I was going to fill "size 0" capsules with harmala HCl using The Capsule Machine.
Unfortunately, the target amount 100 mg per capsule is too little for a capsule so they are not getting filled evenly (the filling process relies on evening out the powder using a card, then pressing the powder a bit and repeat the process resulting in very little variation in weight between caps).
I therefore needed some extra filling material for the powder. I chose brown rice flour but this is not optimal (brown rice has quite short shelf life).
Other options coming to my mind: sugar, white flour, diatomaceous earth, bentonite clay, white clay.
Any suggestion for proper filling material that:
1) has a long shelf life
2) does not negatively interact with harmalas
