Rubbish. They have only been routinely available for about twenty years. Bees have been capping honey for millenia. Just shows there are still lots around that don’t know how to use them properly.

If the bees cap honey and it's the wrong side of the legal threshold percentage for selling then at the end of the day trading standards will not accept the "It's capped .... doing it for millenia" argument.

Trading standards budget has been so severely cut I'm not sure if they still exist in some locals? They might test your honey if there is a complaint but routine testing????
 
Thank you everyone for your suggestions; not just for equipment, but also for methods. Much appreciated.
