Vaporizer Dosing Capsules: The Revolution of Metered Inhalation
Designed primarily for portable vaporizers but also usable for some desktop vaporizers with the help of special accessories, dosing capsules are becoming increasingly popular among our customers as vaporizer accessories. Therefore, in this article we take a closer look at the small containers designed for ground herbs.
We will first look at the role of vaporizer dosing capsules and show which well-known vaporizers are considered pioneers in the herb dosing capsule segment. We will also explain the advantages of a stainless steel dosing capsule and how best to use it for efficient vaporization, and what makes capsule caddies so practical. Finally, we will give a short guide on how to use them and draw a conclusion.
The role of dosing capsules in vaping
There are a whole range of advantages to vaporizing with a dosing capsule. The small metal capsules, which can be purchased in online head shops and vaporizer shops, have a specific filling quantity. If you fill each capsule in the same way, you always know how much herbal material is in the filling chamber of the vaporizer. You can also quickly replace such a herbal capsule on the go - there is no need for laborious filling by hand and your vaporizer stays clean for longer.
When using a dosing capsule, the vaporizer still needs to be cleaned much less often. This is because most of the deposits in a vaporizer occur in the herb chamber, which is significantly reduced when using such a capsule.
There are no disadvantages to using a dosing capsule, but be careful: you should be careful when removing the capsule after vaping, as your vaporizer makes it quite hot. The capsules also need to be cleaned regularly so that they remain fully functional and the lids can still be easily screwed on, removed and attached.
Storz & Bickel Crafty and Mighty: Pioneers in the field of herbal capsules
Anyone who has been dealing with vaporizers for a while will certainly be familiar with the Mighty and Crafty models from the German vaporizer pioneer Storz & Bickel. These herbal vaporizers in particular ensured that dosing capsules became more popular in Germany and around the world. The manufacturer was the first to recognize the advantages that such a capsule can offer and has since then offered them as accessories for its devices. This manufacturer is also responsible for the legendary set of 40, which is particularly suitable for those who vape relatively often.
The Crafty and Mighty capsules offer space for a herb quantity of around 0.2 grams. The filling quantity in the dosing capsules can be reduced with a filling pad, which is particularly interesting for fans of microdosing. The Storz and Bickel dosing capsules also include the Mighty Medic dosing capsules, although these are no different from the conventional capsules for the Mighty and also fit in the Storz & Bickel Crafty and Crafty plus vaporizer .
Titanium and stainless steel dosing capsules: durability and purity
In addition to the original dosing capsules for the Mighty, Crafty, Venty, Volcano and Plenty vaporizers, there are also titanium dosing capsules and stainless steel herb capsules from Vapotools by 157Grad. The main advantage of these vaporizer capsules is that they are extremely robust and therefore extremely durable. You don't have to worry about the taste of the ground herbs or the vapor being distorted and they are quick and easy to clean.
The herbal capsules from Vapotools by 157Grad, which can be screwed or plugged in depending on the type, are not only suitable for the Storz & Bickel Mighty and Mighty+ and others for Storz & Bickel vaporizers, but also for a variety of other vaporizers. They are the right size for the respective herbal chamber of the vaporizer.

Efficiently vaporize herbs with dosing capsules
There are hardly any herbs that are not suitable for vaporization with a dosing capsule. Care should be taken not to grind herbs extremely finely, otherwise herbal material can leak out of the small holes in the capsules.
To use the herbal dosing capsules as efficiently as possible, they should be filled to the brim. This way, the herbs are heated evenly and extracted optimally. If you would rather use less than the full filling quantity of the capsules or want a smaller filling chamber, you can simply use a suitable drop pad to reduce the filling chamber.
