How To Refill a Cart 

Here’s an in-depth look at the steps to follow when making carts with distillate.

One step: Add Distillate To The Mixing Vial

The first step when filling carts with distillate is using the empty vials for mixing the pure distillate and terpenes. Using the syringe, pour the pure distillate into the mixing vial. 

This process differs slightly from how to fill carts with wax. When working with wax, you’ll need to create a double boiler using a pot filled with water and an empty glass mixing bowl. You’ll then have to heat the water in the pot to melt the wax inside the mixing vessel. 

Second step: Heat The Mixing Vial and Add Terpenes

The second step is heating the distillate on a hotplate to make a more liquid consistency. You must ensure that the distillate is adequately heated to get it runny enough to mix. Use a different transfer vessel for the distillates and terpenes to avoid contamination if you’re learning how to refill a dab pen cart for the first time.

Use a syringe and needle to add the precise amount of terpenes to your distillate. You can make use of online cannabis stores that have terpenes for sale if you yearn for that natural marijuana flavor. In most cases, the amount of terpenes should be 10 percent of your total distillate. Since volume changes with temperature, it would be wise to keep your terpenes away from excess heat and light before mixing.

Third step:  Fill Your Empty Cartridge

The final step after mixing the terpenes with your distillate would be to use the syringe and needle to fill the empty dab cart. The mixture will still have a honey-like consistency when you add it to the cartridge, but it will eventually cool off and settle inside the cart. 

After that, seal the cartridge with the plastic caps they come with or a mouthpiece. It would be best to let the mixture settle in the cart for about 12 to 24 hours before using it.
