Why Does the Mint IQOS Tobacco Stick Taste Bitter?
A bitter taste from mint IQOS tobacco sticks may be caused by overheating of flavorings or residue affecting heat transfer. Thorough cleaning of the holder is recommended.
The IQOS operating temperature is around 350° for heating. However, the result can be a bitter taste when used. There are several possible reasons for this taste: 1. The temperature may be too high, causing the mint flavoring to be overheated and produce a bitter taste. 2. Tobacco fragments or other debris may be affecting heat transfer or heat detection. It is recommended to clean the heating blade more thoroughly.
