Although our dual hinge waiter's corkscrew is designed to significantly reduce any cork
breakage, we all know a lot of things can go wrong when trying to drink a quiet glass of
wine after work. Occasionally you will encounter corks that break, crumble or otherwise
misbehave. And this can be all the more distressing when you are opening a special
bottle for special guests. So how does one negotiate through this embarrassment and
get on with the party?
Problem #1 - Part of the cork remains in the bottle's neck:
Here are a few suggestions. First is the obvious – try to gently extract the remainder by
inserting the corkscrew again but at a slight angle.
A second alternative, depending on the situation, is using a simple cork puller, which has
two prongs that slide down between the bottle and the cork. Gently move the prongs
back and forth, careful not to push the cork in further; then once you think that you are in
far enough, you pull and twist at the same time. This is the best devise we've found for
older corks.
Another handy devise is a cork popper. These gadgets involve the use of a needle that
is inserted through the entire cork then CO2 is sprayed in between the wine and the
cork. When done gently, the cork will magically rise out of the bottle.
Problem #2 - Pushing the cork in further and can't extract it:
Cover the top of the bottle with a cloth and push the cork all the way in. The cloth is for
catching wine that inevitably sprays out when the cork plunges. The best thing to do at
this point is to use a funnel and filter, then simply decant the wine into a clean container,
filtering out the cork and its particles. There are also inexpensive filters that are inserted
into the bottle like a regular cork.
