Pressed tablets

Post by blackcj7 »

Looking for recommendations of high quality pure kratom pressed tablets (or Hirsuta or Javanica). I'm looking for a good company that uses only powder no enhancers or fillers. I've searched and found a few companies but none that I've tried besides Krabot (personally not a huge fan of thier kratom).

Thanks for any recommendations

i like using hirsuta (and javanica) as a tool for tapering my daily kratom amount.

i've tried quite a few strains of hirsuta. The WG was the only one that made me feel bad. it was so bad that i just threw it away.

The only pressed tabs I saw on WG were extract tabs. I'm looking for pure ground leaf that has been pressed into a tab. So far I've found the following vendors with these tabs:
Dazed Dragons
Krabot (tried other kratom from them in past and was not impressed)
ETHA
Super Speciosa
Earth kratom
Super natural botanicals
Naya kratom

I've had Krabots flavored kratom and was not impressed. Not sure if any of these other companies are reliable with good quality leaf.

You wont find any without binders which will probably be considered a filler.
Why exactly do you want plain kratom powder tablets? If its taste i would just get used to the taste through experience.

They arent really popular because they cost more then capsules but do nothing more then what a capsule can do. The only benefit is being able to chew them but most people using capsules or tablets probably dont want to enjoy the taste of plain powder.

Yes, and in addition to what JFish says with capsules you can make your own out of ANY of the great batches sold by the vendors recommended here (for far cheaper). I'd definitely go with capsules.

I actually don't mind the taste of k. I take a lot of health supplements and liked the idea of tablets, easy to carry and you can chew them if you like. I just take way too many pills right now. Usually I use powder and just dump and chase. Was going to buy this to keep for when I'm out and about.
But, I probably should just use all the caps I already have from RVA and other reliable sources.

bennis botanicals has some very strong hirsuta and javanica.

Etha is expensive but good quality tablets. They run a lot of sales too. I personally like them more than capsules for on the go. Capsules take longer to absorb then plain powder crushed together like that. They don’t use any binder or fillers.

Yeah not so sure I agree with this. In MANY tests it's been found that plain powder crushed together (of other things, like Vitamin C, not kratom) take a LOT longer to absorb than capsules of the same stuff. Some people, indeed, find such tablets in their stools (my ex-wife had this particular problem. She switched to capsules and the problem went away). You can, of course, do what you want, but I am positive capsules dissolve MUCH easier and are the better way to go.

That’s just my experience. I’d rather just be digesting plain powder than a gelatin capsule on top of the powder.

You may be right that capsules kick in faster, though. The gelatin may aid absorption.

Those capsules mess my stomach up too.

But the vast majority of the time I’m just consuming the powder via tea and toss/wash. I only use these in rare circumstances.

I tried Etha tablets a few years ago and really liked them. I just looked at their website and they have a lot more varieties now.
