I pulled the trigger on these a couple of days ago.

I will let everyone know if they are at all worth it.

I have been using the FineVineWines Perfect Agglomerate corks fo many years and have never had 1 problem with them I will never switch unless some day I do have problem with them. They go in and come out nice and easy due to a paraffin wax on the outer edges and Ive had even some low abv mist kits last years with these corks. I refuse to budge and try to save a few pennies on something like this, it just isnt worth it IMO!

Let us know what U think? What does "long" mean 1½" or 1¾"

I agree with Wade. I also bought the same ones. The only reason I changed is because I have gone with personalized corks.

These arrived today!

They are excellent. These are 1" and 3/4 and lightly coated in parafin wax.
all of the ones that I inspected look very well made. I threw one into an empty bottle and one into a bottle filled with water without any problems. i am going to pull them out in a couple of weeks to see how they held up. But these look like the higher end corks that I have seen in the wine shops near me.

Baring any problems after this years bottling I would definately recommend these.

How are you going to store them?

 

[MFC]

Hi Dan - I was planning on storing them in paper bags. I had read that was the best way (I think somewhere on this site). Please tell me if thats wrong.

 

[Runningwolf]

Nope you got it right. Set it on door step, light it on fire and knock on the door. Oh wait a minute that was for dog dodo. Smart a**.

 

[Wade E]

Corkidor in case you arent kidding is the best way!

Sounds like a good deal! Keep us posted as to how they perform down the road!

 

[Runningwolf]
