What can I do with left over corks?

The simple answer is: Anything that you can think of.

It all depends on your own creativity. If you are not that much of a creative person and need to be inspired to do something crafty then here is a list of some neat things that you can do with your left over corks.

1. Make a cork board.

2. Place them in a large vase near your wine cabinet.

3. Make a cork gun. Like a potato gun but for corks.

4. Make a floor mat.

5. Make a floating pool chair.

6. Cat toys.

7. I'm out of ideas, but here is a link to some awesome ones with pictures.

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.
