Coarse-mesh cappings bag to recover the honey from cappings by spinning them in your own extractor: hangs in the basket by hooks. The coarse mesh drains fast and clogs less. 330 × 230 mm. Balance the extractor when spinning. Also in fine mesh.
After uncapping, a fair amount of honey stays in the cappings. Instead of a separate spinner, this coarse-mesh bag spins them in your own extractor: load the cappings, hang it in the basket by its hooks and the honey comes out as it turns. The cheapest way to dry cappings.
Fill the bag with the cappings and hang it in the tangential extractor basket with the steel hooks. As it spins, the honey passes through the mesh and the cappings drain. The coarse mesh drains faster and clogs less, ideal for moving plenty of cappings without losing time (it does let a little more fine wax through, which you catch later when filtering).
Important: when spinning, balance the basket. On even-frame extractors, use two bags in opposite positions; on odd-frame ones or with a single bag, counterweight it with another sack or a frame of similar weight, to avoid vibration and the extractor walking. Bag size 330 × 230 mm. Want cleaner honey out? It also comes in fine mesh.
