I'm so new to this, only 2 weeks in. My first coil may not have been primed well enought. I didn't notice a lot of flavor, it was more airy. My second coil I was sure to prime it and let it sit for a while before vaping but it must have been bad. It burned my throat so bad and did not taste good at all.
