Can you use nine kinds of bottle openers?
With the development of wine industry and beverage industry, people have developed a variety of bottle openers. Here are nine kinds of bottle openers and how to use them!
First: Porter's pincers: opening a bottle of old wine with feathers
For a bottle of old porter wine, we must sacrifice Porter tongs to open the bottle. Long aging makes the cork rotten, and the sugar content of Porter wine is high, the cork is easy to stick to the bottle, and the use of the general way of opening the bottle will cause wine pollution.
① Heat the forceps until red;
② Clamp the bottle neck with the part bent into an arc, and keep heating for about 1 minute at the position higher than the liquid level.
③ After heating, take a feather dipped in ice water, and then gently sweep the heated part, the glass will break because of uneven heating.
④ As long as Porter's forceps are high enough, they will break quickly. There is no need to worry about broken glass falling into the wine. If you don't feel at ease, you can taste the wine first, and then use the decanter to filter.
The second: the most luxurious and expensive wine knife
In addition to the ordinary way of opening sparkling wine, there is the use of the champagne knife, which is a classical way of opening bottles inherited from ancient Europe. It is generally used in formal occasions, ceremonies, or to set off the atmosphere.
① After the champagne is chilled, wipe the water off the bottle;
② Make sure not to shake the bottle, then gently remove the aluminum foil from the bottle mouth;
③ Find the intersection of the two welding seams of the bottle body, and then use the back of the knife to cut down at an angle of 45 degrees;
④ Don't aim at people. You can also practice with kitchen knife / fruit knife at home.
Third: electronic bottle opener
Full automatic operation, the whole process only takes a few seconds, the real speed, light, labor-saving, but the price is a little more expensive.
The fourth clock: air pressure bottle opener -- wine "pump"
Based on the principle of vacuum pressure, air is injected into the bottle like an inflatable cylinder to make the cork pop up automatically, and the bottle can be opened easily with no effort. It is said that this kind of bottle opener is also suitable for old wine. Prevent cork from breaking and falling into wine during bottle opening.
