A process is described in which cast iron melt are inoculated in the mold. The cast iron melt flowing through the sprue or gate system of the mold is contacted in the mold with an inoculate body that is contained in the mold. In order to increase the rate of dissolution and to improve the results of inoculation, said body is mounted at both ends in mutually opposite recesses (core prints) in the wall of the sprue or gate system. In another embodiment, the flow area is constricted closely below the inoculating body.
