Feel for ya’, been there, done that. I found that tiramisu tastes best when left out of the recipe.

Lol! Best used at around 0.00001% or less to taste! I love the actual
desert, can taste the dark chocolate. Somehow overpoweringly nasty with
everything I’ve tried to mix it with. Thought it was just me.

You might also consider changing brands (though no idea which one you’re using/referring to at the moment).
They’re not all created equal you know…

So i’ve heard. I think , however, my main issue was mixing it WAY too
strong to try it out(like 5%) lol. Live and learn.

I think I’ve finally got how much cotton makes a good wick sorted – short answer is it takes about half what my intuition kept saying – Basically I resigned myself to the mess and wasted fluid and just kept shaving down the wicking material until it leaked, then started over, stopping right before it leaked the first time. Then I did it again to see if I could succeed, and again, and again. After 3 shots in a row without having to trim anything, success!
I have learned how to wick! The key? Just barely enough cotton to touch the bottom of the well, not sit on it,and definitely not enough to coil up in any way at all. And it can look way too thin in the coil and still be fine
Also a neat shortcut to get it right, stuff the cotton down the well, then pull it thru the bottom of the well and trim it until the scissors physically can’t reach it without fitting inside the well itself.
Sure it’s obvious to everyone else, but I didn’t get it from the videos I’ve seen because everyone zooms in and has tiny hands so the perspective is all wrong from real life and big hands. So experiments are kinda fun, I smile.

Interesting. Does that actually get the tiny insides clean?

It did! This is actually the first time I’ve tried washing them in the dishwasher. I just had so damn many to clean that I figured I’d give it a shot. It even got the droppers clean which I was pretty sure was a long shot. I stuck them down into the little holes in the bottom of the sliverware basket. Absolutely zero juice or smell left!

I would still do a distilled water bath though. But that’s me.

I totally get it. I don’t know how DJLsb gets anything to work well. I’m sure he has it down, but if I try to use half the cotton he does, I get nothing but dry, flavorless hits. I went about the same route you did. I ended up not rolling my cotton beyond the very end to thread the coils. Using about 1/4 to 1/3 the cotton he and some others use. I’m finally getting great flavor across the board on my attys. Once filled, non of my atty’s leak. Having said all that, I have a few with juice control that I fill off the mod with a damp rag handy. There are a few that will initially push liquid out during the filling process. I would rather have that and flavor.
Are you sure he is using cotton?

Ya, he clearly states “Japanese organic cotton” on every build video he produces. You can also clearly see him cutting the strips off of the pads. The only thing I’ve thought is maybe he uses a very thin pad? I have received some pads with atties that are very thin. The cotton I buy has pretty thick pads.
