- Excellent closure Review by Jim
-
Value Quality Price What more can I say? You push them on with the heel of your hand or tap them down with a plastic mallet. No other seal is needed. Zork says they give them 5 years minimum life span. You have to have the correct bottles, which is easy if you buy bottles for the task. I use the amber hock bottles available here. No need to rest them on their side like corks... you can box them right back in the box the bottles came in and leave them upright with no concerns. Opening a bottle couldn't be easier... no cork screw is needed, and the zork makes a perfectly good closure to save a partial bottle in the fridge. I have nothing bad to say!!

- Holy Zork!! Review by jared

Price Value Quality I really like using these for liquor's..lemoncello and the like. But they do leak (at least when using Zork recommended ice wine bottle, ). I tried using a mallot and broke a bottle. You can wrestle with these and show everyone your red palm (like I initially did), or let them sit under your kitchen faucet for 30 seconds with HOT water running over them. They slide on much easier. No red palm or soar aching arms. Even my wife was able to Zork a few bottles with ease. These make a very attractive finish to your home brew!! 4 stars instead of 5 on quality since they will leak if Zorked bottle is left on its side (left mess is freezer and in car when transported).

- Best closure for the home winemaker Review by digifoto

Value Quality Price I hand pressed 90 of these zorks in an hour for my latest Blanc du Bois batch. The first few were awkward but I quickly became quite proficient. I wore a thin tight glove and used the heel of my hand near the wrist. Don't be bashful, just muscle them in. You MUST use the correct bottles - download the specs from the Zork website to be sure. Even 1/16th of an inch off will not seat properly. I leak checked each bottle under water and all passed. I heated and cooled a couple for several cycles and they still do not leak. I am impressed and quite pleased.
