I get it pretty bad if I'm sampling a lot of test flavors. Hydration and time are the things that have worked for me. I've tried every trick in the book. None of them worked.

@Huckleberried: I think you nailed one of the mistakes I made, last night. Usually I drink a lot of water. Last night: No so much, IIRC.

I know whisky will clear my palate, but it's a bit early in the day for that

+1 for hydration. Also when that happens to me, I switch to a flavor profile that is the polar opposite of what I have been vaping. For example going from fruity to a cinnamon or a mint / menthol, etc. Best of luck.

When I get vape tongue, i brush my teeth (tongue especially) and smell some ground coffee.
Usually works well for me.

In order to avoid vapor's tongue, I switch between 4-6 juices during the day.
