This past Sat I was bottling my latest batch with my Red Baron capper, it started crimping the caps crooked. I started to worry about how I was going to finish this batch if this cheap capper craps out. (it turns out the capper bell was just loose). But, I was wondering if anyone's capper broke in the middle of a batch & what you did. The nearest LHBS is 45 miles away & closes at 7:00pm. Would it be a good idea to buy a good bench capper & keep my Red Baron as a backup? Or am I worrying too much? Are these cappers stronger then they feel?
