What Are Empty Gelatine Capsules?

Empty gelatine capsules consist of two-piece shells made from pharmaceutical-grade gelatine, designed to be filled with powdered supplements, herbs, or other ingredients. Those from Capsuline are crafted from 100% bovine hide, ensuring a kosher and halal-compliant product without pork, additives, or contaminants. These capsules are ideal for DIY supplement enthusiasts, herbalists, and anyone wanting complete control over their supplement ingredients and dosages.

Choosing the Right Capsule Size: Why Size 00?

Capsule size determines how much powder each shell can hold. Size 00 is one of the most popular choices, capable of holding approximately 700–800 mg of powder, depending on density. This makes it suitable for a wide range of supplements, from vitamins and minerals to herbal blends. For reference, size 0 holds about 500 mg, while size 1 holds about 400 mg. If you need a larger dose or are working with less dense powders, size 00 provides an excellent balance of capacity and ease of swallowing.

Gelatine vs. Vegetarian Capsules: Which Is Better?

Capsuline offers both gelatine and vegetarian options. Gelatine capsules, like these, are derived from animal sources (bovine hide) and are known for their stability, clarity, and cost-effectiveness. They are also kosher and halal certified. Vegetarian capsules, typically made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), are plant-based and suitable for vegans. However, gelatine capsules often have a lower moisture content, making them less brittle and easier to fill with oily or hygroscopic powders. Choose gelatine for a reliable, traditional capsule that works well with most powder blends.

How to Fill Empty Capsules

Filling empty capsules can be done manually or with a capsule filling machine. For small batches, simply separate the cap and body, pack the powder firmly into the body, and reattach the cap. Capsuline's capsules feature Farma Lock technology, which ensures a tight seal to prevent spillage and protect contents from dust and humidity. For larger quantities, a capsule machine streamlines the process, allowing you to fill dozens of capsules at once. Always work in a clean, dry environment to avoid contamination.

Storage Tips for Maximum Freshness

Store your empty gelatine capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid temperatures above 25°C to prevent softening or sticking. Proper storage ensures the capsules remain intact and ready for filling. Capsuline's packaging is designed to maintain freshness, but once opened, transfer unused capsules to an airtight container for best results.
