Our Coravin-compatible capsules deliver professional-grade wine preservation while helping you save money without compromising on quality.

Understanding Coravin capsule compatibility and adapter requirements

Coravin wine preservation systems rely on specialized capsules with standardized A-type threading, which works perfectly with compatible alternatives. The key component for smooth operation is the detachable black plastic end-cap – simply transfer it from an empty original Coravin capsule to your new one to maintain an airtight seal.

These cartridges are available in two standard sizes: 21 ml (6.5 g) and 27 ml (8.5 g) steel versions. The larger size, commonly referred to as “A65 Professional” , matches the exact dimensions and threading of original Coravin A-series capsules. To ensure your Coravin system functions correctly, save the small black adapter cap when your original capsule runs out, then attach it to the new cartridge before inserting.

  1. Simple adapter process: Preserve the black cap from your empty original capsule
  2. Attach the cap securely to your new cartridge
  3. Insert the cartridge normally
  4. Operate your device as usual – the trigger mechanism and pour function remain unchanged

This compatibility works with all Coravin A-series models , including Professional systems. Once set up with the adapter, performance matches that of official capsules.

Advanced gas composition for superior wine preservation

Traditional pure argon capsules contain 100% food-grade argon , an inert gas that creates a protective barrier over your wine , preventing oxidation.

Argon 65 capsules typically blend 100% argon.

Our innovative oenological solution combines ultra-pure argon from Linde Gas (produced in the EU) with just 20% CO₂.

This 80/20 ratio preserves the wine’s natural qualities while the CO₂ gently enhances aromas, highlighting rather than masking the wine ‘s true character.

Our food-grade argon/CO₂ cartridges (80% argon /20% CO₂) use Linde’s oenological gas to provide a neutral preservation solution for any still wine , remaining fully compatible with Coravin when you transfer Coravin’s plastic end-cap adapter.

Lab tests confirm our cartridges keep opened bottles fresh for over 30 days. Each durable steel cartridge typically preserves about three standard 75cl bottles (≈18 glasses). They’re fully recyclable, sold in multi-packs, and include clear instructions for checking emptiness (when wine flow stops or by listening for a hiss), safely swapping cartridges between bottles, and observing recommended storage times (use within six months after piercing or by the expiration date).

Technical specifications and preservation performance

Lab tests show one cartridge can preserve up to 22 standard glasses (about four 75cl bottles), though practical use typically yields 18 glasses depending on trigger pressure and pour technique.

Gentle, controlled trigger presses maximize efficiency, while quick or forceful presses reduce the total number of servings.

Independent French lab tests confirm this gas blend maintains an opened bottle ‘s quality for 30 days or more when used correctly.

Using the same professional-grade gas found in wineries ensures stable, neutral preservation that won’t alter wine flavor or aroma.

The compressed gas gently pressurizes the bottle, ensuring smooth dispensing through the needle system.

Compatible with all timeless and pivot systems , it delivers consistent performance across every Coravin model .

Cost-effective professional wine access technology

Our capsules deliver premium gas preservation at a fraction of manufacturer prices—without compromising quality or results.

At the core of wine preservation systems like Coravin is the replacement of oxygen with inert gas to maintain wine quality after opening. Our cartridges utilize the exact same principle that powers the Coravin Timeless devices, creating an oxygen-free environment to effectively prevent oxidation.

Manufactured in the EU with Linde’s food-grade gas, our 27ml (8.5g) Argon+CO₂ cartridges (80% argon /20% CO₂) are specifically designed to preserve opened bottles, keeping still wines fresh for about 30 days. Extensive testing confirms each cartridge provides 18-22 standard pours . The recyclable steel canisters include clear instructions for checking gas levels, safe replacement procedures, and adapter usage. By retaining the original Coravin plastic cap, these refills work seamlessly with Coravin Professional capsule systems, offering an affordable way to maintain optimal wine preservation with argon protection.

Coravin capsules alternative

Comparing wine preservation systems and performance

For enthusiasts using wine preservation with Coravin devices, smart gas selection—like choosing argon gas for wine —can significantly improve preservation. Pure argon creates an exceptional oxygen barrier due to its heavier-than-air density and complete inertness. The essential component of Coravin that enables this protection is a precision-designed needle that allows pure argon gas interaction while keeping the cork undisturbed.

Argon capsules power Coravin devices by delivering the necessary inert environment for long-term preservation. The system employs a thin needle that pierces the cork for controlled access as the gas powers the Coravin pouring mechanism—this innovative design minimizes cork damage and preserves the bottle’s seal quality.

Both Coravin Timeless and Pivot systems rely on this gas-powered preservation method. While Coravin Timeless systems feature the traditional needle-through-cork approach, Pivot systems offer an alternative solution better suited for wines intended for quicker consumption.

Every preservation technique has its own strengths. The classic wine with Coravin Timeless system excels at protecting valuable vintages, allowing you to enjoy wine with Coravin technology when extended preservation matters most. Its precision engineering means you can pour from the same bottle for months—or even years—without compromising quality, making it ideal for expensive wines where each sip counts.

Alternative gas systems deliver similar results at a more affordable price. Whether you opt for original components or compatible alternatives, the principle remains the same: an inert gas barrier displaces oxygen, preventing spoilage while still letting you access and pour your protected wine .

Professional applications and convenience features

For casual enjoyment, universal capsules allow wine lovers to savor individual glasses at their own pace. The inert gas blend works just as effectively in a cozy home environment as it does in bustling wine bars demanding consistent quality and efficient service.

Sommeliers particularly appreciate wine with argon preservation when serving premium wines by the glass. The ability to maintain multiple open bottles without waste makes these systems essential for restaurants, wine bars, and tasting rooms.

Checking cartridge levels is straightforward: if wine stops flowing despite proper technique, press the trigger and listen for gas release. No hissing sound means it’s empty. Alternatively, you can remove the system head and check for residual pressure.

Partially used cartridges can be transferred to another bottle , provided there’s remaining gas and—when relevant—wine type guidelines are followed. This flexibility maximizes the cartridge’s value while maintaining quality across several bottles.

The spout design ensures a consistent flow regardless of which compatible capsule you use. Whether you choose a premium model or a budget-friendly option, each pour remains smooth and controlled, allowing precise serving portions.

Wine enthusiasts can freely explore both preservation methods to find the perfect balance of performance, convenience, and value for their collection and drinking preferences.
