Nginx Server Caching in Chrome

I'm setting up a local development server on my Mac using nginx in place of Apache. I'm basically there, but having one issue.

I have multiple web apps, and each are set up using sites-available and sites-enabled - no issues here. The issue is that my browser of choice is chrome, and there's some weird caching going on that is causing the first-visited app to load each time. For example, I have:

site1.dev site2.dev

If I load site1.dev, it loads without issue. If I load site2.dev, it's automatically redirected to site1.dev. I see this as a caching issue because if I use chrome's Incognito mode, I don't have the same issues (nor do I have them in Firefox).

Does anyone know what could be going on here? Or what the solution could be? Thanks in advance!

The solution is to open Chrome's Dev tools (right click, inspect element), click the network tab, and disable caching. Reload the first url, and try the second url. If there is no redirect, disable caching, and the issue is resolved.

Chrome only redirects from cache if the page was initially loaded with caching enabled.
