The
cap-m-quik capsule Filler for size 0 capsules
The cap-m-quik is ideal for
people who buy powdered herbs and want to make their own capsules.
The
Cap-M-Quik capsule filler makes capsules in batches of 50. The
capsules that come with the filler (and can be bought separately)
are not suitable for liquids. The capsules (size 0) themselves
are made of plant fibres and are suitable for vegans.

Taking
herbs in capsules is preferred by many people as it avoids having
to experience the taste of the herb.

How
to Use the Cap-M-Quik Capsule Filler
|
|

Capsule filler raised
|
The end pieces are turned to raise the the centre plastic piece
to form a table. The capsules with their caps removed are placed
into holes in the filler. The top of the capsules are level with
the table. |
|

Tamper
|
The
powdered herb is then poured onto the capsule filler and the plastic
spreader is used to push it over each capsule. The tamper (left)
presses the powder into each capsule allowing more to be put in
for complete filling. |
|

Capsule filler lowered
|
This
process is repeated until the capsules are full. The end pieces
of the capsule filler are turned to lower the table. The ends
of the capsules are exposed so that the end caps can be easily
replaced on each filled capsule.
