How many bottles can I tap with one gas cartridge?
The number of 0.75cl bottles can vary between 3 and 5 depending on the use. The harder you pull the trigger of the gun, the faster you serve but also consume gas.
The average consumption is one cartridge for 3 bottles. This allows you to serve at least 18 standard sized glasses!
How do we know that a gas canister is empty?
If pressure on the pistol grip no longer pushes wine into your glass, the cartridge is empty. Without altering your wine, a cartridge can be replaced without risk when a bottle is not completely finished. If the pistol is detached from the central cupola, it is enough to operate a pressure on the handle and to hear or not a hissing to see if there is still gas.

Before throwing away a cartridge, it is recommended to completely empty it by pressing the handle before removing it from the tank, this is without danger. The gases come from the atmosphere, so there are no ecological and health risks.

What should I do to change cartridges between two bottles, or to change bottles while keeping the same cartridge?
Before changing the cartridge, check that the current cartridge is empty, ensuring that the wine no longer rises in the glass. If this is not the case, empty it using the gun, according to the above procedure. It is no problem to switch from one bottle to another with the same cartridge.

What do we do with empty cartridges after use?
The steel cartridges are recyclable in selective sorting with household metals such as tin cans.
What is the lifespan of a cartridge?
If the cartridge is impacted, it is advisable to use it within six months. If the cartridge is not impacted, you must refer to the expiry date indicated on the box.
