Bottling day!

The best thing about bottling day is the obligatory sampling... even at 9am!

This happens to be a mighty tasty batch indeed!!

Jim,

What the rough average cost/bottle for using zorks?

Good question! I've been lucky enough to get them at ~35¢ each because I get a 10% club discount. I've seen them online for 40-50¢ each. When I compare them to premium natural corks or synthetic corks, they cost just slightly more. The single biggest benefit to me is that the bottles can stand upright for 5+ years with no problems.

Jim,

Good to know and a great solution for people who may not be able to build a rack to lay the bottles down! Thanks for the information!
