I am looking for suppliers that produce oxygen scavenging crowns, specifically crowns that are not activated by heat.

We absolute filter our beers and do not pasteurize so the crowns can not be heat activated.
Any ideas?

Zapata produces the oxygen scavaging crowns that we use. Although I don't know if they make non-heat activated crowns. How else would you activate them?

I used to buy Oxygen Scavenging caps from Crown, Cork & Seal. If I needed a smaller quantity, such as a few boxes I found F.H. Steinbarts Wholesale in Portland to have a decent price. The caps I used were pry-off and were activated by contact with liquid.
