So I brewed a Belgian and decided I was going to cork it. This lead me to buying a Collona corker, corks, etc. Anyway, I also have a small batch of barley wine I should bottle soon. I wanted to use some Dogfish 750 ml champagne bottles for the barleywine that so my questions are
1) Can I use Belgian corks in those Dogfish bottles? I know back in the day 90 and some others came in those bottles corked.
2) What is the best way to store a corked beer, upright or on its side?
3) I have read about using a rubber stopper cut in half to allow the corker to only insert half way. Does this only work on floor corkers or will it work on the Collona as well?
Thanks!
