    Fantastic idea, never thought of sticking a crown cap on them. Will a standard lever capper work or is the diameter slightly different?

    cheers

      Standard capper is too small. the bench type have a different insert available which makes them 29mm

      I think the standard ones are 22mm

          Emily lever cappers have reversible jaws 22/29mm and are supplied with 2 cups (22 & 29mm) - I have 2, and Brupaks do the 29mm caps:




          P.S. Although I've loads of plastic undercaps left, I can't find any future replacements.
