An essential component of the Coravin wine opener, the Coravin capsule preserves the wine and pressurizes the bottle to let its content flow through the Coravin needle. Changing the Coravin capsule is easy but can be quite tricky. Just open the capsule cup to access the old argon cartridge and install a new one. But one wrong move and you may end up losing all the argon gas. This post will provide everything you need to know about replacing an empty Coravin capsule with a loaded one. What You’ll Need Coravin Wine Preserver It doesn’t matter which wine system model you are using. The Coravin capsule is compatible with all Coravin wine preservation systems.

If you are a frequent user of the Coravin wine system, you may opt for the Coravin capsule subscription to save money. Remember that you can only use a Coravin capsule to replace the empty argon cartridge in your Coravin system. Alternative argon capsules will not seal accurately and may cause gas leakage.
