How to make kratom capsules at home
Kratom capsules are a new system to enjoy the leaves of the tree Mitragyna Speciosa from the Southeast Asian countries. For quite a few centuries, old-fashioned civilizations have appreciated the kratom leaves by eating them fresh and raw or dehydrating and grinding them. In the present day, we don’t usually care for sophisticated recipes and lengthy processes, like brewing a kratom tea. Capsules of kratom let everybody make the most of this tree and make it less difficult to calculate the dosage. If you have been wondering how to make kratom capsules at home, in this article I’ll explain the whole process.
Advantage of making kratom capsules at home
Kratom capsules are incredibly simple and cheap to make. When you prepare your own, you can control the quality of the kratom you consume. It’s possible to put together kratom capsules customized to your individual preferences, instead of relying on what a kratom vendor suggests that you need. You control the purity and good-quality of the kratom powder or extract. You’ll be able to make kratom capsules with zero additives. Self-made kratom capsules are a cost-effective alternative to local stores or smoke shops. Some people wonder if popular stores like Walmart or GNC carry already made kratom capsules, but unfortunately, the answer is no, neither Walmart or GNC sell kratom capsules.
How much do empty kratom capsules cost?
To put together your kratom capsules all you need is to buy capsules. My nearby supermarket carried capsules over a decade ago at 27 cents per capsule. I’m pleased to say that since the new recognition of home made herbal remedies, the cost of the capsules has fell. You can find gelatin capsules and plant-based capsules at a very fair price.

Positives and negatives of gelatin kratom capsules
Gelatin is the first and most widespread material utilized to make kratom capsules. It is actually the more affordable choice, and is sold in with many alternatives. All these capsules can be bought in different colors, flavors and dimensions to meet your requirements. Having said that, gelatin is an animal product which is produced from collagen. This protein compound is taken from connective tissues and animals organs, which is a serious problem for many users. People who have spiritual or dietary limitations, which forbid them from ingesting animal products, are not able to ingest this type of capsules.
Another point to take into account when deciding on gelatin or vegetarian capsules is which type of kratom they will be packed with. Gelatin capsules are only suited to use with powdered kratom. Liquid kratom and other kratom forms, such as kratom tinctures, are not compatible with capsules made of gelatin.
Positives and negatives of vegetarian kratom capsules
The most evident benefits associated with working with cellulose based or vegetarian capsules is that they aren’t created with animal products. This particular attribute makes them ideal for those who don’t eat animal products. Vegetarian capsules in addition to being the only choice for vegetarian and vegans are more appropriate for religious factors too. As a matter of fact, vegetarian capsules can be categorized as Kosher and Halal. These capsules can be found in numerous sizes and colors, and are more functional to work with. Cellulose is the chosen capsule for products which have more of a semi-solid or gel composition. Along with that, vegetarian capsules don’t posses any known possible health hazards because they are 100% organic and risk-free.
What size of kratom capsule fits you best?
There are various dimensions of kratom capsules to pick from. The normal size “0” holds 500 milligrams of kratom powder. The size “00”size holds 50% more kratom powder, approximately 750 milligrams. These capsules are larger in size so slightly harder to ingest. You will find smaller capsule sizes, also. Size “1” holds 400 milligrams of kratom powder or extract, or around 20% less when compared to size “0”, and is perfect for people who has problems with swallowing. Other dimensions include size “2” which holds 350 milligrams, and size “3” which holds 200 milligrams.
The unfilled capsules can be bought in packs of 500 or 1000 capsules. The dimensions of the kratom capsule that you want to consume will decide the dimensions of the encapsulation device that you need to buy, so carefully consider the capsule dimension that’s right for you.

Where can I buy these empty capsules?
Your local health shop might have unfilled capsules in reduced quantities. Their price can be higher in comparison with buying capsules online, so it is a good idea to have a price list to make certain that you are obtaining the best value. Walmart has plant based and gelatin capsules in 1000 and 500 count packs for relatively cheap.
Filling the kratom capsules manually
The actual procedure of filling the capsules is totally straightforward. Dump a big amount of kratom powder or kratom extract into a deep, ideally straight-sided container. Put on some latex gloves. I strongly recommend using latex gloves, they don’t just make the the entire process more hygienic, they also stop the kratom powder from staining your hands. Have a bowl of unfilled capsules ready.
Every capsule has a long part and a short part. The short part goes securely on top of the long part so the friction between both of them holds the capsule closed. The traditional technique is to detach the capsule, push the long part down into your kratom powder, remove it then squeeze the short part back on. I prefer to push it down twice to get a much firm pack. To hold the capsule close to the open end in a pencil grip and shove all 3 fingers down into the kratom powder along with the capsule.
This procedure usually works very well but it’s cumbersome. There’s some wasted kratom powder that adheres to the exterior of the capsule and also to your fingers while you do the job. And considering that you can’t tap down the kratom powder inside the capsule, you never obtain an even fill rate. Your dose in every capsule will fluctuate. In this video you can see the actual process.
Filling the kratom capsules with a machine
There are several capsule devices that can help you putting the kratom directly into capsules and capping them. Each device will only fills one dimension of capsule, so make sure you identify the capsule dimension you are going to use before choosing the machine. Below there is a video explaining how to make kratom capsules at home with a machine.
