I have been on the lookout for someone who can encapsulate this next placenta but living in a small town, not very close to the big city anymore, I've come up with nothing.
The placentabenefits website doesn't offer their DIY kits anymore, plus they don't ship to Canada even if they did.
Does anyone have any info or resources for someone who wants to do this on their own?

But next time I will skip that part). I did that for just a short time, then I cut it into smaller, thin slices to dehydrate it. (again, I will skip this next time and just blend it up) I dehydrated it in my oven at 200 degrees and it only took like 4.5 hours to dry enough to "snap". Then I put it in the food processor and then the coffee grinder (to get it as fine as possible). I filled my capsules (size "00" I believe) by hand, with a straw. I ended up with about 130ish capsules total (and actually didn't use a small part of the placenta that I'd left in the bag, but by that point I figured no way was I going to keep going 
). Total cost was about $6 (just the cost of the capsules) and it took me about 5-6 hours total.
I just think it would be so much easier (and likely retain so much more of the "good stuff") to just blend it raw and pour it out to dehydrate it. I think a dehydrator was what was recommended to use, I just didn't have one at the time. I do have one now and will probably use it for the next time. There was a slight smell at first but it wasn't really that bad or that strong, and it could have just been from while it was steaming. I did it while DH wasn't home so he couldn't complain about it the whole time. I've heard the smell is comparable to liver, but I've never had liver so I can't say.
