Storing Wine in Your Wine Cooler

One benefit of your new wine cooler is that you can simulate the conditions of a wine cellar.
By using a wine cooler thermometer you can ensure a constant temperature of around 8°C - 18°C, which is
ideal for storing wine. Make sure that the bottles are lying on their sides. This ensures that the wine inside
is in contact with the cork, which stops the cork drying out, shrinking, letting air in and spoiling the wine.
After a bottle has been opened, the wine comes into contact with air which will start to oxidise the wine.
This generally occurs on the wine's contact surface, leaving the remaining wine in good condition. By
leaving your bottle standing, you minimise the surface area of the wine which is in contact with air.
If you're serving white, rose or sparkling wine, chill it lightly for at least 2 hours in the wine cooler before
serving. Most reds should be served at room temperature, or in the case of lighter reds like Beaujolais, very
slightly chilled.
Opened wine will remain in good condition for up to 2 days (for delicate whites), or 3 days (for rich reds), as
long as the bottle is resealed and stored in your wine cooler. Special stoppers that keep sparkling wine and
champagne bubbling for 1 or 2 days after opening can be bought at most good wine shops. When storing
leftover wine, attempt to minimise the oxidation process of the wine. You can use a 'vacuum' which pumps
out the air in the bottle leaving a semi-vacuum. The wine should last for about two weeks.
However, if it is a good quality wine and you intend to finish it within one week, all you'll need to do is to
replace the cork and leave it standing in your wine cooler.
Different wines are best kept at different temperatures.

Filling Your Wine Cooler

When filling your wine cooler the greater the amount of cans and bottles placed inside the wine cooler
from room temperature, the longer it will take to cool them to the desired temperature. You may wish
to temporarily adjust the temperature to a lower setting to speed up the cooling process. If you do this
remember to return it to the previous setting once the drinks have reached the required temperature in
order to conserve energy.

Keep the Door Closed

To prevent cold air escaping, limit the number of times your open the door.
