Im back in the honeymoon period with GVC after a brief affair with some tobacco flavours but it just wrecks my wick in no time at all. I remember Grant recommending a certain type of wick but cant remember which. I have a mini nova and also find huge inconsistencies with flavour from one head to the next. Any help appreciated

The ingredients in vanilla custard recipes, whether Grant's or home brewed, do gunk up any coils and wicks pretty quickly. On a mini nova a regular clean and dry burn helps prolong the atty head. As to the variance between heads, I think the only answer is to re-wick them ourselves, then we can get the consistency we require.

DIY mixing or re-wicking?

In a Kayfun 2.1 GVC will last me about 4 days before the wick is wrecked, same with the 3.1 and the GG stuff. No wick is going to gunk up in less time than any other. As oneday says, rinse and dry burn or be prepared to change wicks regularly,
