When it comes to preserving and enjoying your favorite wines with Coravin Timeless, a common question arises: how many glasses of wine can you get out of a single Coravin Capsule? Greg, the founder and inventor of Coravin, shared some insightful details on this topic in a recent demonstration.
The Short Answer: 15 Glasses
Coravin recommends that you can typically expect to pour 15 five-ounce glasses of wine using one Coravin Capsule with Coravin Timeless. This estimate assumes an optimal pouring technique. However, there are some variables at play that can affect this number.
The Variables: Technique Matters
Just like driving a car, how efficiently you use your Coravin can influence the number of glasses you get from each capsule. If you pour slowly with short, controlled presses of the trigger, you'll use less gas per pour and get more glasses from a single capsule. On the other hand, if you pour quickly with longer presses, you’ll use more gas, and the capsule will run out sooner.
The Demonstration: Up to 23 Glasses!
In his demonstration, Greg showcased his optimal pouring technique by carefully measuring each pour. Using this method, he was able to get an impressive 23 glasses of wine from a single Coravin Capsule—and he still had a bit of gas left for possibly one more glass. By carefully managing your pours and being mindful of your technique, you might even be able to stretch your capsule to 23-25 glasses.
Conclusion: Maximize Your Pour
So, while 15 glasses is the standard, with a little practice and precision, you could enjoy up to 23 or even 25 glasses from a single Coravin Capsule. Next time you use your Coravin, experiment with your pouring technique to see how many glasses you can get.
