“Preserve wines for up to one month to enjoy a fresh taste weeks later!”
Today, we explain how to use the wine stopper accessory to extend the shelf life of opened bottles of wine. Preserve wines for up to one month to enjoy a fresh taste weeks later!
The wine stopper and accessory hose, both products needed for this wine sealing process, come free with the purchase of a JVR Vac100 Chamber Vacuum Sealer!
NOTE: The wine stopper accessory cannot be used to seal sparkling wines.
Benefits of the Wine Stopper
The wine stopper accessory (100-04) can be used to plug and vacuum seal opened wine. This accessory can preserve wines and keep wine fresh for up to one month. If you have open wine from a party or small gathering, use the wine stopper to elongate the wine’s lifespan!
Program the Vac100
Program a preset on your Vac100 specifically for sealing any half bottles or opened wine. This way, each time you go to seal the remaining wine in a bottle, the process is quick and easy.
After the unit is powered on, hit the settings button to access all programs. Select the program number that you want to save for wine sealing. Use the increase and decrease buttons to scan through your program list. Once you have selected a program, hit the settings button to adjust vacuum time (about 50 seconds in this case). Vacuum time can always be adjusted later. Next, hit the settings button again to adjust the sealing time to 0 seconds. Then, hit the settings button one last time to adjust the cooling time to 0 seconds. Remember to use the increase and decrease buttons to adjust times. When finished, hit the settings or stop button to exit and save out of the program set.
Sealing the Wine
Attach the wine stopper accessory over the top of an open bottle of wine. Next, grab the accessory hose. Now that your program is set and on the display, hit the pump button on the control overlay. Then, slide one end of the accessory hose over the vacuum port that’s inside the chamber of the Vac100. Place the other end of the hose over the head of the wine stopper.
Once you see the wine start to rapid boil, hit the decrease button to stop the vacuum cycle. The rapid boil indicates that your product has reached the maximum potential of vacuum draw on that specific bottle of wine. Pop the accessory hose off the head of the wine stopper and remove the other end of the accessory port. Your wine is now sealed!
This process significantly improves the preservation of leftover white and red wine. Are you looking for extra stoppers? Shop wine stoppers here.
