What is the best way to stop champagne going flat?!


Question: What is the best way to stop champagne going flat!?
(other than drinking it fast or spilling it all over your floor (oops!)
i heard it was to stick the end of a teaspoon it it!.!. though im not sure that makes sense as you obviously couldnt cover it if you had a teaspoon sticking out of it so that would make it lose its bubbles faster!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

try wine stoppers!.!.I did 2 nights ago my husband didn't want to drink and I couldn't drink all by myself so I used the wine stoppers and it was good the next day still had the bubbles and it even popped cuz of the pressure when I opened it!.!.but 1 day is good , don't expect any bubbles after 2 days =)

spoon will not do it, thats a myth!.

you could try sealing it well between pouring, but if its a common problem, you might want to look at the soda makers that actually put carbon into drinks!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

How odd!. There's never been this phenomenon of "leftover champagne" in my house!. Mix it with orange juice and call it a mimosa!.

You mean you actually have leftover champagne!?

My suggestion is to simply buy a smaller bottle!. There is no way to preserve the bubbles well enough!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Actually, you will find that even if an open bottle of champagne has been left overnight, it will still retain its fizz without having to use teaspoons/stoppers etc!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
