Mid-Day Flavor Loss
So you found a juice you love, the smell is amazing, the flavor is intense. everything about it has you grinning with pleasure.
Halfway through the day you notice you juice tastes like shit, or nothing at all…..what the fuck is happening! noooooo!
There are a lot of causes of this mysterious problem and eliminating them one by one from your world is only going to make your vape life better.
One of the biggest culprits is dehydration. Vaping takes moisture out of your body and if you don’t replace it your ability to taste and smell is going to diminish because the mucous membrane of your mouth and sinuses is dry and not functioning at full capacity.
Solution; drink more water! Especially you cloud chasers!
Also there is the simple fact that being exposed to the same smell over prolonged periods causes your brain to stop paying any attention to this signal. Just like how you’re crazy neighbor with the 18 cats never notices the smell of overflowing litter boxes, but it knocks you off your feet as soon as the door opens. This happens to us while we vape too, after chain vaping the same flavor for hours and hours our body figures we don’t need to be told that smell is there anymore and sort of blots it out, lets that data fade to the background.
A trick professional taste testers use is to keep a jar of fresh ground coffee nearby and open the lid and take a whiff now and then. There is some fancy chemical interaction that helps reset our nasal sensitivity with coffee in particular. The actual science wasn’t explained to me but i was shown this trick by a connoisseur of wines and cheeses and it works great for vaping. As a juice maker i test a lot flavors and i wouldn’t be able to do my job properly without the coffee ground trick, my senses get overwhelmed by about flavor variation #5 in a row.
Combining those two tricks by drinking lots of coffee is a great and enjoyable way to keep your flavors tasting strong throughout the day. Don’t neglect your water intake though!
There you go, a new reason to combine nicotine and caffiene into one happy activity, as if you needed it!
~vape on!
