this was a wonderful find. I make about 100 gallons of wine per year. the greatest expense, other than the fruit is the bottles and corks. finding corks for a reasonable price is a great thing for me. thanks for being there: Papa Tracy
This corks are great for leak proof bottle sealing. Rinse them off, boil some water in your microwave, drop in these corks, stir, cover and steam for 2 minutes, and you are ready to pop them into your bottles for a clean, tight seal. I've been very satisfied.
I'm a fairly new wine maker and bought these to use for a new batch of wine I was making. The first set of corks I bought were number eights. Because I have been cleaning and re-using old bottles, I found that when I used number eights I would not always get a nice tight fit. It appeared that there was a slight variation in the size of the neck of the bottles. When I needed more I switched to these number nines which are slightly larger. They are a little harder to get into your bottle. I would recommend to at least have a two lever manual corker if you want to use these corks - not a plunger type. For me, these were a great improvement. I got a much tighter fit even though I used all different types and shapes of bottles. They made it a little harder to cork using a two lever manual corker but nothing that noticeable. The corks are a decent quality for the money and you get enough to last for about 5 cases worth of wine. After having these corks in wine that sat for a while, I found that they also held up over time. When de-corking, they were easy to get out and did not crumble like some other cheaper brands of corks I had bought in the past. I will definitely be buying this size and brand of corks again.
These worked great for my wine making project. i have a tone extra lol. Tip: you do wanna biol them in hot water for 5 monitues to kill any bactieria before corking your wine and it helps them to seal your bottles. great value for the product
I have been buying these corks for years for bottling wine that we make, but never really appreciated how good they are until I bought some cheaper ones (trying to save a few dollars). With the cheaper ones we had bottles of wine that leaked. Have never had that problem with these corks. They are good quality and seal well.
These # 9 corks worked fine strait out of the bag and into my floor corker. I’m reusing wine bottles having no issues with insertion or removal. Personally at 12 cents a piece I couldn’t care less about counting them,...I do care that an integral part of my production process works very well consistently so I’ll be staying with these beauties.
I love to do crafts and these corks are a fun way to do gifts and holiday decor. They are all the same size and have the same print. They are good quality and you get 100 in a bag for a really good price. I have ordered a couple of bags already and made a few gifts and will be ordering more. Everyone love the gifts I made out of these corks and my 4 year old daughter even started making her own gifts with these corks.

Great for home winemaking
I buy these over and over for corking my homemade wine and they get the job done. I have a bench style corker and they are great.
