What's the choice between solid rubber bungs and the plastic safety cork


Will one be better than the other ? Long term

Safety corks will allow the release of any build up in pressure. Have a couple myself, but tend to leave the airlock in at the moment as I've not gotten round to buying any more bungs/corks.
 
I always leave the airlocks on as after adding the campden and stabiliser and finings i often see bubbles going through the airlock.

If you need the airlocks for your next wine and have to choose between rubber bungs and plastic safety corks i would use the safety corks.
