Experiencing a burnt taste when vaping can be frustrating, but it’s a common issue that can often be resolved with some simple troubleshooting. Whether you’re using the popular IGET Bar Plus 6000 puffs or any other device from IGET New Zealand, understanding the causes and solutions to this problem will help you maintain an enjoyable vaping experience.
Why Does My E-Cigarette Taste Burnt?
A burnt taste while vaping usually indicates that something is wrong with your device or how it’s being used. Here are some of the most common reasons:
- Dry Hits: This occurs when you take a puff without enough e-liquid in the coil or pod.
- Old Coil: Over time, the coil can degrade and start producing a burnt taste.
- Improper Priming: Failing to properly prime a new coil or pod can lead to dry hits and a burnt taste.
- High Power Settings: Using too high a wattage setting can cause the coil to burn out quickly.
- Dirty Device: Accumulated residue or debris can affect the taste of your vape.
How to Fix a Burnt Taste in Your IGET Device
Here are some practical steps you can take to resolve the burnt taste issue in your IGET Bar Plus 6000 puffs or any other device from IGET New Zealand.
1. Prime Your Coil or Pod
Priming ensures that the wick inside the coil is fully saturated with e-liquid before you start vaping. For devices like the IGET Bar Plus 6000 puffs, follow these steps:
- Drip a few drops of e-liquid directly onto the exposed wick inside the coil or pod.
- Allow the device to sit for about 5-10 minutes after filling it with e-liquid.
- Take a few slow, gentle puffs without firing the device to further saturate the wick.
2. Check and Refill E-Liquid Levels
Running low on e-liquid can lead to dry hits and a burnt taste. Always ensure your device has enough e-liquid:
- Regularly check the e-liquid level in your IGET Bar Plus body.
- Refill the tank or replace the pod before it runs completely dry.
3. Replace Old Coils or Pods
Over time, coils and pods wear out and need to be replaced. If you notice a persistent burnt taste, it might be time to change your coil or pod:
- For devices like the IGET Bar Plus 6000 puffs, replacing the pod is straightforward and recommended every few weeks or as needed.
- Ensure you purchase authentic replacement pods from reliable sources such as IGET New Zealand.
4. Adjust Power Settings
Using too high a power setting can cause the coil to overheat and burn out quickly. If your device allows for power adjustments, try lowering the wattage:
- Start at a lower wattage and gradually increase until you find a comfortable setting that doesn’t produce a burnt taste.
- For fixed-wattage devices like the IGET Bar Plus 6000 puffs, avoid chain vaping to prevent overheating.
5. Clean Your Device Regularly
Accumulated residue or dirt can affect the taste of your vape. Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal performance:
- Disassemble your device and clean the tank or pod with warm water or isopropyl alcohol (if appropriate).
- Ensure all parts are thoroughly dried before reassembling.
6. Use High-Quality E-Liquids
Lower-quality e-liquids can contain impurities that build up on the coil faster, leading to a burnt taste. Opt for reputable brands available through IGET New Zealand:
- Choose e-liquids that are free from harmful additives and have been tested for quality.
- Store your e-liquids properly to maintain their freshness and effectiveness.
Preventing Future Burnt Tastes
To avoid experiencing a burnt taste in the future, consider these preventive measures:
- Prime New Coils: Always prime new coils or pods before use.
- Avoid Chain Vaping: Take breaks between puffs to allow the coil to cool down.
- Use Quality E-Liquids: Invest in high-quality e-liquids to reduce residue buildup.
- Clean Regularly: Establish a regular cleaning routine for your device.
