# Karl Fischer Glassware and Reagents 101:  How to setup.

#  ![Screen_Shot_2015-06-17_at_11.16.04_PM](https://www.scientificgear.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen_Shot_2015-06-17_at_11.16.04_PM.png?width=329&name=Screen_Shot_2015-06-17_at_11.16.04_PM.png)

It seems sometimes we overlook the obvious and forget to explain some of the most basic concepts.  Sorry about that.  So we thought it might be a good idea to show how Karl Fischer Glassware is setup and how we introduce or "charge" the vessel with reagents.  We hope you enjoy this short video tutorial!
