Key specifications

• Mechanism: Spiral screw with dual-lever wings
• Material: Durable metal construction

How to use

To use the KETLER Elly, first remove the foil from the bottle neck. Position the spiral screw in the center of the cork and rotate the top handle clockwise until the screw is fully embedded. As you turn, the wings will naturally rise. Once the wings are fully extended, grasp both wings firmly and press them downward simultaneously. This action will smoothly extract the cork from the bottle with minimal resistance.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the corkscrew is cleaned by hand to maintain its finish
• Check that the bottle neck diameter is standard for optimal stability
• Consider the storage space available in your kitchen

Usage recommendations

For the best results, always ensure the spiral is centered before twisting to prevent the cork from splitting. After use, wipe the spiral with a damp cloth to remove any residue and keep the mechanism moving smoothly.
