It happens to me from time to time (vaping for 2+years) and I find eating something like chips or dry cereal makes it go away. But everyone is different.

Yeah I was hoping eating/drinking stuff, or even cough drops, would help it go away. Not the case, unfortunately ><

What tank and coils are you using and what power? Have you tried different flavors?
BlueMoods Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran
