wax cap Explanation: I would use this term as it seems to be covered sufficiently to be recognised in the area. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 43 mins (2014-10-09 19:42:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Uncappings" This website uses the term "uncappings" to describe the wax cap once it has been removed from the honey: "Each cell of the comb containing honey is sealed-off with a wax cap made by the bees. The first thing the beekeeper must do is to remove the wax caps, either with a preheated knife or an automated uncapper. Automated uncapping machines use moving chains or bristles to create friction which removes the caps. The wax that is removed (known as UNCAPPINGS) is then heated and slowly drained of honey, and later used in beeswax production. " http://www.thebeerfiles.com/honey-part-i-what-is-honey-how-i...
