I was recently given a fancy crank bottle opener, and the other night (after a couple samples of JAOM and BOMM), I pushed when I should have pulled, and it shot the cork into the bottle.
So, seeing as you guys and gals have been so generous with your tricks and tips, I figured I'd share this little gem in case this ever happens to any of you.
First step: drink the bottle of wine.
No pictures necessary.
Second step: Get a thin cloth. A cloth napkin will work. I used some of that Under Armor stuff. Fold it into a pouch.
I was also a little tipsy, so I used a chopstick to help save time (control).
Third step: Insert into bottle, use stick to open pouch.
Three: Roll the cork into the pouch.
Four: Pull.
Voila! Bottle saved!
Cheers!
