There Is More Than 1 Way To Open Wine Bottles
Wine is sold in every country on the planet, and is a multi-million dollar industry. As wine become more and more popular, so there was an increasing array of methods developed to get the bottle open. Although the demand for these bottle opening devices had dropped recently due to the increase in screw top bottles, there are still a good number of corks out there that need removing and various different ways to do it.
Traditional Corkscrews – These have been around for a long time now and are still as effective as they ever were. Most people have some form of corkscrew in their home as part of their tableware sets, and if you know how to use one you can get a bottle of wine open in no time. There is effort involved in this method though and you need to have good use of your hands if you are to succeed.
Modern device – Advancements in technology have thrown up a number of different devices for making bottle opening a great deal easier. Some of these rely on advanced mechanics, like the winemaster corkscrew, which turn a straight forwards movement into a twisting one. Others rely on battery power that do all of the work for you, but you might as well buy a screw top if you need to use one of these
Saber - If you are the adventurous kind or a bit of a show off then you can saber a bottle of wine open. Victories where celebrated in Napoleonic times by taking a sabre to a bottle of champagne. This requires a bit of skill and essentially involves lopping off the top of a champagne bottle without damaging the rest of it. Just make sure there aren’t any crystal vases or bowls around when you swing that saber The head of the bottle is also required to be soaked in water before hand so that the cork swells up and then with a swift striking of bottle neck should take it off allowing you to quench your thirst.
