The right bottle capping tools create a vacuum seal that prevents the product from contact with air that can affect taste and consistency. Capping machines are available for aluminum and plastic caps, in both manual and automatic versions. 

Manual Bottle Capping Tools

Makers of home-brewed artisan beers are more likely to use an affordable manual option like capping hand tools for bottling. Using manual bottling tools is also popular for people who bottle their own farm-fresh or organic food products like milk or fruit juice. In these cases, bottle funnels are invaluable for preventing mess and ensuring correct amounts. Bottle capping tools produce an air-tight seal between appropriately matched lids and bottles. Wing-style triple-hinged and bench cappers are the two most commonly used form of capping hand tools for smaller bottling operations. Hand operated grippers can attach to capping chucks and inserts to help tighten bottles. 

Choosing a Capping Machine

There are several options for capping machines, some apply the cap to the bottle and others require manual application of caps. High-volume bottling calls for automatic capping tools that can keep up with production speeds. Choosing the right capping machine is vital to properly sealing bottles with precision and speed, and locking out moisture and contaminants. Most screw-top capping tools work with aluminum and plastic screw caps, but this may vary by cap threading and style.
