I am curious to know how you cork bottles. Also are there any recommended sites for buying corks? I am not too bothered about corking wine but bottles of juice. We have plenty of wine bottles and so I am hoping to use those for bottling juices.
real corks are a bugger to put in, the machines do work but as shereen says still hard work we watched some workers corking wine in France and they still got breakages ,the best we saw was peter in our local wine tasterey. he put them in by hand with a twist and a slap ,he had it down to a fine art but we tried it and just got sore hands .plastic are far easier as bobquail said
sit down with a cupa and the urge will subside
Oh right well thanks for the info. Amazing what you can learn
I used to bold my cork for about 20 mins then push them in to get started and then use a polling pin to puss then in further pussing down on then on the floor and any cork sitting above the lip i cut off with a knife it was hard but did work. of the other end of a hammer that was flat.
Jade wrote that above cos its got a few spelling mastakes. bad girl
Is there much difference to normal Mutley? Now don't go blaming your daughter, bless her!
Did you not break any bottles doing it that way?
Hey!
Very well done, Jade.
At least, you got the corks into the bottles.
and that is the most important thing.
I promise you that many of us grown-ups are not able to that. It is really tricky and hard to do.
Please come back soon and write some more. We would love to hear from you again.
Nige, why don't you open a new member account for Jade - under your supervision, of course, at all times.
Never knowingly underfed
