Appearance
In cartridge form, the oil's color can vary depending on the extraction method, ranging from clear to light amber for distillates, golden to deep amber for live resins, and straw-gold to honey-amber for solventless rosins. Premium cartridges typically utilize ceramic-core, glass-tank hardware for consistent heat distribution and flavor preservation.
