Uncapping Roller

The uncapping roller is a fast and efficient alternative to traditional knives. Featuring a series of sharp plastic spikes, it is rolled across the surface of the honeycomb to pierce the wax cappings. This allows the honey to escape during extraction while leaving the majority of the wax structure intact for the bees to quickly repair and reuse. 

• Pro-Tip for Northern Ontario: This tool is particularly effective for "cold uncapping" in our region. If you are extracting in a cooler Northern Ontario honey house where wax can be tough or brittle, the roller provides a quick way to open cells without the need for heat, ensuring you can keep your harvest moving even when temperatures start to dip in late August.
