This, probably, happened with everyone - they wanted to please themselves with a glass of wine, they bought a bottle of wine, but they did not think how to open it, in the sense that they did not get a corkscrew. And now what to do, how to open wine without a spin? It turns out that this task is not so complicated, and there is more than one recommendation, how it is possible to easily open wine without a spin.
How to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew?
- If the hands grow from the right place, and at home there is a screw, a screwdriver and pliers, then the bottle can be opened with their help. First screw the screw into the cork, and then pull the pliers for the screw. A little effort and the bottle is open.
- You can replace the corkscrew with a penknife. It must be pushed deeper into the cork, and then, having folded the knife at a right angle, pull the cork out of the bottle.
- But how to open a wine without a corkscrew, if neither a knife nor tools are at home? You can try pushing the cork inside. But it does not always work out right away, so first you need to pat your palm on the bottom of the bottle or twist the bottle around its axis (three times clockwise, three against), or turn the bottle down with a neck, count to 10 and return the bottle to its original position. After one carrying out one of the proposed actions, the plug can be easily pushed with your finger inside the bottle.

The middle of a full plastic bottle is knocking on the bottom of a bottle of wine until the cork "crawls out" halfway, then it can be taken out by hand. Or tap the root of a thick book volume on the bottom of a bottle of wine, too, until the stopper can be easily removed with your hands. And you can put a bottle in the heel of shoes with a low heel and knock the shoe against the wall, until the cork comes out of the neck so that it can be easily pulled out by hand.
- There are, however, rarely, very "stubborn" traffic jams that do not want to leave their place of rage under any pretext. Then there is only one way - to crush the corks with a knife and gradually push it inside. Wine, of course, with crumbs will, but its taste will not lose. In the end, the drink and drain can be from the remnants of the cork.

And on the amount of air trapped in the bottle, and the amount of sugar in the wine, and the temperature at which the wine is stored. The warmer in the room and the less wine left in the bottle, the quicker the drink turns into vinegar. Usually, a couple of hours after the opening, the wine will be able to notice the changed taste and aroma, and after a couple of days it will be impossible to drink such wine.
