Can this be used to cork Champagne bottles? Thanks

My husband uses this on a variety of different bottle, he said it really works nice for all of them.

No, mushroom corks will not fit in this press. I also would not recommend using wine corks for bottling Champagne either, the carbonation will burst wine corks out. https://www.midwestsupplies.com/champagne-floor-corker.html?utm_medium=feeds&utm_source=google&gdftrk=gdfV24959_a_7c1306_a_7c6184_a_7c8258&gclid=CI2qzbGfsrgCFQik4AodbHEAqA This is what you are looking for

I asked my son and he thinks the corks are different for champagne so he isn't sure if this wine corker would work. I found a video on YouTube that might be informational. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYX9UQp-f3I

I don't think this corker can be used for champagne bottles as the push pin may need to be of a larger diameter so as not to push through a plastic champagne cork, nor does it compress the neck of the cork (but not the head) to fit it in the bottle if using a natural champagne cork - this corker is well suited to a straight bottle cork and works very well for its purpose.

Unfortunately no. The unit is too wide. You might be able to use the small (internal) tube as a racking cane for a wine bottles. haven't tried it thou.

I am using it on a beer bottle that's 9oz and it works great, much smaller but if the opening is the same as a champagne bottle it would work (it needs the lip to clasp on to, which is why a standard wine bottle doesn't work)

Not always. Many white wine, and ALL champagne, will not fit and spin. Some can be crammed in (at the risk of breaking the cooler), but they won't spin. If you want this to cool white wine bottles, I would recommend moving on to another cooler design -- this one can only cool a subset of white wines, and NO champagne.

it should have no problem drilling a wine bottle so long as you have the proper drill bit. The drill press is plenty powerful enough

Yes. That is exactly what I bought mine for. I have used in both champagne and wine bottles

I use both as there are two of us. I have never tried. Put a cork in it, Yara! Should work.

Have only used on champagne bottles and not very often since it is usually finished. The regular wine bottle sealer works great. Never spill a drop.

I've never used on champagne bottles but have used on ordinary carbonated soda bottles without any problems. Make sure you press down hard enough to keep the stopper on tight.

Champagne bottles tend to be wider at the bottom than wine bottles. Unless your champagne bottles are shaped like typical wine bottles, my guess is you will lose space for 1 bottle per row. As far as beer, same thing, if the shape is wider than wine bottles, you will lose capacity. The capacity stated really is for typical shaped wine bottles. Anything different will throw off your capacity.

Yes, the first cork I used it on was one of those rubbery composite corks. Worked great!

I wouldn't suggest it. They replace the cork in a wine bottle which might be hard to fill for juicing. You might be interested in the Wide Mouth attachment which inconjunction with Ball (or other) Sealing lids and jars. That might be great for juicing.

It is my understanding that there is a separate product for recycling plastic bottles, so my inclination is to say that the one listed for wine bottles would not work for the plastic. Having said this I haven't tried it for anything other than wine bottles, so I really don't know.

The description states that it can not be used with sparkling wines.Because beer has carbon dioxide in it this gas will be pulled from the liquid and the bottle will no longer be under vacuum. I have not used it on beer. I imagine the act of sealing it and only allowing a certain amount of the gases to escape will make it last longer, but it will not be as effective as it is on wine.

I have used this on wine bottles. And I don't know why you couldn't use it for carbonated beverages. But I found it hard to use because you have to pump it for a long time. I have used the other wine vacuum sealers. Such as - http://www.amazon.com/Vacu-Vin-3-Piece-Saver-Stopper/dp/B00004SAF4/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1381160966&sr=8-16&keywords=wine+vacuum+sealer

Absolutely! I used only glass bottles and it worked like a charm. Now my daughter is on to sippy cups and use this as a drying rack for my wine glasses! ;)

They should - as long as the champagne bottle doesn't have an oversized bottom, unusual size/shape
