There are tons of variables involved in something like that. So it's hard to read that and say for sure it's the cotton at fault but in general, cotton plays a relatively small role in flavor compared to the other factors. It is worth pointing out though, since you said this is your first rta, if you touch on the cotton a lot it's going to have a funky taste from the finger oils etc. I never leave a section of cotton I've touched in the final wick piece if I can help itAfter vaping for a while I got my first RTA set up. The TFV8 Cloud Beast. The problem is, the taste is unlike anything I have experienced before. I imagine the cotton it came with is to blame. It is supposedly "organic", but that doesn't necessarily mean Japanese, right? Am I correct that the cotton is the problem? If so, what do you recommend? I chain vape at 30ml per day if that matters.
Thanks!
That kind of goes with what I'm saying. I've used a lot of cottons before, and if you make sure to avoid touching it (or use gloves) I never get that "cotton taste" but he said he was new to rebuildables. Most newer builders don't know about that. Even most experienced people as well, they just think their build needs to "break in"
Cotton bacon is just easier to use than cotton pads, like rayon. But as long as you're using unbleached, untreated cotton and it works for you, go for it!
I tried commercial cotton when it first became popular. Tasted like sucking on a t-shirt to me. I went back to silica. Then 2 years later I tried Muji cotton pads. Now that's all I use.

For a premium cotton, I have to agree. Far better than Cotton Bacon and I still buy it now and again.
Thanks! I will start using it immediately. The cost isn't a huge factor. A little goes a long way, plus I make my own juices from recipes online to cut costs. How many dual coil builds do you think I could get per bag though? I am curious. It says each one has 3.5 feet of cotton, but I don't know the width of the cotton.
