Hey everyone
I just bottled my banana wine but my 2 handled corker has let me down. It has 2 adjusting nuts on the corker but the problem is just picking up the corker causes the nuts to spin they are so loose. This led to 6 bottles of wine with **** looking corks, some of them, the center where the "pin" pushes, is level with the top of the bottle but the warped sides of the cork ride high etc...
Some other as you can see dont go in all the way and it really annoyed me as everything was going perfectly.
Looking at a new corker online the ones I have seen dont appear to have the 2 adjusting nuts.
The one I have is 10+ years old and where as the new corkers have 'rectangular' handles mine has circular handles.
I take it the new ones, as far as I can see don't have any adjusting nuts and work each time every time? If so I will pick one up I just wanted to check before placing an order.
Thanks
