An air pump corkscrew is the easiest corkscrew to use. It requires little or no skill and efficiently removes difficult corks from a bottle of wine. If your manual dexterity skills leave something to be desired, try an air pump corkscrew at your next dinner party.
Instructions
1. Understand that an Air Pump corkscrew works by forcing air into the bottle, which then forces the cork up and out.
2. Insert the needle through the cork. Be sure to insert the needle all the way down to the bottom of the cork or the corkscrew will not effectively push the cork up and out of the bottle.
3. Grasp the handle firmly and begin pumping action. Begin slowly pumping air into the bottle to force the cork out.
4. Stop pumping air into the bottle when the bottom of the cork gets near the top of the bottle. Remove the air pump corkscrew and grasp the protruding cork in the palm of your hand, then gently wiggle the remainder of the cork out of the neck of the wine bottle.
