C8 + C10 MCT Oil from Coconut · 473mL Bottle

Bulletproof™ MCT Oil — 473mL

A solvent-free MCT oil containing C8 (caprylic acid) and C10 (capric acid) only — no lauric acid (C12) and no longer-chain fats. Starter or trial size of the C8+C10 blend.

473mL bottle · ~31 servings (1 tablespoon each) · No lauric acid, no fillers.

Key Points

  • C8 + C10 blend — caprylic and capric acid medium-chain triglycerides, no lauric acid
  • Made from coconut oil — fractionated to isolate the shorter medium-chain fatty acids
  • Starter / trial size — smaller bottle at a lower total cost than the 946mL, useful for first-time buyers or occasional use
  • Flavourless — blends into hot and cold drinks, dressings, and cooking without altering taste
  • Ketogenic-friendly — suits low-carb and ketogenic dietary patterns; pure fat, zero carbohydrate
  • Solvent-free processing — no chemical extraction agents used

What It Is

This is the 473mL size of Bulletproof MCT Oil — a medium-chain triglyceride oil containing C8 (caprylic acid) and C10 (capric acid) only. Same product as the 946mL bottle, in a smaller size that suits first-time buyers or occasional users.

It differs from the Brain Octane C8 oil in that it includes C10 alongside C8. Some MCT products marketed as "MCT oil" also include lauric acid (C12) — this one does not.

If you want the most concentrated form of the shortest MCT (C8), choose Brain Octane. If you want an MCT oil at a lower per-mL cost that still excludes lauric acid, this is a good choice.

Sourcing & Processing

Source: Coconut oil.

Processing: The C8 and C10 fractions are separated from the rest of the coconut oil through fractional distillation. No chemical solvents used.

What’s left out: Lauric acid (C12), longer-chain saturated fats, and non-triglyceride components.

How to Use

The flavourless profile blends into a wide range of foods and drinks:

  • In coffee — as the MCT oil component of the Bulletproof Coffee recipe
  • In smoothies — add 1 tablespoon per serve
  • In salad dressings — substitutes for other oils
  • Drizzled on food — over steamed vegetables, soups, or fatty meats after cooking
  • Cold uses — suitable for cold or lukewarm dishes; not recommended for high-heat frying

Start small. If you’re new to MCT oil, begin with 1 teaspoon (5mL) per day and increase gradually. Taking too much too quickly is a common cause of digestive discomfort.

The Bulletproof Coffee Recipe

Bulletproof Coffee Preparation

  1. Brew 2 cups of Bulletproof coffee
  2. Combine with 2 tablespoons of grass-fed butter (or grass-fed ghee)
  3. Add 2 tablespoons of Bulletproof MCT Oil (this product)
  4. Blend in a high-speed blender or with an Aerolatte® frother
  5. Pour and drink while hot

Good to Know

Should I get the 473mL or the 946mL?

The 473mL (this product) is the starter size — lower total cost, useful for first-time buyers or occasional users. The 946mL is more economical per mL for regular users.

Should I get this or Brain Octane?

This MCT Oil is a C8+C10 blend at a lower per-mL cost. Brain Octane is 100% C8 — more concentrated per tablespoon and priced higher. Choose Brain Octane for the shortest, most concentrated MCT profile; choose this MCT Oil to use MCT oil in larger volumes without dropping to a lauric-inclusive product.

Why exclude lauric acid?

Lauric acid is technically classified as a medium-chain fatty acid (C12) but behaves more like a longer-chain fat in digestion. Some MCT products marketed on the strength of "coconut MCT" are largely lauric acid, which changes both the digestion profile and the concentration of the shorter MCTs. This product excludes lauric acid.

Why does it get cloudy in the fridge?

MCT oil can thicken or cloud when cold. This is normal. Once returned to room temperature the oil clears and thins again. This does not affect the quality or shelf life.

XCT Oil / Collagen Peptides

Unfortunately the XCT Oil did not agree with my tummy. I only took 1.65 ml (1/3 of a teaspoon) in the morning for 2 days. It upset my tummy and it took me 2 weeks to recover. However, the Collagen Peptides are excellent and I hope to order more in the future.

First foray into trying bullet

First foray into trying bullet coffee.

I have this with GRASS FED GHEE & ORGANIC COCONUT OIL BLEND - 300ML KETO FAT.

Been trying for two weeks and as a morning drink, this does give me energy throughout the day.

The oil is tasteless so could be added to anything but anecdotally, I feel more awake when I take this. Haven't had any major side effects at the moment as expecting my stomach to get used to it.
