USEFUL
TIPS
CHANGING BETWEEN WINES:
Quickly PRESS AND RELEASE the Trigger to purge the Needle of residual wine
before pouring another wine.
GETTING THE MOST OUT OF EACH CORAVIN CAPSULE:
DO NOT unscrew the Cup until the Capsule is empty. All remaining gas will be
•
quickly released and wasted.
Before use, always check that the Needle is tightly screwed in place.
•
To reduce the overall use of gas, press the Trigger quickly, repeating only when
•
the pour slows. Holding the Trigger down for long periods of time wastes gas.
When ready to fi nish the bottle, pull the cork.
•
CAUTION: Use only offi cial Coravin Capsules. Coravin Capsules are specifi cally designed
for Coravin and are fi lled with 99.99% pure argon gas to ensure the best quality performance and
preservation of the wine.
