Bubbl.® champagne and sparkling wine gas capsules: how they work
Bubbl.® brings preservation technology to the moments when sparkling wine is hardest to keep at its best. It is the right choice when you want to reopen a bottle days later and still pour with confidence.
Bubbl.® capsules are manufactured in the European Union and filled with food-grade oenological gas supplied by Linde Gas. Concretely speaking, your wine is protected with the same type of gas expertise trusted in serious wine production.
What the spec sheet won’t tell you is how this matters at the second glass. Your wine tastes as it did when first opened, with the mousse still precise and the aromatics still clean.
These champagne gas capsules contain CO2 and nitrogen and complete the Bubbl. set for preserving Champagne, traditional method sparkling wines, Cava, Prosecco, and Franciacorta.
The Bubbl.® capsule CO2 27ml – 20g is compatible with the Coravin Sparkling system.
How our sparkling wine capsules preserve champagne
Bubbl.® sparkling wine capsules use a neutral gas blend of CO2 and nitrogen manufactured by Linde, a world leader in oenological gases. When injected into the bottle, the gas compresses the CO2 already dissolved in the wine and shields it from oxidation.
What actually changes is what you experience in the glass. The Champagne keeps its bubbles, freshness, and aromatic definition instead of flattening overnight.
Wikeeps® capsules are manufactured in the European Union and contain food-grade oenological gas supplied by Linde Gas.
As a mark of consistency and performance, Linde’s gas expertise is recognised worldwide. In practice, that means stable preservation bottle after bottle.
Used in the vats of some of the greatest châteaux, these gases meet the level of care fine bottles deserve. The right choice when you are serving prestige cuvées by the glass or saving the final pours for another service.
Each 27ml Bubbl.® sparkling wine capsule can preserve and serve a minimum of 7 bottles of 75cl Champagne or sparkling wine.
Independent laboratory testing in France showed preservation performance of up to one week. Concretely speaking, an opened bottle can return to the table several days later with its structure intact.
With the trigger mechanism, each press releases gas to create a neutral protective atmosphere with no taste or smell. This protection prevents oxygen from dulling the wine between services.
The stopper seals the bottle securely. Protected from oxidation, Champagne keeps its bubbles and aromas for up to a week after opening.
Ten years of experience and two patents in wine preservation led to the development of Bubbl.®. These products are recognised and used by professionals around the world.
Sparkling wine capsules: frequently asked questions
What makes Bubbl. sparkling wine capsules different?
The capsule format and thread are identical to standard systems. What actually changes is the oenological gas formula: 80% CO2 and 20% nitrogen, developed to improve sparkling wine preservation.
This blend has a double role. It compresses the CO2 already present in the wine while also protecting it from oxidation through inerting.
How many bottles does each capsule preserve?
With a 27ml capsule, you can preserve at least 7 bottles of Champagne, often more depending on service use. By pressing the trigger, the gas passes through the Smart Cap, which regulates pressure in the bottle between 2.5 and 3 bars.
The same principle as with still wine preservation applies here. Oxygen is expelled, and the wine remains protected for later service.
How do I know when a capsule is empty?
The first thing to look at is the trigger response. If pressing the trigger no longer releases gas, the capsule is empty.
When the device is in your hand, press the trigger and listen for a hiss. If there is no sound, there is no gas left for preservation.
How should I dispose of empty sparkling wine capsules?
Before discarding a capsule, it is recommended to empty it completely by pressing the handle before removing it from the system. In practice, this is safe, and the gases released come from the atmosphere.
There are no health or environmental risks linked to the gas itself. The steel capsules are fully recyclable with household metals, such as food tins.
Before changing the capsule, check that it is empty by confirming that no gas escapes when you press the trigger. Unscrew the black handle, recycle the used capsule, then screw in the new one firmly.
What is the shelf life of these capsules?
If a capsule has been damaged, it is advisable to use it within six months. If it has not been damaged, refer to the expiry date shown on the packaging.
Because the gas is food grade, all capsules have a legal shelf life of 5 years.
