How to Fill Your Own Capsules DIY

Filling capsules is a straightforward process. Begin by gathering your finely ground powder, a capsule filling tool (if using), and the capsules. Separate the capsule halves, fill the longer body by tapping or using a filling machine, then press the cap on. The snap-shut design ensures a tight seal.

For best results, ensure your powder is finely ground to fit comfortably. You can mix multiple powders to create custom blends. Store filled capsules in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their integrity.

Why Choose Bovine Gelatine Capsules?

Bovine gelatine has been a reliable material for capsules for decades. Derived from cattle, it offers excellent stability and dissolution characteristics. The transparency of these capsules allows you to see the contents, which is helpful for quality control and colour identification. Gelatine capsules are generally easier to digest than some vegetarian alternatives and are less brittle. Note that these are not suitable for vegans, but they are free from synthetic additives. If you prefer a non-animal option, please look for vegetarian capsules elsewhere.
