Vape accessories
by Storz & Bickel
Storz and Bickel dosing capsules are small stainless steel pods that hold exactly 0.2g of ground flower, slotting directly into the heating chamber of any Storz and Bickel vaporiser. Pre-load a batch before you head out, swap them in and out in seconds, and keep your chamber almost spotlessly clean between deep cleans. This 40-pack gives you enough capsules to prepare sessions for an entire week — or longer — without touching your grinder again.
Dosing capsules solve the two biggest annoyances of portable vaporising: messy loading and constant cleaning. Without capsules, ground material sits directly in your ceramic heating chamber. Over 10, 20, 50 sessions, resin builds up on the chamber walls and the cooling unit screen. Airflow drops, flavour dulls, and you're reaching for isopropyl alcohol far more often than you'd like.
With a capsule in place, your herb stays contained inside a perforated steel shell. The chamber barely touches the material. We've seen Mighty owners go weeks between deep cleans when they use capsules consistently — compared to every few days without them. That alone makes the 40-pack worth it.
The other advantage is speed. Loading a capsule takes about 10 seconds at home with a grinder and a flat surface. Loading a chamber on the go — in wind, in the dark, on a park bench — takes longer and wastes material. Pre-pack 8 capsules into the Storz and Bickel capsule caddy, drop it in your pocket, and you're sorted for the day.
Each capsule is machined from food-safe stainless steel with a fine mesh lid that clicks into place. The tolerances are tight — they fit the chamber without rattling but pop out cleanly with a pen or the S&B filling tool.

Loading dosing capsules is straightforward, but a few small details make the difference between a good draw and a mediocre one.
The honest limitation with dosing capsules is capacity. At 0.2g per capsule, you're working with a smaller load than the Mighty's full chamber can hold (roughly 0.3g packed directly). For most people, 0.2g is plenty for a single session. But if you normally fill the chamber to the brim and draw long sessions, you might notice a slightly shorter run per capsule. The trade-off — cleanliness, convenience, consistent dosing — is worth it for the vast majority of users we talk to.
One thing to watch: the capsules can be a bit fiddly to fill by hand if you've got large fingers. The opening is about 15mm across. A small scoop or the tip of a key card helps funnel material in without spilling. Or just grab the filling set and skip the hassle entirely.
We've sold these since Storz and Bickel first introduced them, and the 40-pack outsells the 8-pack by a wide margin. Once people try capsules, they tend to commit — and 8 runs out fast when you're pre-loading for the week.
Complete your setup with the Storz and Bickel Capsule Caddy — a pocket-sized aluminium case that holds 8 pre-loaded dosing capsules on a keychain. If you're loading all 40 capsules at once, the Storz and Bickel Magazine and Filling Set makes batch filling fast and clean. Both are designed to work with these exact capsules.
Both methods work. The question is what you value more: maximum chamber capacity or convenience and cleanliness. Here's how they compare in practice.
| Factor | Dosing capsules (0.2g) | Direct chamber load (~0.3g) |
|---|---|---|
| Load time (on the go) | Under 5 seconds (pre-loaded) | 30-60 seconds |
| Chamber cleaning frequency | Every 2-4 weeks | Every 3-5 sessions |
| Material per session | 0.2g fixed | 0.1-0.3g variable |
| Vapour density | Consistent, slightly lighter | Denser first draws |
| Portability | Excellent — pre-pack and go | Requires grinder and pouch |
| Waste | Minimal — contained extraction | Some spillage when loading |
If you mostly vape at home and don't mind a quick brush-out between sessions, direct loading gives you a slightly bigger bowl. If you vape on the move, share with friends, or just hate cleaning — capsules are the better call. We'd pick capsules 9 times out of 10.
Stainless steel is forgiving. After each use, dump the spent material and give the capsule a quick blow or tap. For a deeper clean every week or two, drop your used capsules into a small jar of isopropyl alcohol (90%+), let them soak for 15-20 minutes, then rinse under warm water and air dry on a paper towel. They come out looking nearly new.
Don't use soap — it can leave residue that you'll taste on the next session. And don't put them in the dishwasher. The mesh lids can warp at high temperatures, and a warped lid won't click shut properly.
With regular cleaning, a single capsule lasts hundreds of sessions. The mesh eventually discolours, but that's cosmetic — it doesn't affect airflow or function. When a lid finally loses its snap (usually after 6-12 months of heavy use), just replace that capsule from your 40-pack supply.
Yes, but you need the Volcano chamber reducer (sold separately for the Volcano Hybrid). The capsule drops into the reducer, which then sits in the standard Volcano filling chamber. Without the reducer, the capsule rattles around in the larger Volcano bowl and won't heat evenly.
Not with the standard capsule alone. You need the Storz and Bickel drip pad — a small steel-wool disc that sits inside the capsule and absorbs concentrate. Place the pad in the capsule, add a rice-grain-sized amount of concentrate on top, and close the lid. The drip pads are sold separately.
One capsule is designed for a single session. You'll get roughly 8-12 draws from 0.2g depending on your temperature setting and draw speed. After that, the material is spent. Dump it, reload, or swap in a fresh pre-packed capsule.
They're one of the most practical accessories Storz and Bickel make. The reduction in cleaning alone saves you time every week. Pre-loading capsules also means consistent 0.2g doses — no guessing, no overpacking. After selling these for years, we rarely hear anyone regret the purchase.
Eight capsules cover about two days of moderate use. If you're pre-loading for a week or sharing with others, you'll burn through 8 fast. The 40-pack lets you batch-fill a full week's worth in one sitting and always have clean capsules ready while used ones soak in isopropyl.
Slightly different, not worse. The perforated steel shell adds a tiny bit of thermal mass, so the first draw may take an extra second to produce visible vapour. After that, extraction is even and consistent. Most users report no noticeable difference in flavour or density.
You can, but airflow works best when the capsule is full. A half-filled capsule lets air bypass the herb instead of passing through it, which reduces extraction efficiency. If you want a smaller dose, fill the capsule fully with a mix of herb and the optional filling pad to take up space.
