Before you start to fill up the cartridge with the DI resin, insert one of the sponges, preferably the thicker one, fully into the cartridge.

After that you can use a spoon to scoop the DI resin from the zip lock bag and place them into the cartridge. Put the resin into the cartridge until it is full like this.

After that, place the remaining sponge on resin and screw the base cap on the cartridge. What you will finally have will be a DI cartridge that is fully packed with DI resin.

... lol u lagi "eng" .......

Not as "eng" as you lah... :eyebrow:

By the way, I found that using the rubber gasket from the Crystal Pro, the refillable cartridge has a tighter fit. Whether not using the gasket will result in water escaping from the sides is not know yet as I haven't made any DI water... :upsidedown:

Hi kiko, I dun have any spare leh. Only got the 2 from my previous 2 catridges, the rest I threw away liao... :upsidedown:

But I think u can use the white tape you can get from the hardware stores and tape the inlet of the Crystal Pro cannister. It should be able to work since what you want to do is to prevent the water from gushing out.

Will try to do this later when I have the time and see if it is workable.
