Japanese cotton no flavor

Per sXd....

Yes, KGD (and most likely it's similar competitors) is the best cotton I've ever used.

The most important thing to remember when using this type of cotton is to not densify the wick by twisting it.

You want to start by trimming (with the grain of the fibers) a width that is the width of or just a hair wider than your coil then only twist the tip in order to thread it in - leave the rest uncompressed.

I also sometimes just gently compress it to shape it but never twist a fat piece to make it smaller (denser) to fit in the coil.

Several rules of thumb:

1. With your mod standing on a stable surface (your desk or whatever) Thread in the twisted tip and grab the end. Now take your hand off the mod as you pull in the wick. If your mod moves it's too thick.

2. If you taste any cotton, even on the first hit it's too thick.

I'd say that is pretty much the trick...but with one more think...give the wick a good soaking before use.
