Floor corkers are great!

[COLObrewer]

We bottled up 54 bottles of cherry wine and melomel yesterday and man, the floor corker alone is well worth the $250 we paid for all the wine stuff last year. It reduced corking time by 10 fold, now if we could just find a way to reduce the cleaning/sanitizing by 10 I'd be a happy wino!!

No pic of the corker?

Oh you want to see what I actually posted about? HEhe, here's a pic of when we picked it up, it's the blue thing in the lower left, it's a normal italian floor corker. And I was wrong, it was 100$ for all that stuff.

My LHBS owner has the same corker and let's me borrow it when I need it. I use it to cork Belgian bottles and the thing is badass. If I was into wine as much as I was beer I'd definitely throw down the money on one.

My SWMBO makes wine, and when it's time to bottle, we rent it for $4 a day from our LHBS. That thing is so awesome, it really makes the process fly by. We've never needed it more than a day, so it's worth it for us. Happy Corking!
