Cork In My Wine

[jsmahoney]

Pepere, if you are of need of an assistant, with these bottles, I will be more than happy to help inspect and clear the cork particles from it's container.


George, glad your coming back from the bug! Yet, additional rest could help you from getting it back again! Rest and lots of "liquids"?!?!

 

[geocorn]

I have been drinking lots of liquids. Unfortunately, the liquids have been the non-alcoholic variety.

George! You need the alcohol to kill the germs!

Get well soon!

 

[Waldo]

George, glad you are feeling better. I am now toting a bottle of Zicam with me these days. Three times now I have felt the onset symptoms of the flu and immediately began taking the Zicam and so far it has worked great.

I am also firm believer in ZICAM, it is amazing stuff...we use the gel, as soon as you even think you might be getting a cold you put some in your nose...it works great....they also have nasal swabs and other products to keep a cold at bay...

We have had no problems using a Gilda Hand Corker with #8 corks...just can't use the bottles with flange tops with it.

We do the job together, I center the corker on the bottle top and Jim does the job...rarely have any trouble.

Med Pretzel said she could use it by herself...she said she missed her hand corker when she got rid of it.

I have the Portugeuse dble lever hand corker and never noticed the difference between 750's and 375's. All I use is 9's.
