Why you need a wine dispenser
Primarily, a wine dispenser provides two benefits. First of all, it helps you to preserve your wine once it’s opened. In an opened bottle it is likely to only last for about 3 – 5 days before it starts losing its quality.
With a wine dispenser, however, you can easily extend wine expiry period beyond five days, lasting up to three weeks sometimes.
Secondly, many people tend to waste a significant portion of their wine only in the process of pouring. Again, you need a wine dispenser if you want to eradicate the habit of wasting your precious wine. A good wine dispenser helps to prevent spillage when pouring your wine into a cup, which is a reason worth making the investment for.
Features to consider while choosing a wine dispenser
If you’re looking to buy a wine dispenser, it is vital to know the major features that are available to you. Most significantly, it is important to fully understand the features that are important to you, which is why we’ve included this part to show you the key features.
Which wine packaging it works with
Different wine dispensers work with different types of packaging, so it is of utmost importance to know the type of packaging the model you want to choose works with. This usually boils down to the versatility of the device, and while some dispensers like the NutriChef Electric Wine Aerator Dispenser and the Yollex Automatic Wine Decanter Dispenser work with all common wine bottle shapes, some only work with a couple of shapes.
Capacity
To select the ideal capacity of wine dispenser, you need to take into consideration both your present needs and future needs. If you are buying a commercial wine dispenser, for example, you need to consider the long-term plan of the business. If you do intend to expand in the future, then you’d need to consider a four-bottle capacity like the Vinotemp VT-WINEDISP4SS at least. However, if you have no expansion plans, you may just stick with a model with a smaller capacity.
Charging time/which batteries are needed
You don’t need a dispenser that will fail you in times of need, especially if you run a wine business or if you often have lots of visitors. Therefore, you need to consider the charging time and battery strength of the model you’re looking at. Of course, you need to choose a model with the shortest charging time possible and with the strongest batteries. An example of a model with a powerful battery is the Yollex Automatic Wine Decanter Dispenser.
Dimensions
Obviously, the size of your wine dispenser is another key factor you must consider. For some models, it will be determined by the dispenser’s capacity. However, before buying any model, we’d advise you to ensure there is enough space to put it at your home. Once that’s settled, then you won’t really have any problems.
Extra features
Everyone loves a product that offers more than what’s expected, certainly. While these dispensers are engineered to pour a bottle in a convenient way, we also love it when they come with a couple of other features to improve the taste of your wine.
One important extra feature is the ability to aerate the wine apart from dispensing it, which is a feature you can find on models like the Belwares Electric Wine Bottle Dispenser and the NutriChef Electric Dispenser. You may also check for some other extra features like LED displays and visible windows, which helps you pour an accurate volume of wine.
