Some of the capsules have a burnt taste...has anyone else experienced this as well and should I throw them out?

I have never had this experience with the capsules. If the seal was broken when you got them then throw it out. If not, how are you tasting them when they should be swallowed (don't hold them on your tongue) not chewed. You should be taking them with meals, maybe the food aftertaste made them taste strange? I never have tasted anything strange and I have been taking them for a year. Sometimes when you are not feeling well things will taste strange. In any case throw out when you are not sure and try again.

How are you getting a "burnt taste" ? I swallow them with other pills with water and notice to taste other than that of the water.

There was some powder residue on my bottle, but not nearly as much as yours is. It's possible that a few of the capsules were crushed en-route. I would exchange it.

Hi, we've ordered two bottles, none showed up melted, but they were a bit squished. I bet they would give you a new bottle if you told Amazon CS, they're amazing. One thing my wife says, is that the gummies are moist while in the bottle.

I'm not a 100% certain what your issue is. Are you saying that your device is broken after having run a cycle in vinegar? If so, vinegar is not that acidic and it shouldn't damage the product, so trash it, it's probably defective. No reason to risk a fire. That's a bummer if your machine is busted. I have had mine for a couple months now, and I have never detected a plastic taste. If the taste is the only thing wrong with it, try using a different kind of coffee, or tea. I usually use a breakfast blend from starbucks, or loose leaf earl grey. I have noticed that cheap/generic coffee can make a burnt plastic/popcorn taste when using a hot drip coffee maker. You get all sorts of weird tastes out of generic brand coffee. Hopefully the machine isn't broken, but if it is, upgrade to a better one. This unit makes me uncomfortable due to it's lack of an automatic shut off feature. My OCD (not really) forces me to unplug the thing after every use to make sure that it's turned off, otherwise, I worry that I may have forgotten to turn off the heater element. Turned around a couple times on my way to work because of second guessing myself :-(

They may have been left out in the sun or temps changed drastically. I would ask for an exchange. I have never had a problem with any supplements on amazon.

It happens to me when I have them out of the container and in something like a plastic baggie for an extended period of time. I think it has to do with exposure to air. I'm not sure that it hurts the pills... If anything it might make them less potent? But if you leave them in the airtight container it should be fine.

I'm guessing you're wanting to ask the seller, because each bag is different. As for mine, it was within date (still had about 6 months) but still tasted bad. It was burnt.

You know, I didn't notice that. Sorry. I still use mine. Maybe it's just because the ingredients may not be as strong or active after it has been opened or risk of getting an infection. I just find them soothing for my ears. They probably have to put some kind of expiration date on it. Hope this helps.

I think they are a "0" or a "00"You must take them in a full stomach- be warned! If you feel a burning- take a 2oz shot of water and 1/4 tsp baking soda- that will help

No, that is not normal. Mine did not have a burning smell. You might want to contact the seller.

I personally like the capsules. They last longer than the liquid. And work just as well. I hope this helps.

Yes mine are also capsules now- why the change? Is the shape and size the only change?

Honestly, had just been remarking to someone who can't stand B vit smell that these have/had no smell... They are capsules, so there's no taste that you'll notice. however, I'm paranoid about putting capsules in my system bc they say some don't get digested, really, so I empty it out in my mouth, a little 'bitter', but then I drink down w water. Also, I put them in a smoothie, again, I can't tell that it's in there and they make me feel good, all in and all, they're pretty good for the money. :) (I say this, bc I'd rather a raw or would rather a liquid b complex, but the liquids taste awful!)...

I also just received my second bottle. They don't have any strong smell or taste, they are just like the first bottle. I think I would ask for a replacement if the smell/taste is that noticeably different, that doesn't sound right. The lot number on my bottle is 1708335 1236 and use by date is 03/2019. Hope that helps!

I don't have the capsules, mine is the syrup and I use a dropper to take it sublingual. From what i know you , you shouldn't open capsules, its best to take them as they are. I have that problem too but since its only one pill twice a day, I don't think about it and just put some water in my mouth first, then the pill and then swallow it all.

There should be an expiration date some where on the bottle. Is their a label covering it. As long as the tablets don't look or spell strange, they're probably okay.... I did get a couple of bottles that they had put a white sticker over the date in error... hope this helps...
