I usually cork using a rubber mallet and a plastic guide with plunger but I have a double lever corker and I wonder if there is a preferred cork size for that corker. I generally don't use 7 x 1 3/4 corks (they seem to be inserted too easily) but the corker seems to insert these better than #8 corks (8 x 1 1/2) which slightly deform at the top. Should I be using a different size cork?
