Yo DGC,
I really want to make my own vape pen cartridges for “discreet” consumption.
A quick Google search gave me this page: https://www.extractsacademy.com/how-to-make-vape-cartridges-e-liquid-juice-guide-tutorial/
My plan is to purchase the Source Turbo and use the extract as a base material for making the cartridges. Does anyone have experience with cartridges? Does this web site have good information? Just really looking for a good starting point and any information the good DGC is willing to share.
Thanks everyone!
Beast

Thank you SOUP! I missed that when using the search function.
Beat me to it Soup. Well done. The Capn had some good articles. I have his canna oil post bookmarked, and I think printed because I am old.
I’m looking for info on making your own vape cartridges also. Beast have you gathered anymore info? I’ve ready the article from the captain. I pressed some rosin to make my vape juice. Turned out surprisingly well for 1st try ever. My problem is that I reused old cartridges I that came prefixed. My problem is they give some bell ringer hits the 1st 2 hits then cant any vape. I’m wondering is it due to reusing old cartridges? I’ve have new carts ordered but not sure if they will work either. Interested in hearing your progress. Good luck.
I’ve been researching pens/vapes to use with rosin…
I hear the “Humboldt Vape Tech Sai Top Air Flow” atomizer with a “titanium bucket coil” will allow you to vape rosin on the go without having to add anything to it.
I think the issue with rosin + pens is the COILS/WICKS get clogged up.
Rosin has a lot waxes and other stuff in there that clogs up coils and wicks very quickly, but if I hear if you can use a BUCKET or a NAIL style atomizer you don’t run into that problem.
I haven’t tried one yet, but think the titanium bucket thing i mentioned above works because the rosin sits in a titanium dish that is heated by a ceramic heating element underneath it. Keeping the rosin in a titanium dish separate from the ceramic heating element seems like it would solve the problem of the coils/wicks getting clogged.
Havent tried it yet, but might be worth looking into.
I’m going to check it out. Thank you for the input Soup.
I’ll check that out as well. I have a source vape already and I don’t think I can control the quantity I consume as well as a vape pen. I just like the consistency and ease of use that vape pens allow. The source vape has the “bucket” (I think). And it’s weird because it sometimes looks to be empty but there’s still wax inside. Which is bad if I’m looking for a small hit during the work day and I accidentally take a ripper! Most of the info I find on the internet is from manufacturers of vape pen “juice” and devices.
My plan is to get an ExtractCraft source turbo to make my own high purity concentrate, then try cutting it with vegetable glycerin and injecting it into an empty vape cartridge. I’ll be sure to let the DGC what I come up with, whether good or bad.
I appreciate the input DGC
I ended getting a source vapes orb 2 XL. I like it, I can put the rosin right into the source vapes. I too, prefer the vape pens for the convenience. I used The Solution recommended by the capn. I was very satisfied with the high and taste. I’m planning on doing another run of the rosin mixed with the Grilla-13 Solution. This time I’m going to use new carts that I purchased, instead of reusing carts that came prefilled. I recently purchased The Nugsmasher OG thinking I would have no problem turning rosin into vape juice. Not so successful yet. I’ve read to winterize, but kinda defeats the purpose of solventless. I’ll keep you posted on how the next run goes.
Tony do you use anything to thin the rosin like wax liquidizer or veg glycerin.
kahuna1974 I use The Solution ( G-rilla 13 is the flavor ). I basically followed the directions from The Capn’s article on making vape pens. I just substituted rosin for the shatter he was using. Used about .5g of The Solution to 1g of rosin, then heated under 140 degrees til rosin and solution melted together. I then put into reused carts that were originally prefilled LIT carts.
shoot that sucks cause all i do is use abit of my flavor with my rosin i make and it works great do you use wick or no wick cartridges.no wick deff is better for thicker stuff i have both.
I made up a couple of more carts with a better result. I believe I need to thin down the consistency a tad bit more. I’m using ceramic C-Cell carts. They have 4-2mm holes for thicker oils. They are also wickless. I’m going to work on it a bit more and see what happens. I’ll update as I progress.
I been diluting 10 ml of qwiso (purged) to 1ml of MCT oil and it works a treat for me. I decarb and add to 1ml ceramic ccell carts…
