Good idea, the powder is Tylosin, 1/16 teaspoon. I was curious since I don't have that size teaspoon. It would be easier if I could simply fill one upIt depends on the powder and how densely it can be packed. My recommendation would be to make yourself a makeshift capsule filling machine and do some experimentation. I would start with any box that has a smooth surface that you can easily push the powder across without it getting stuck in the texture of the box. Poke a hole in it with the tip of a scissors, or something small like a nail scissors or steak knife point, and widen it to just big enough to hold a capsule snugly and flush with the box surface. Then measure out 1/8 or 1/16 tsp (I believe the middle spoon of the Dash-Pinch-Smidgen set is 1/16 tsp) and push it back and forth over the capsule with an index card (or a corner of an index card is easier to work with.)
Do you have an 1/8 tsp? I am thinking it may take two gel caps to fit 1/8 tsp. So you may end up with 1/16 in one capsule.Good idea, the powder is Tylosin, 1/16 teaspoon. I was curious since I don't have that size teaspoon. It would be easier if I could simply fill one up
