Why Separated?

Standard empty capsules ship in their closed (joined) configuration; you separate them before filling. For users encapsulating frequently, the manual separation step adds time. The Separated option ships the halves already disjoined, ready to drop into The Capsule Machine's slots.

How to Use

Load the larger body halves into the bottom tray of The Capsule Machine. Load the smaller cap halves into the top tray. Fill with powdered herb, then press the machine to close. Each batch fills 24 capsules in 3-5 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Separated and standard empty capsules?
Separated capsules ship pre-disjoined; standard capsules require manual separation. Both are the same gelatin capsule material; the format determines workflow.

Do I need The Capsule Machine to use Separated capsules?
The Capsule Machine is the intended tool for Separated capsules. You can technically fill them by hand, but it's slower than filling standard joined capsules by hand because you have to keep the halves organized.

What's the capacity?
Same as standard size 00: approximately 500-735 mg of finely ground powder per filled capsule.

Are these vegan?
No; gelatin is bovine-derived. For vegan/vegetarian options, see Empty Vegetable Capsules in our Capsules/Machines category.

How are these packaged?
Pre-separated halves in sealed packaging. The packaging keeps the cap and body halves identifiable.

What size machine matches?
The Capsule Machine "00" matches the 00 Separated capsules. The size of the machine and the capsule must match.
