Heated Cover for LYSON Uncapping Table

01 · HOW IT IS USED

Melt, let it cool and drain

LYSON's manual puts it like this: fill the bench with cappings, put the lid on and set the regulator to 120 °C. How long the melting takes depends on the cappings.

When the melting is done, switch the lid off and let the wax set: it stays on top, and the honey is drained through the bench valve.

02 · AND THE HMF DOES RISE

It depends on temperature and time

The previous sheet said the honey comes out of here «without its HMF rising». That is not true of any heated honey: the honey leaves the lid heated, and HMF rises more the higher the temperature and the longer the heat lasts.

For many producers it is a fair price for recovering the cappings honey. What you need to know is that HMF accumulates: if that honey had already been liquefied, this pass adds to the previous one. The legal limit is 40 mg/kg.

03 · ONLY FOR A 1,500 STANDARD BENCH

And that is the real check

It is the lid for LYSON's standard (non-reinforced) uncapping bench, Langstroth, 1,500 mm, OPTIMA line. It does not fit another make, nor another size.

Our range has the equivalent 1,000 mm lid and the 1,500 for the reinforced bench, OPTIMA or CLASSIC (PG150LN_W). Measure yours before choosing: three similar lids that are not interchangeable.

04 · IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE BENCH YET

Compare before adding bench and lid together

If you already have the bench, this is an upgrade that uses what you have and takes up no extra floor.

If you do not have it, the sum is different: our range also has a «2-in-1» cappings melter.
