growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Hello all, After a Storz and bickel filling set for 40 capsules, but can bring myself to spend £50 on price of plastic or metal with holes in. Is there any cheap versions of this? Find filling the capsules so long, thanks all Edited July 27, 2020 by growinggold Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Is that the brand? There are basic filling machines on Slamazon for £20 ish. They're for powders so you can't just tip a liquid on the plate to fill them but it will still make things quicker than doing it cap by cap.

growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Sorry, I mean storz and bickel , bloody typos. Yeah it was the branded on k looked it. I can't seem to find unbranded metal dried herb capsule filler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Depot Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 40 always seemed far too many for me but i was tempted by the unofficial Delta 3d ones that fill 8 caps at a time. US based tho so still not super cheap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 40 sounds ideal tbh, I burn through on average about ,21 a week so twice a week fill ups give or take. Really want a cheap one. Argh. Anyone got a laser cutter I can supply the drawing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippie on hill Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Delta 3D studios do an a couple of 3D printed loaders https://delta3dstudios.com/storz-bickel-dosing-capsule-loading-tray-v3/ Can you not just get a piece of board and drill some 12mm holes to make your own tho? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 I think this will be happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepe Ramon Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I have one but the only time I use it is when I am going away and I need a load of capsules. I took 120 to North Wales for example on a fortnight holiday. I had about 12 left coming back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 @UnderMirkwood do you find flower quality stays the same once they have put and stored in capsules? I keep all my filled ones in a old jam jar. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Depot Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I havent found many plants that really keep their flavour after being ground up. That's why the 40 capsule filler always seemed like too many for general personal use. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growinggold Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Thanks @Bubbles Depot I'll keep it on the list jobs to do, just not make it a priority. Also when drying you plants do wait until the stems snap to jar up? I've trimmed and jarred a plant up at 8 days of drying in little worried this maybe to early now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep all my filled ones in a old jam jar. I kept them in an air tight container and they were fine, I could still tell the strains apart, there were 3 different ones. For everyday use I just fill as I go. I also took my Mighty to Spain last year, same method I filled a load of capsules before I left, went through customs easily got the boat from Dover to Calais and then drove all the way across France to just north of Barcelona vaping all the way there and then all way back two weeks later. I put the used capsules into a compartment in the footwell of my car, it's a Renault. I'm hoping to repeat the trip again in November. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually wait til the stems snap then trim and store in shoeboxes before jarring. 8 days could be too quick or it could be fine, depending on your environment. If the buds in the jar feel moist just take them out and let them dry, then put them back in and try again.

growinggold Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 (edited) I will leave the jars open each night for a couple of hours or more. the grow space, which was also my dry space is back in action again now. Took some capsule dimensions last night, so will keep you all in formed with my DIY loader. Edited July 28, 2020 by growinggold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
