Capsule Machine with Empty Capsules

Our Empty Capsules and The Capsule Machine provide the perfect way to create your own supplements at home.

The Capsule Machine is a simple and inexpensive device that allows you to quickly produce 18 (size 000) or 24 (sizes 00, 0, 1) of your own custom capsules at home. By encapsulating your own powders it’s possible to cut out the additional costs associated with pre-encapsulated supplements, which means you’ll save money while creating your own personalized capsules.

Which size capsules?

Our most popular empty capsules are size 00 which hold around 380-950mg of most powders. If you are making your own capsules for the first time, then size 00 would be a good size to try first.

Our full range of empty capsules goes from size 000 to 2. Our largest capsules are size 000, holding approximately 550-1350mg of powder. Our smallest empty capsules are size 2, which hold approximately 150-360mg of powder. Empty capsules are measured in terms of the volume they can hold, however the exact amount of powder a capsule can hold is dependent upon the density of the powder you are using. If your powder is very dense then your capsules will hold more powder. The table below shows how much each size of capsule can hold for different powder densities.

What if I don’t know my powder density?

As a general rule of thumb, most powders fall around the 0.6-0.8g/ml mark. However, very fluffy powders should be considered to be around the 0.4g/ml mark, whereas fine granular powders (similar to sugar) would be 0.8-1g/ml.

Vitamin C has a powder density of 0.95g/ml. A 00 capsule will hold approximately 950-970mg of Vitamin C powder. A size 0 capsule will hold approximately 680-700mg of Vitamin C powder.

Capsule Machine Instructions

1. Put the base on stand. Separate capsules. Put the longer part of the capsule in base and the shorter part in the top (open end up).
2. Put the base on a shallow bowl or plate. Pour the powder into the capsules and spread the tops with the enclosed spreader card.
3. Use the tamping tool to compact the powder, if desired, and then pour in more powder to top up the capsules. Spread any excess off of the open corner into a bowl or plate.
4. Replace the top and remove the Capsule Machine form the stand. Put on a flat surface and press down firmly until unit bottoms out.
5. The capsules are then automatically joined and held in the top.
6. Press the top evenly and firmly - the capsules are then automatically ejected.
