Frequently asked questions about Oxycaps

Why use oxygen-absorbing caps?

Oxygen in the bottle neck can oxidise the beer, so it loses hop flavour and can taste of cardboard. The liner in Oxycaps absorbs oxygen and protects the beer.

When should I sanitise the caps?

Just before bottling. The caps are activated by moisture, so they should not sit wet for long before use.

What do I need to fit the caps?

You need a capper for 26 mm crown caps.
