Bench Top Corker
£55.00More information
This is a single-lever bench top corker suitable for both enthusiastic amateur and professional winemakers. With the lever raised simply place a bottle on the platform and a cork between the jaws. As the lever is lowered the platform is initially locked vertically, the cork is then compressed and finally the plunger pushes it into the bottle to the pre-set depth.
The overall height, with the lever down, is 69cm. The stand cross member is removable so that this corker can be stored flat. -

This manual stand corker is a wonderful two in one corker/capper, suitable for normal sized wine corks & with the supplied adaptor for beer crown caps (26mm diameter). With the handle down this substantial corker has an overall height of 95cm. It is fitted with brass cork pressers and is suitable for regular use.
An ideal gift & a beautiful addition to stock equipment. -
Hambleton Bard Hand Corker
£3.75More information
Before being inserted in the bottle the corks will need to be softened and sterilised by soaking them overnight in a Campden solution.
To use, separate the plunger from the main body and place the softened cork inside.
Make sure that the bottle is standing on a sold foundation, place the corker vertically on top of the bottle and firmly depress the plunger to drive the cork into the bottle.
This is not as easy to use as the other corkers we show but it is a lot cheaper! -
The Easy Corker
£16.99More information
With the metal handles up, and the corker placed on top of the wine bottle, a cork is inserted into the slot provided. Simply lowering the twin handles causes a spring in the main nylon body to grip the bottleneck, and at the same time the plunger pushes the cork into the bottle.
No wonder they call this the Easy Corker! -
Three Lever Guilda Corker
£18.95More information
With the main handles spread apart a cork is inserted between the 4 moving jaws in the centre nylon housing. Then as the handles are brought together the cork is compressed so that it can easily be inserted into the wine bottle. Just sit the corker on the wine bottle, hold the main handles together with one hand and push down the third (metal) handle with the other and the cork will pop in!
A few tips about corking. Always use silicone or waxed corks, as these do not need to be soaked. And always stand the bottle on the floor so that you can give a good push and the job is so much easier!
