Why do my corks keep popping out.

Your corks keep popping out because you have bottled your wine too quickly after the fermentation process. What is happening is that there is still some fermentation going on inside of your sealed bottle and the yeast is creating carbon dioxide which is expanding and pushing your corks out of the bottle.

How to prevent this is by checking your wine after you have put it inside the secondary fermentation chamber. If there is no extra pressure in there then you should be good to put your wines in the bottles.
