Fill it with isopropyl alcohol and a spoonful of coarse salt, cover the openings, and shake. Rinse with warm water and let it dry. Never run hot glass under cold water, because the temperature shock cracks it. Clean the Carta 3's C3 Connect at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSummary:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fits the Carta 3 and earlier Cartas, old glass fits the Carta 3, smoke tint, curved neck, fill just over the downstem, clean with alcohol and salt.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- 13.
