The invention related to a capsule for preparing a beverage comprising—a substantially rigid capsule body having a circumferential sidewall extending around an inner space of the capsule, said inner space being at least partially filled with a beverage ingredient suitable for preparing the beverage, —a base wall covering the inner space at a first end of the sidewall, —a flange arranged circumferentially around an open side of the capsule at a second end of the sidewall of the base body opposite the base wall, —a lid covering the inner space and the open side of the capsule at the second end of the sidewall opposite the base wall and tightly closing the capsule, the lid being removably attached to the flange of the capsule, —a filter element positioned in the inner space of the capsule between the beverage ingredient and the lid; and—a carrier disk provided in the inner space of the capsule between the lid and the filter, said carrier disk comprising multiple preformed outlet openings suitable for draining the prepared beverage from the inner space outside of the capsule when the capsule is used in the beverage preparation device. According to the invention, the capsule comprises at least one mechanical deformation at the junction or in the vicinity of the junction of the flange and side wall of the capsule, said mechanical deformation retaining the carrier disk inside the inner space of the capsule. The invention also relates to a manufacturing method for manufacturing said capsule and to the use of said capsule.
