CETIE Guide 1 | Mecmesin

This guideline applies to the capping of still wines with a cork mouth finish as per CETIE data sheet GME 50.01 which has been used as a base for the European standard EN 12726. Contains reference to 'extraction force', 'cork dimensional recovery', 'checking spring and roller force of corking machine assembly'. Still wines are defined as having a level of carbonation below 1.2 grams per litre of liquid, and for which the over-pressure due to carbon dioxide is below one bar in sealed containers when kept at a temperature of 20°C.
