I received some bottles from a friend and I noticed some of them looked like smaller openings so I measured them.
Half the bottles are 18.5mm so they should not be too much of an issue but the other half are only 18mm, standard size is 19mm.
Now the question, I use #9 corks with a floor corker, I imagine I wouldn't have a problem getting the corks into those bottles but getting them out later might be an issue.
I hate to buy smaller corks just for a hand full of bottles.
Would you cork them up with the #9? buy #8 corks (maybe get some more smaller bottles before they dry out too much)
or just not use the bottles?
