Do you take supplements and are annoyed that some are not in gel capsules. Then just convert the tablets into capsules.

The safe way would be just to put the tablet into a capsule, especially if the dosage is in concern.

When practicing a mortar and pestle are intrinsically not needed, though they ease up certain conditions. For example if one wants to get into the capsule making business.

The drying of herbs takes time and are used mainly in three areas: infusions like herbal teas, tinctures like oils, or internally like with capsules.

Thus if one wants to make capsules, one should have a capsule machine with its accordingly capsule shells and the size is usually 00, a mortar and pestle, and the ingredients.

Mortar and pestle is just one option of reducing the material, another option is to use a coffee mill. The benefit of the mill, especially if it is electric is that one has less physical labor.

Though are some downsides like the material might get hot, it can be quite loud, it can dull and potentially break the blade, or there is the cost of electricity.
