Ingredients
- 240ml MCT oil
- Source material (amount calculated by BatchCraft)
- Size 00 gelatin capsules (30 count)
- Oral syringe or small dropper
- Cheesecloth or fine mesh strainer
How to Make It
- 1Decarboxylate: Preheat oven to 115°C / 240°F. Break source material into small pieces, spread on parchment, bake 35-40 minutes.
- 2Infuse: Warm MCT oil in a double boiler to 85-95°C / 185-200°F. Add decarbed material, maintain for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
- 3Strain: Filter through cheesecloth into a clean measuring cup. MCT stays liquid at room temp, making it easy to work with.
- 4Calculate fill volume: Divide total oil by 30 portions to get ml per capsule. Use a syringe for precise fills.
- 5Fill capsules: Separate capsule halves, fill the larger half, and press closed. Work on a tray to catch drips.
- 6Store: Place filled capsules in a sealed container in the fridge. Label with date and potency per capsule.
Pro Tips
- ā MCT oil stays liquid at room temperature ā perfect for capsule filling but means capsules can leak if stored warm.
- ā Use a capsule filling tray (available online) to speed up the process and keep things clean.
- ā Double-check fill volume with a test capsule before filling the whole batch ā overfilling causes leaks.
Serving Ideas
Fill size 00 gelatin capsules using a syringe or dropper. Take with food for best absorption. Store capsules in a cool, dark place.
