Cap Catchers

Wall-mounted openers that catch the cap

A cap catcher solves the small annoyance of bottle caps ending up on the floor. It is a wall-mounted opener with a cup or magnet that catches each cap as it drops, so opening a round leaves no mess. The options here run from rustic cast iron with a hanging bucket to sleek stainless designs and magnetic openers that hold the caps on the front.

New to this? Our guide on how to choose wall-mounted openers and cap catchers helps you choose.

Cast iron, stainless or magnetic

Cast iron openers have a proper pub look and a sturdy feel, usually paired with a bucket or a narrow wall box that gathers the caps. Stainless is sleeker and easy to wipe clean. Magnetic versions skip the bucket and stick the caps straight to the plate, which is a neat trick and a talking point. Check the fixings so you can mount it on your wall or the side of a cabinet.

A feature and a great gift

A cap catcher is both useful and a proper feature for a home bar, and it makes a standout present for anyone setting one up. For a handheld backup, add a bottle opener, and browse the rest of the beer accessories range. More gift ideas in our beer gift guides.
