Storz and Bickel Dosing Capsule Magazine
The Magazine with 8 Dosing Capsules is a pre-loading accessory from Storz and Bickel that holds eight aluminium dosing capsules in a compact, pocket-sized carrier. Built for the CRAFTY, MIGHTY, PLENTY, and VOLCANO (with the Filling Chamber Reducer), this magazine turns your vaporiser sessions from a fumbling ritual into a grab-and-go affair. Fill all eight capsules at home, snap the magazine shut, and you've got a full day's worth of material ready to swap in and out in seconds.
Why the Dosing Capsule Magazine Changes Your Routine
The dosing capsule magazine solves a problem every portable vaporiser owner knows too well: reloading on the move is messy, slow, and wastes material. Without capsules, you're grinding into a little pile, trying to funnel it into a hot chamber, spilling half of it onto your lap, and then scraping sticky residue out later. With this magazine, you prep once and you're sorted for the day.
Each of the 8 dosing capsules clicks into the magazine's moulded slots with a satisfying little snap. The whole unit is about the size of a thick coin — it sits flat in a jacket pocket or bag without any fuss. The capsules themselves are fine-mesh aluminium, which means your material stays contained, airflow stays consistent, and your vaporiser's oven stays almost spotlessly clean between sessions. We've seen MIGHTYs that have run hundreds of sessions with capsules and still look nearly new inside. Without capsules? That same oven gets caked in about a week.
One honest limitation: the capsules hold a bit less material than packing the chamber directly. You're trading a small amount of capacity for the convenience and cleanliness. For most people, that's a trade worth making — but if you're someone who likes to pack absolutely full chambers, you'll notice the difference. The capsule holds roughly 0.15g of finely ground material versus about 0.25g in a bare MIGHTY chamber.

If you're using this magazine with a VOLCANO, you'll need the Filling Chamber Reducer — the capsules won't sit properly in the full-size chamber without it. Already got a CRAFTY+ or MIGHTY+? Grab a second magazine so you can rotate — one loaded, one being cleaned. The Storz and Bickel Filling Chamber Reducer and additional dosing capsule sets pair directly with this magazine.
How the Dosing Capsule Magazine Keeps Your Vaporiser Clean
This is the bit that sold us on the capsule system years ago. When you vaporise directly into the chamber, plant material makes contact with the heating element and the chamber walls. Over 10, 20, 50 sessions, resin builds up. That residue affects flavour, reduces airflow, and eventually means you're spending 15 minutes with isopropyl alcohol and a brush trying to scrub it out. With dosing capsules, the material sits inside a sealed aluminium container. The chamber barely gets dirty at all.
We've had customers bring in their MIGHTY after 6 months of capsule-only use, and the oven still looked almost factory-fresh. Compare that to a MIGHTY used without capsules for the same period — night and day. The capsules take the hit instead, and cleaning 8 small capsules is far quicker than deep-cleaning a gunked-up chamber. A 10-minute soak in isopropyl, a rinse under warm water, and they're good to go again.
The magazine itself has a tactile, slightly ridged grip on the outside. It opens with a twist — there's a definite mechanical click when it locks shut, which gives you confidence it won't pop open in your pocket. The whole thing weighs next to nothing. Feels like carrying a small tin of mints.
How to Use the Dosing Capsule Magazine
- Grind your material to a medium-fine consistency. Too coarse and you'll get uneven extraction; too fine and it can clog the mesh.
- Open the magazine by twisting the top half. The 8 capsule slots are visible, each with a capsule seated inside.
- Remove a capsule, pop off its lid, and fill it with ground material. Don't pack it too tightly — you want air to flow through. About 0.15g per capsule is the sweet spot.
- Replace the capsule lid and press it into its magazine slot until it clicks.
- Repeat for all 8 capsules, or as many as you need for the day.
- Twist the magazine shut until it clicks locked.
- When you're ready to vaporise, open the magazine, pop out a capsule, and drop it into your CRAFTY, MIGHTY, PLENTY, or VOLCANO chamber (VOLCANO requires the Filling Chamber Reducer).
- After your session, use the orange pick tool (included with your vaporiser) to lift the hot capsule out. Drop the spent capsule back into an empty magazine slot to cool.
- Clean used capsules by soaking in isopropyl alcohol for 10 minutes, then rinsing under warm water and air-drying completely before refilling.
