As requested, here is a link where I attempt to demonstrate how I use the coravin.
A few key points that has worked well for me -
- do not blow off the remaining argon into the glass you are pouring into
- extract the needle as quickly as possible once done pouring (leaving slight positive pressure in the bottle).
- leave the bottle upright for more than 5 minutes or longer if bottle/cork is cold.
I’m no expert but I was frustrated with coravin in the beginning and have worked with someone at the company to develop the method I speak of and it has worked well for me since. The only issue is I tend to use more argon than my pocket book wants me to…LOL
Cheers
