If your vape tastes burnt, it's likely due to the wick being dry or the coil being worn out. Continuing to use it in this state can worsen the taste and potentially harm the device. To fix this, first try priming the coil by adding a few drops of e-liquid directly to it, then let it soak for about 10 minutes. If the burnt taste persists, you may need to replace the coil. Regular maintenance and coil replacement can prevent this issue from recurring.
