Burnt taste?

so today I got my joyetech egrip 2, I followed all directions and then I let my juice soak up for at least an hour to make sure I didn't get any dry hits, but it taste really burnt..... is it because my liquid is 100% vg juice... or what is it... I tried all the coils and it still taste burnt... this is really making me upset because I just sold my old one so I can get this one and it doesn't work right! so please need some help!

What are the details of your setup, coil resistance, wattage setting, etc.

If your settings are too high, then you could easily burn the juice. If you really burned the juice, then you have a 2 part problem.

So part one of the problem ... *if* you burned your juice with the first coil, then it will always taste burnt no matter how many brand new coils you put in it. Once it is burned, the only way to get rid of that taste is dump and refill the tank with fresh juice. Part two of the problem, once you have put a fresh coil in contaminated juice, it will likely taste burnt forever, because the contaminated juice soaks into the fresh wicking.

You can try soaking the coils in PGA to help reduce the taste, I've had some limited success with it. Do NOT use rubbing alcohol ... it is topical ONLY.

The Egrip and the stock coils are not suited for max VG juice, 50/50 works best. The juice channel/holes are too small for efficient wicking of max VG.
