What size cork work with it?

Agreed, there is a reusable threaded cap that comes with the container. The interior diameter of the bottle is 1 9/16" if you want to cork it for some other purpose.

I don't know about the cork because I use the caps which work wonderful. I am sorry I could not be more helpful.

The corks are about 1 1/2" long and seem to be a #8 in size. Can be pretty tough to install with my plastic plunger. But I do lightly steam them, so there is some swelling.

It works on most bottle, there is only 1 my husband found wouldn't work in it. It's a big blue bottle, the top sort of goes out at the top. It's the only 1 that won't work in it. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a good corker at a decent price. My husband LOVES his, says "It's so slick & easy" to use.

Smaller ones, yes larger bottles if you turn them cork down I always turn mine down and the smaller bottles do fit better.

I use a funnel with a quarter inch diameter stem, and it works well. The opening in the bottle neck is slightly larger...maybe 5/8 inch. Hope this is helpful information.

It fits on all of the 750s I have. It's a tight fit to push through by hand, you may want a bottler if you don't have one. You can also steam the corks for 10 ish min before bottling for a softer push.

I got #8 straight corks from amazon and they were to big so a size smaller maybe.

I used a 5/8 inch and it worked well, however, I did not try the other sizes and I'm not sure what the company recommends.

I put one in a JD bottle, but I think it was the smaller bottle. Doesn't have a size on it. It fits loosely in there, the metal ring pretty much just sits on the top of the bottle. I had to cut down the smallest rubber "cork" piece that came with the kit to fit it in a kinky liquer bottle if that's any help. Didn't seem to fit any bottles really well except a wine bottle. The kit's OK but wouldn't be my first choice, I guess. Plus, the directions say they have more pieces than what's included.

I would recommend the cork gasket... Keep in mind, these sheets are 8'' X 11'' ....If the cork would fail , maybe try the rubber based gasket... Was there any old gasket left upon removal , do you know what the old gasket material was/is...

If it is plastic carboy you need a bigger rubber bung, if glass you need a small rubber bung. And you can go to your local wine shop and purchase new bungs. The cork bung are just as good as the rubber o e.

Your bottle needs an indentation hole on each side to hold the wire bale. the cork top probably fits, but the wire bale won't work. see a beer bottle that has a wire bale for understanding more.

So far as I can tell it works with 750ml and 1.5l bottles and any that will fit the base plate diameter. The bottom adjusts quite a bit for height, so that should accommodate many different height bottles. Standard size corks are fine - not sure about other sizes.

I used a standard wine bottle, it fits, and it stopped working immediately after.

Do you mean the wine bottle has a screw top instead of a cork? If this is the case, then Yes. As long as the bottle opening is the same, it works, regardless of the top.

I bought the standard size airlocks and with a bit of pressure they fit snug. wish I knew the cork size though
