Five ways to close a bottle of wine without a cork
It's time for celebrations. Tables are filled with food and also with exquisite wine. However, the question arises of how to keep it properly if the bottle is not completely empty till the evening.
The editorial staff of Novyny.LIVE shares lifehacks.
Cling film
If there is no special cork, then thin cling film will "rescue". Take any other cork or similar object and wrap as much film as necessary around it so that it closes the bottle tightly.
Bag or glove
You can also close champagne using a regular plastic bag or cling film. A medical fingertip or part of a thin glove will also be suitable for this. The material should be stretched around the bottleneck and fixed with rubber bands. The bottle should be kept in the coldest part of the refrigerator, so that the gas evaporates more slowly.
Sparkling wine cork
A sparkling wine cork will also be suitable if you have one in your house. Such a cork expands and tightens, closing the upper part of the bottleneck, which increases the pressure inside. This is one of the best options.
Pour the wine
The remains of unfinished alcohol can be poured into a plastic or glass container that closes well. This will keep the wine in a usable condition for a longer time.
Wine pump
However, the best option remains a wine pump. It will help remove excess oxygen remaining in the bottle. They usually cost about 6 dollars and are very convenient to use.
