Corkers

Fall Bright, The Winemakers Shoppe

 


The Gilda is a hand held, single lever corker with a plastic crimping iris, similar in design to the floor corkers.  This is a nice corker, however, it is not strong enough to put in agglomerated or plastic corks.  It is great for natural corks (premium and first corks) and has been a hit with a lot of our winemakers.  Tested and approved by female winemakers.  

 

      This double lever has a spring in bottom to hold the neck of the bottle.  The corker has double nuts at the top to adjust the ram length.

  This double lever has a clamp bottom to hold the bottle.  Both have double nuts at top to adjust the ram length.

 

Portuguese Floor corker is 27" high, with a delrin (plastic) iris.  Handles thermoplastic corks and composite cork well.  This corker has an adjustable platform that the bottle sits on which locks in place when the handle is lowered to push the cork in.  Ram length is adjustable.

 

  Italian Floor Corker is 33" high with a brass iris.  Handles thermoplastic corks and composite cork with ease.  This corker has an adjustable platform that the bottle sits on which locks in place when the handle is lowered to push the cork in.  Ram length is adjustable.  Blue and sometimes green.
