Behind the tempting vapor and captivating aroma in the world of vaping, sometimes hidden problems may be more complex than just dazzling smoke. Burn taste has long been a bothersome mystery for vape enthusiasts. For some, it's just a temporary hurdle in the pleasure of inhaling various flavors.

Have you ever felt a 'dry' sensation in your throat when vaping? You surely feel uncomfortable because that 'dry' sensation is caused by a burnt taste entering your throat. Well, that's what's called Burn Taste.

What is Burn Taste?

Among vapers, burn taste is usually described as a burnt taste with a stale, charred, and acrid smell. So, this burn taste sensation is often what makes your throat and other vapers' throats feel dry, even causing coughing and a desire to vomit.

Causes of Burn Taste

Usually, the cause of burn taste is dry cotton due to chain vaping (inhaling vape continuously without pause), incorrect cotton installation (uneven thickness), using too high wattage or potentiometer, firing for too long (very long puff), dirty coils (minimal maintenance), hotspots in the coil layer, broken cotton inside the coil, and too low VG content in the e-liquid.

Difference Between Burn Taste and Dry Hit?

Actually, many also interpret burn taste and dry hit as the same thing. In terms of sensation and stale taste, these two things are the same, but if we look more closely, burn taste can occur on wet cotton, unlike dry hit which is only felt when the cotton is too dry.

Furthermore, burn taste itself also has its own distinct taste sensation that makes it different from a dry hit; the sensation produced by burn taste is more like burning and heat.

Does Burn Taste Cause Spitback?

More precisely, spitback causes burn taste. Burn taste does not always cause spitback, even if the cotton used is still wet and not broken. But spitback is what causes burn taste. Usually, spitback occurs due to incorrect cotton and coil settings, which results in the e-liquid not being properly vaporized.

E-liquid that is not properly vaporized will turn into hot liquid bursts, and eventually, the liquid will rise with the vapor. This liquid rising with the vapor will splash onto parts of the mouth like the lips, tongue, and roof of the mouth.

If that happens, the areas affected by the hot liquid splashes will often cause soreness in the mouth, and can even lead to canker sores. So, these kinds of things are categorized as burn taste.

Is Burn Taste Dangerous?

If you ask if it's dangerous, the answer is no. So, is it safe? Not exactly. Then what? So, in reality, burn taste is not dangerous, but if you frequently experience burn taste, your vaping experience will likely not be enjoyable. In addition, burn taste can also be very dangerous because what you inhale is smoke from burnt cotton, not vapor.

Because if burn taste comes from burnt cotton, there is a possibility that the resulting smoke contains dangerous gases from the coil, and if you too often experience burn taste from spitback, you will get many canker sores in your mouth, making it difficult to eat and drink.
