My wine opener is pushing the cork into the bottle. Whats wrong?
1. You may be operating the wine opener backwards. When opening a bottle of wine, always begin with the handle in the ‘rear’ position and pull the handle forwards and down. Then stop and the bottle will be uncorked. If you start with the handle in the front, the opener will push the cork into the bottle. > Learn More… 2. The guide slug may be worn out. If the guide slug is worn, the auger cannot screw into the cork. You will need to replace your guide slug.
