I've been vaping the same juice for a couple days now and want to switch flavors. My question is the coil is still good is there a way to store it? Do you clean it? Or is it just trash? It is an Atlantis aspire coil. The flavor im using is unicorn milk and im switching to a red bull flavor so I can't mix them.

gandymarsh Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran

I would rinse them in warm/hot water, let them dry for a day or two then put them in a film container or ziplock bag.

You can clean them and replace the wick if you want. Just one of the vids on Youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6ZBh4X8wQo

After I rinse them and store them will I be able to use with any flavor or will they still taste like the previous flavor I used then with?

bacc.vap Vaping Master Verified Member ECF Veteran

If your going to use a different flavor It'd be best to remove the wick, rinse it out, do a dry burn on the coil, and then rewick with cotton.

Cloudmann Ultra Member Verified Member ECF Veteran

Depends on the previous flavor. Some flavors really stick around. Bad offenders include anything with licorice or anise. Stronger flavors just tend to want to move in permanently.

Best way to clean them is letting them soak in vodka (or any other cheap white alcool) for a night or so and then rinse them and let them dry out. Works marvel on Atlantis coils .
