As to the corks, Martina is correct. Use the #8 with a hand corker and #9 with a floor corker. You might also want to stick with #8 for 375ml, as they have a little smaller neck than the larger bottles.

MedPretzel said:This is my take on it -- people, correct me if I'm wrong:
I would go by what corker you are using. If using a hand (double lever) corker, go with #8.
If going with a floor corker, go with #9 corks.
From my experience, #9s are a bit thicker = harder to get in the bottle with a hand corker.
You can use either, though. Maybe someone else can comment further.
